How to Convert HEIC to JPG
Upload Your HEIC Files
Click "Select Files" or drag and drop your iPhone photos directly into the converter. You can convert multiple HEIC images at once—up to 100 files in a single batch.
Adjust Quality Settings (Optional)
Choose your preferred JPG quality level. Higher quality preserves more detail but creates larger files. We recommend 85-95% for the best balance between quality and file size.
Download Your JPG Images
Once conversion is complete, download your images individually or all at once as a convenient ZIP file. Your converted JPGs will work on any device or platform.
Real-World Conversion Examples
Here are common scenarios where converting HEIC to JPG is essential:
Convert iPhone Photos for Windows
Windows 10 and older versions don't natively support HEIC files. Convert your iPhone photos to JPG to view, edit, and share them on Windows PCs without installing additional codecs or software.
Upload to Social Media Platforms
Some social media platforms and older websites don't accept HEIC files. Convert to JPG before uploading to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram stories, or professional networking sites like LinkedIn.
Email Photos to Anyone
Ensure your email recipients can view your photos regardless of their device or email client. JPG is universally supported across all email platforms, making it the safest format for sharing via email.
Print Photos at Local Shops
Most photo printing services (Walgreens, CVS, Costco, local print shops) require JPG or PNG files. Convert your iPhone HEIC photos to JPG before submitting print orders online or at kiosks.
Upload to Websites & Forms
Many online forms, job applications, and CMS platforms don't support HEIC uploads. Convert profile pictures, product photos, or document scans to JPG for seamless website compatibility.
Edit in Desktop Photo Software
Popular photo editing tools like Photoshop (older versions), GIMP, Paint.NET, and many budget editing apps work better with JPG files. Convert HEIC to JPG for broader software compatibility.
Share Between iPhone and Android
Android devices (especially older models) may not display HEIC images correctly. Convert to JPG when sharing photos between iPhone and Android users via messaging apps, cloud storage, or USB transfer.
Archive Family Photos Long-Term
JPG is a mature, stable format that's guaranteed to be supported for decades. Convert your important family photos from HEIC to JPG for long-term archival storage and future-proof compatibility.

HEIC to JPG FAQ
Why are my iPhone photos in HEIC format?
Since iOS 11, Apple has used HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) as the default photo format for iPhones and iPads. HEIC offers superior compression compared to JPG, meaning your photos take up less storage space while maintaining high quality. However, HEIC isn't widely supported on Windows, older Android devices, or many web platforms, which is why converting to JPG is often necessary for sharing and compatibility.
Will I lose quality converting HEIC to JPG?
The quality loss is minimal when converting HEIC to JPG, especially at higher quality settings (85-95%). JPG uses lossy compression, but at high quality levels, the difference is imperceptible to the human eye for most photos. Our converter uses advanced algorithms to preserve as much detail as possible. For critical professional work, we recommend using the 95% quality setting.
Can I convert multiple HEIC files at once?
Yes! ConvertFast supports batch conversion of up to 100 HEIC files simultaneously. Simply select multiple files when uploading, or drag and drop an entire folder of iPhone photos. All images will be converted to JPG at once, and you can download them individually or as a single ZIP file for convenience.
How long does HEIC to JPG conversion take?
Conversion is nearly instant! Since processing happens directly in your browser, there's no upload or download time. A single HEIC file typically converts in under a second. Even large batches of 100 high-resolution iPhone photos can be converted in 10-30 seconds, depending on your device's processing power. Desktop computers and newer smartphones will process files faster than older devices.
Can I resize images while converting?
Yes! ConvertFast allows you to resize images during conversion. Choose custom dimensions, resize by percentage, or select from social media presets like Instagram (1080×1080), Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and more. You can maintain aspect ratio or specify exact dimensions. This is perfect for optimizing images for web, social media, or reducing file sizes.
Does conversion preserve EXIF metadata?
By default, ConvertFast removes EXIF metadata for privacy protection. However, you can choose to preserve EXIF data including camera settings, GPS location, and timestamps by enabling the "Preserve EXIF metadata" option. This is useful for photographers who need to maintain image information. If you're concerned about privacy when sharing images online, use the "Remove metadata for privacy" option to ensure all location data and camera information is stripped from your converted images.
