From iOS 11 onwards, iPhones save pictures in HEIC file format by standard. HEIC — High Efficiency Image Format — is highly efficient: it creates photos with about half the file size of equivalent JPEGs while maintaining great image quality.
However there is a significant catch. HEIC is an Apple-centric file type which is not broadly compatible outside the Apple environment. Windows computers, Android devices and most web platforms cannot display HEIC images without additional software.
Changing HEIC to JPG is the critical step making iPhone images compatible everywhere. Typical situations where this becomes a more info problem involve transferring images to PC users, uploading photos to social media without support for HEIC.
Mac users have a simple conversion path. Just open the HEIC image in Preview, navigate to File, then Export and choose JPEG as the format.
Windows PC users, online conversion tools process HEIC to JPG conversion requiring no downloads. Select the HEIC image and download the resulting JPG.
