From iOS 11 onwards, iPhones store images in HEIC format by default. HEIC — High Efficiency Image Container — is technically impressive: it produces images with roughly half the file size of equivalent JPEGs maintaining high photo quality.
Yet there is a major problem. HEIC is an Apple-proprietary format not universally accepted beyond the Apple environment. Windows PCs, non-Apple phones and most online services do not support HEIC files lacking here extra apps.
Changing HEIC to JPG is the essential action which makes iPhone photos usable on all devices. Typical situations that require conversion include transferring images 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 output format.
For Windows users, browser-based tools handle HEIC to JPG converting without any setup. Upload the HEIC photo and download the finished JPG.
