From iOS 11 onwards, iPhones save images in HEIC file type by standard. HEIC — High Efficiency Image Container — is technically impressive: it produces pictures with roughly half the storage of similar JPEGs maintaining great image quality.

However there is a major catch. HEIC is an Apple-centric file type which is not broadly compatible outside the Apple ecosystem. PC users, Android phones and many websites cannot open HEIC photos with no extra apps.

Converting HEIC to JPG is the critical process that makes iPhone images compatible everywhere. Common scenarios where this becomes a problem involve sharing photos to Windows users, posting pictures to online platforms that do not accept HEIC.

Apple Mac owners have a simple process. Simply open the HEIC file in Preview, select File, then Export and select JPEG as the file heic to jpg high quality type.

For Windows users, browser-based tools manage HEIC to JPG converting with no setup. Add the HEIC photo and download the finished JPG.
