No photo upload
HEIC decoding, JPG encoding, previews, and ZIP creation happen locally in the browser. Originals never reach Toolkit servers.

How it works
Compatible JPG photos in three steps.
The decoder loads only when it is needed. Each photo is processed sequentially in the browser, then the decoded pixels are encoded as a standard JPG at your selected quality.
- 01
Add HEIC photos
Choose or drop up to ten HEIC or HEIF images from an iPhone, camera, or photo library.
- 02
Choose JPG quality
Use a smaller, balanced, or maximum-quality setting and select the fill used for any transparent pixels.
- 03
Preview and download
Inspect each compatible JPG, download it individually, or package a finished batch in one ZIP.
Private by design
Modern photo decoding without an upload queue.
Useful batch workflow
Queue up to ten photos, process them sequentially to control memory use, inspect individual failures, and download successful results together.
Honest conversion controls
Original pixel dimensions are retained, JPG quality is explicit, metadata is removed, and transparent pixels use the background you choose.
HEIC conversion questions
Quality, metadata, Live Photos, and compatibility.
Why convert HEIC to JPG?+
HEIC stores modern phone photos efficiently, but some websites, forms, editors, and older devices do not accept it. JPG is much more widely supported.
Does conversion reduce image quality?+
JPG is a lossy format. The balanced 92% setting usually keeps strong visual quality, while 100% uses more space and still cannot make JPEG mathematically lossless.
Are the original dimensions preserved?+
Yes. Toolkit uses the decoded primary image at its original pixel width and height. It does not resize or crop the photo.
What happens to EXIF and location metadata?+
The JPG is newly encoded in the browser and does not retain EXIF, GPS, camera, or other source metadata. This improves privacy but removes capture details and location.
What about Live Photos or multi-image HEIC files?+
The converter exports the primary still image. The paired Live Photo video, bursts, depth maps, and alternate HEIF images are not included in the JPG.
Why can a HEIC file fail?+
A damaged, encrypted, extremely large, or uncommon HEIF file may use a codec or structure the browser decoder cannot handle. The original file is never modified.
