How to convert HEIC to JPG

  1. Choose or drop your HEIC photos. You can add several.
  2. Pick JPG or PNG, the quality and which photo details to keep.
  3. Select Convert, then download the photo or a ZIP of all of them.

What it needs

The photos are opened by your browser's own HEIC support, which Safari on iPhone, iPad and Mac has. Many other browsers, including Chrome and Firefox on Windows and Android, can't open HEIC yet; the page tells you if yours can't and what to do instead.

Location removed by default

iPhone photos usually record where they were taken. The location is removed from the JPG unless you choose to keep it; camera and date stay. You can also remove all photo details.

Quality

JPG is saved at quality 90 by default, which looks the same as the original. Move the slider down for smaller files, or choose PNG for no further loss.

Questions about HEIC to JPG

Are my photos uploaded when I convert HEIC to JPG?

No. Your browser opens the photos, and Scissor Image's engine, running inside the tab, saves them as JPG or PNG on your device. The site has no endpoint for your images, and its Content Security Policy lets the page contact only this site and Google's sign-in and Drive services, which it uses only when you choose Open from Drive or Save to Drive.

Why can't my browser open HEIC?

HEIC uses a video codec that browsers must license separately. Safari can open HEIC because Apple's systems include it; many other browsers don't. Open the page in Safari, or set your iPhone to save JPG photos.

How do I stop my iPhone taking HEIC photos?

Open Settings › Camera › Formats and choose Most Compatible. New photos are then saved as JPG.

Can I convert several photos at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like; you get one file back, or a ZIP when there are several.

Is it free? Do I need an account?

It is free, with no account, no daily limit and no watermark.
