Batch HEIC Converter

HEIC is the photo format iPhones and iPads have used by default since iOS 11 (2017). It stores photos in roughly half the space of JPG at similar quality, but many Windows apps, websites and online forms still cannot open it — which is why people convert HEIC to JPG.

No. This converter runs entirely in your browser using your own device's processing power. Your photos never leave your device, there is no upload queue, and nothing is stored anywhere.

JPG is a lossy format, so a small amount of quality is traded for compatibility. At the default 90% quality setting the difference is not visible in normal use. If you need a pixel-perfect copy, choose PNG instead — it is lossless, though the files are larger.

Windows does not include a HEIC decoder by default; the Photos app asks for a paid HEVC extension from the Microsoft Store. Converting the photos to JPG here is free and works on any Windows PC, no extension or sign-up needed.

Yes. Add as many files as you like — drag a whole folder selection in at once — and they are converted one after another on your device. Use the Download all (ZIP) button to save them in a single file.

Yes. Turn on the exact-size option and pick a target such as 100 KB, 200 KB or 500 KB (or type your own). The converter adjusts quality — and, only if needed, dimensions — so each JPG lands at or just under your target, which is what most application and visa forms require.

On the iPhone, go to Settings, then Camera, then Formats, and choose Most Compatible. New photos will be saved as JPG. Photos already on the phone stay HEIC — convert those here.

Yes. PNG stores every pixel exactly, so the PNG you download is a pixel-perfect copy of the decoded HEIC photo. No quality slider applies to PNG — output is always full quality.

HEIC compresses photos very efficiently, and PNG trades that efficiency for exactness. A 2 MB HEIC photo commonly becomes an 8–15 MB PNG. If the size is a problem, convert to JPG instead — it stays close to the original size.

Yes — set the exact-size option and the converter will reduce the image dimensions only as much as needed to fit the target. Because PNG has no quality setting, resizing is the only way to shrink it, so very small targets mean visibly smaller images.

If the source HEIC carries transparency, the PNG output preserves it. Ordinary iPhone camera photos have no transparency, so their PNGs are fully opaque — the same picture, just in PNG format.

Yes. Add a whole batch at once and download everything together as a ZIP. Keep in mind that large PNG batches produce a large ZIP, because every file is lossless.

Your HEIC photos are decoded and converted to JPG entirely in your browser, then combined into a single PDF on your device — one photo per page, each page matched to the photo's dimensions and orientation. Nothing is uploaded to a server.

Yes — that is exactly what this page is for. Add every photo you want included, wait for them to convert, then press Download all as PDF. The PDF contains the photos in list order.

Forms that ask for a PDF document accept this output: it is a standard PDF with an embedded JPG image on each page, readable by every PDF viewer and upload checker.

Remove the photos and add them again in the order you want, or remove a single photo with its ✕ button and re-add it last. The PDF follows the order shown in the list.

Each page holds the JPG produced at your quality setting (90% by default), which is visually identical to the original for documents and sharing. Raise the quality slider to 100% before converting if you want the maximum.

No. That paid extension only lets some Windows apps view HEIC files; it doesn't convert them, and plenty of software still can't use HEIC afterwards. This converter turns the files into real JPGs in your browser, for free, with nothing to install.

Yes — it works in any modern browser on both, because the conversion runs in the browser rather than in Windows itself. It also works on older machines where the Photos app won't open HEIC at all.

File Explorer can only show thumbnails for formats Windows can decode. Without HEIC support you get a generic icon and no preview. After converting to JPG, thumbnails and previews work normally.

Yes. This page converts on your own PC inside the browser — the files are never sent to a server, which matters for personal photos you would rather not hand to an upload-based converter.

Yes. JPG is accepted by every Office app, government and university form, and website upload field — that compatibility is the main reason to convert.

Macs open HEIC natively, but the people and systems you send photos to often can't — Windows PCs, older software, and most web forms. Converting to JPG before sharing avoids the "I can't open this file" reply.

Use this page: it runs entirely in your browser, so there is nothing to download or install. For a single photo, the built-in Preview app's Export option also works.

Yes. Select all the HEIC files in Finder, drag them into the converter together, and download the results as one ZIP — much faster than exporting file by file in Preview.

AirDrop between Apple devices keeps photos as HEIC. AirDropping to a Mac gives you HEIC files, which is why converting on the Mac afterwards is a common step before sending photos on to Windows users.

On the iPhone, open Settings → Camera → Formats and choose Most Compatible — new photos are saved as JPG everywhere. Existing HEIC photos still need converting, which is what this page does.

There is no fixed count limit — the practical limit is your device's memory and patience. Batches of a few dozen photos are comfortable on any modern phone or computer; for hundreds of photos, work in groups of 30–50.

Yes. Drop or browse for more files at any time — they are added to the list and converted automatically when the current queue finishes, with the same settings.

Yes. One format, quality and optional exact-size target applies to the whole batch, and changing a setting re-converts the finished files with the new setting so the batch stays consistent.

Use Download all (ZIP) to get every converted file in a single archive, or download files individually from their rows. File names are preserved, with numbers added where two originals share a name.

Yes. Batch files are processed one by one in your browser on your device, exactly like single files — nothing is uploaded, queued on a server, or stored anywhere.

It will be at or just under 200 KB — the converter keeps the highest quality version that still fits the limit, so most photos land close to 200 KB rather than far below it. Forms require "200 KB or less", which is what you get.

For form and document use, no — the photo stays clearly recognisable, which is what reviewers need. A 200 KB version is not the copy to print or archive; keep your original HEIC for that.

Yes. Pick the 100 KB or 50 KB pill in the exact-size setting (or type any custom target). Smaller targets mean lower quality and, at 50 KB, usually smaller dimensions too — the converter notes when it resizes.

Yes. The output is a standard JPG file whose size is at or under 200 KB, converted and sized entirely in your browser, ready to upload to the form.

Drop it in here too — JPG, PNG and WebP files are accepted and re-sized to the same target. Or use the dedicated Image Compressor to 200 KB for photos that don't need format conversion.
