HEIC to JPG Converter — free, private, right in your browser
Convert HEIC to JPG in seconds. Your iPhone photos are decoded on your own device, so they are never uploaded anywhere. Batch convert up to 20 photos at once and download them one by one or as a single ZIP.
Convert HEIC to JPG online
To convert HEIC to JPG, add your .heic photos and press Convert. Files up to 30 MB each.
Everything happens in your browser — closing this tab removes everything. EXIF data such as GPS location is not carried into the converted file.
How to convert HEIC to JPG in 3 steps
No software to install and nothing to upload. The whole conversion takes a few seconds per photo.
Add your HEIC photos
Drag and drop up to 20 .heic or .heif files into the box above, click to browse, or paste them straight from your clipboard.
Pick JPG and a quality
JPG is selected by default — 90% quality is the sweet spot for photos. Switch to PNG if you need a lossless file.
Convert and download
Press Convert, then download each JPG on its own or grab everything at once in a single ZIP file.
Why convert HEIC to JPG?
HEIC is a clever format — it stores the same photo in about half the space of JPG. The trouble starts when the photo leaves your iPhone: Windows PCs, upload forms, email clients, printers and older apps often cannot open HEIC at all. A JPG copy opens everywhere, which makes it the safe format for sharing, uploading and printing.
🔒 Private by design
Most online converters upload your photos to their servers. JPGDrop converts in your browser, so personal photos never leave your device.
⚡ Fast batch conversion
Convert a whole camera roll at once — up to 20 files per batch — then download everything together as one ZIP.
🎚️ Quality under your control
A quality slider lets you balance file size against sharpness. Keep 90% or higher for prints, go lower for quick uploads.
🆓 Free, with no catches
No sign-up, no daily limits, no watermarks, no credits. The tool runs on your device, so it costs us nothing to let you use it freely.
📱 Works on every device
Use it on the same iPhone that took the photo, a Windows PC, a Mac, or an Android phone — any modern browser will do.
🧹 Metadata stays behind
Converted files do not carry over EXIF data such as GPS location — one less thing to worry about before sharing a photo publicly.

Limitations
- Only the main image inside a HEIC file is converted — Live Photo motion and Portrait depth data cannot be represented in JPG or PNG.
- Decoding HEIC is processor-heavy, so very large photos can take a few seconds each, and older phones are slower.
- EXIF metadata (including location and camera details) is not preserved in the converted file.
- A browser tab has limited memory — if a batch of huge photos struggles, split it into smaller batches.
Troubleshooting
- A file failed to convert. It may be a corrupted HEIC or a variant your browser cannot decode. Try a smaller batch, or open the photo on your iPhone and re-export it.
- Nothing happens when I add files. Make sure JavaScript is enabled and the files really end in .heic or .heif.
- The tab feels slow. HEIC decoding uses your device's processor. Close other heavy tabs and convert in smaller batches.
- Colors look slightly different. Wide-gamut (Display P3) photos are mapped to sRGB in JPG, which can soften very vivid colors slightly.
