iPhones save photos as HEIC, which some computers, websites and forms can't open. Choose one HEIC photo and you get a JPG of the same size.
The first conversion on a computer can take a few seconds while the converter loads. Everything happens on your device.

Questions
What is a HEIC file?
The format iPhones use for photos. Some computers, websites and forms can’t open it, but almost anything opens a JPG.
Does it work on Windows and Mac?
Yes, in an up-to-date Chrome or Edge, and in Safari on a Mac. The first conversion can take a few seconds while the converter loads.
Does converting lose quality?
The JPG keeps the same size in pixels and is saved at high quality, so it looks the same to the eye. Very large photos are made a little smaller on phones that can’t handle them, and you’re told when that happens.
Can I convert several photos at once, or to PNG?
Not yet: one photo at a time, to JPG.
Is the photo’s location kept?
No. Location and other hidden photo details are removed from the JPG.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. The photo is converted on your phone or computer. We only collect anonymous usage counts and error reports, listed on the privacy page.
