Up to 50 HEIC or HEIF photos, 80 MB each. The first photo takes a moment while the converter loads.

Processed on your device. Your images are never uploaded.

    How it works

    1. Your browser loads a HEIC decoder the first time you add a photo. It runs on your device, not on a server.
    2. Each photo is decoded, turned the right way up, and saved as a lossless PNG.
    3. Download photos one by one, or all together as a ZIP.

    Supported formats

    Opens
    HEIC and HEIF photos from iPhone and iPad
    Saves
    PNG. Download each photo, or all of them as a ZIP.
    Limits
    Up to 50 files, 80 MB each. Very large photos are scaled down to fit what your device can handle.
    • Safari opens HEIC itself. Other browsers load a HEIC decoder (libheif, about 500 KB) the first time.
    • PNG is lossless, so files are several times larger than the HEIC.
    • Metadata such as camera details and location is not copied to the new file.

    Your image stays on your device

    This tool runs entirely in your browser. The image is never uploaded, so there is nothing for us to store, see or delete.

    To check, open your browser’s developer tools, switch to the Network tab and use the tool: you will not see your image being sent anywhere.

    Questions

    Are my images uploaded anywhere?

    No. The image is read and processed by your own browser. Nothing is sent to our servers, so there is no copy of your image anywhere but your own device.

    JPG or PNG — which should I choose?

    Choose JPG for sharing and everyday use: files are small and look the same. Choose PNG only if you will edit the photo further and want to avoid any extra compression.

    Why can’t I open HEIC photos on Windows or Android?

    HEIC is Apple’s default photo format since iOS 11. It is efficient, but many Windows apps, Android phones and websites cannot open it without extra software.

    Can I stop my iPhone saving HEIC?

    Yes. Go to Settings → Camera → Formats and choose Most Compatible. New photos are then saved as JPG, but they take more space.
