Frequently asked questions
The essentials in brief
Why does my iPhone save photos as HEIC?
Since iOS 11 the iPhone camera shoots HEIC by default because it takes less space at similar quality. Many sites and apps still don't support it, which is why JPG is the safe choice for sharing.
How do I make my iPhone take photos in JPG?
Go to Settings, then Camera, then Formats, and pick Most Compatible. New photos will be JPG, and older HEIC shots can be converted here.
How do I open HEIC files on Windows?
Windows often asks you to install a HEIF extension from the Microsoft Store. Converting the photo to JPG here is quicker, and the result opens without extra software.
Will the date and location stay in the JPG?
No. The photo is re-encoded, so EXIF metadata like the date, phone model and GPS is not copied. That is good for privacy, but rename the file if you want to keep the date.
Will my photo end up sideways after converting?
No, the EXIF orientation is applied while decoding, so portrait shots stay portrait.
Does converting HEIC to JPG reduce quality?
JPG is lossy, but at the default 92 % the difference is hard to see. For extra headroom, raise the slider to 95 % or save as lossless PNG.
Why is the JPG bigger than the original HEIC?
HEIC packs images more tightly, so the same photo usually weighs more as a JPG. Lower the quality slider or run it through the image compressor if size matters.
Can I convert HEIC to JPG right on my iPhone?
Yes. Open this page in Safari, pick the photo from your library and tap "Download". The JPG lands in your browser downloads.
Can I convert my whole camera roll at once?
No, the converter takes one file at a time. After downloading, tap "One more file" and open the next photo.
Is my iPhone photo sent to a server?
No. HEIC is decoded in your browser by libheif, and the photo never leaves your device.
