HEIC to JPG converter

Convert HEIC to JPG without uploading the photo.

Open an iPhone or camera HEIC file, choose the JPEG quality and background colour, then save a broadly compatible JPG. The source is decoded and converted on this device.

Format decision

What changes when HEIC becomes JPG?

HEIC is an efficient container used by many phones, while JPEG is easier to open in older apps, upload forms, and publishing workflows. Converting changes the encoding; it does not add detail that was absent from the photo.

Original pixel dimensionsThe converter keeps the decoded width and height. Use the separate resizer if the destination also requires a smaller frame.
Adjustable JPEG qualityStart near the default and inspect the result. A lower setting can reduce file size, but repeated lossy conversion can soften fine detail.
A deliberate backgroundJPEG cannot store transparent pixels. The selected matte colour is placed behind any transparent area that the decoded source provides.
Fresh image exportThe canvas export does not copy the source EXIF or XMP block into the new JPG. Keep the original file if camera or capture metadata matters.

Keep in mind: HEIC files can contain image sequences, depth information, or variants that a browser decoder cannot reproduce. FormatTailor exports one decoded image; unsupported files fail locally instead of being uploaded elsewhere.

Three local steps

Convert, inspect, then keep.

The page constrains the source format and starts with the intended output, while leaving the quality decision visible.

STEP / 01

Choose one HEIC file

Select a .heic or .heif photo up to 40 MB. The page rejects other source formats so the result matches this workflow.

STEP / 02

Set quality and matte

Choose the JPEG quality and the colour used if the decoded image contains transparent pixels.

STEP / 03

Inspect and download

Compare the preview, dimensions, and output size before saving the generated .jpg file.

Common questions

HEIC or HEIF to JPG, clearly explained.

Does this work with iPhone HEIC photos?

It works with HEIC or HEIF files the browser or the included local decoder can read. HEIC variants differ, so a damaged, unusually large, or unsupported file may fail.

Will the JPG look exactly like the HEIC?

The decoded composition should remain recognizable, but JPEG is a lossy format and HEIC-specific data such as depth maps or image sequences is not carried into a single JPG.

Is my HEIC photo uploaded?

No file-processing upload is used. The selected file is decoded and converted by code running in the current browser tab.
