Starting with iOS 11, iPhones have saved pictures in HEIC file type by standard. HEIC — Apple's HEIC format — is highly efficient: it generates photos with about 50 percent less storage of equivalent JPEGs while maintaining excellent visual quality.
Yet there is a major catch. HEIC is an Apple-centric file type which is not widely supported away from the Apple environment. Windows PCs, non-Apple phones and most online services do not support HEIC files with no additional software.
Transforming HEIC to JPG is the necessary step making iPhone pictures universally shareable. Frequent cases that click here require conversion include sharing photos to Windows users, posting pictures to websites incompatible with HEIC.
People with Macs enjoy the simplest method. Just open the HEIC image in Preview, navigate to File, then Export and choose JPEG as the file type.
For Windows users, browser-based tools handle HEIC to JPG converting without any downloads. Select the HEIC file and get the converted JPG.
