HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the default photo format on iPhone (iOS 11 and later) and other Apple devices. It uses the HEIF standard to store images at roughly half the file size of JPEG while maintaining comparable visual quality.

Why convert HEIC to JPG or PNG?

HEIC is not universally supported. Windows PCs, many websites, and most image editing apps cannot open HEIC files without extra software. Converting to JPG or PNG ensures your photos work everywhere, no additional apps required.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. All conversion runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your photos never leave your device and nothing is sent to any server.

JPG vs PNG — which should I choose?

Choose JPG for smaller file sizes suitable for sharing photos and uploading to e-commerce platforms. Choose PNG if you need a transparent background or require lossless quality — for example, before running background removal.

Is there a file size limit?

There is no hard limit enforced, but files larger than 20 MB may cause slowdowns depending on available browser memory. For best results, keep individual files under 20 MB.
