HEIC converter for Windows
Turn iPhone HEIC photos into JPGs that open anywhere
For when iPhone photos won't open on Windows, or a form only accepts JPG. Drag your images in, choose what they're for, and convert. It can also resize and shrink files under 2 MB, and everything runs on your PC.
Problems
Where HEIC gets in the way
HEIC, the format iPhones use for photos, keeps files small without losing much quality. But Windows and many websites still have trouble with it.
-
HEIC photos won't open on Windows
Photos copied from your iPhone arrive as .heic files, and some apps can't display them. People you send them to may not be able to open them either.
-
A form wants JPG under a size limit
Application forms and document portals often ask for something like "JPG, 2 MB max." You have to get both the format and the size right before the upload goes through.
-
Converting one photo at a time
Free web converters make you upload photos one by one, which takes time. You may also prefer not to send personal photos to someone else's server.
Features
Add images, choose a purpose, convert
The technical settings are built into presets. Add your images, pick what they are for, and convert.

Feature 01
Drag and drop to convert to JPG
Drop HEIC, HEIF, WebP, or AVIF images into the window and they appear in a list. Check them in the preview, choose an output folder, and convert.

-
Feature 02
Presets based on what you need
Choose "Convert to JPG (as is)", "For web & social media", or "For document upload (2 MB max)". The document preset adjusts quality automatically so each file fits under 2 MB. If you want to set the numbers yourself, Custom lets you choose long-edge size, quality, and a size limit.
- Pick a purpose, not a setting
- Document preset fits files under 2 MB
- Custom long-edge size, quality, and size limit
-
Feature 03
Nothing is uploaded
Conversion happens entirely on your PC, and your images are never sent anywhere. EXIF metadata such as the date taken and GPS location is removed by default. You can choose to keep it.
- Images never leave your PC
- Location and other EXIF data removed by default
- Option to keep metadata

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Which image formats are supported?
The app opens HEIC, HEIF, WebP, AVIF, JPG, and PNG images and saves them as JPG. Custom settings also let you save as PNG.

How much can I do for free?
You can convert one selected image at a time for free, with no quality limits or watermarks. Converting multiple images at once requires the Pro in-app purchase.
