From iOS 11 onwards, iPhones store 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 high photo 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 additional software.
Transforming HEIC to JPG is the necessary step making iPhone pictures compatible everywhere. Common scenarios needing conversion are sending iPhone photos to non-Apple users, adding click here images to social media without support for HEIC.
Mac users enjoy the simplest method. Just open the HEIC image in Preview, navigate to File, then Export and choose JPEG as the format.
On Windows, online conversion tools manage HEIC to JPG conversion with no software installation. Add the HEIC file and download the finished JPG.
