Convert HEIC photos to JPG

File Converter turns HEIC photos into JPG files on your device. Use it when a website or app accepts JPEG but cannot open your original photo.

Open File Converter
  1. Add the photos

    Open File Converter and add one HEIC file or a batch. Try one photo first when working with a new source or a large export.

  2. Choose JPG

    Select JPG as the output format and review the available quality setting. Convert the files, then download the image or the batch ZIP. The original HEIC files are not changed.

  3. Open the result

    Check that the photo is upright and that its colors and fine detail look right. A JPG does not preserve every feature that a HEIC source can contain, and conversion does not necessarily make the file smaller.

If the JPG is still too large

Use Image Studio to reduce dimensions or compress the converted photo for the destination’s byte limit.

Resize during conversion

File Converter’s Maximum long edge setting limits the longer side of the photo while keeping its proportions. Original size avoids that resize. For example, a 4000 × 3000 landscape photo capped at 2048 pixels becomes approximately 2048 × 1536; a portrait is limited by its height instead. Use this control when compatibility and smaller dimensions are the only changes needed. Image Studio adds cropping and a target byte size when the destination is more specific.

JPG, JPEG or PNG?

JPG and JPEG name the same image format. Renaming a .heic file to .jpg does not convert its contents. Choose JPG for an ordinary photo when the recipient accepts it. Choose PNG when a later workflow needs that format, rather than assuming it will make the photo smaller. A JPEG export is a new still image; retain the source when you need features or metadata that the conversion may not preserve.

If one photo will not convert

  • Try that photo by itself before repeating the whole batch; this separates a source-file problem from memory pressure.
  • Use the original exported HEIC file rather than a renamed file or an incomplete cloud download.
  • If the tab becomes slow, reduce the batch size or the maximum long edge. Inspect a successful sample before committing to a large export.
