🔒 Your photos stay on your device. Nothing is uploaded.

🔒

Never uploaded

Most online converters upload your photos to their server. Here the conversion runs on your own device, so private photos stay private.

📚

Many at once

Add a whole folder of HEIC photos and download the JPGs one by one or together in a ZIP file.

🆓

Free, no limits

No sign-up, no watermark, no daily limit. Works on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone in any modern browser.

How to convert HEIC to JPG

Three steps, no sign-up needed.

1

Add your HEIC photos

Drag them into the box or click to choose. You can select many files at once.

2

Pick JPG or PNG

JPG keeps files small and opens everywhere. PNG is lossless but much bigger.

3

Download

Save each photo, or download all of them in one ZIP file.

Why won’t my iPhone photos open on Windows?

Since iOS 11, iPhones save photos as HEIC by default. A HEIC file can be up to half the size of a JPG of similar quality, which saves space on the phone — but many Windows PCs, older apps and websites can’t open it.

You have three ways out:

  • Convert the photos to JPG with the converter above. Nothing to install.
  • Install Microsoft’s HEIF Image Extensions from the Microsoft Store. Some PCs also need the HEVC Video Extensions, which Microsoft sells for a small fee.
  • Make your iPhone take JPG photos from now on: Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible. This only changes new photos.

Frequently asked questions

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. The converter runs entirely in your browser using libheif, an open-source HEIC decoder. Your photos are read and converted on your device and are never sent to ShareBeam or anyone else.

Is the HEIC to JPG converter free?

Yes, completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on the number of photos.

Will I lose quality?

At the default 92% quality, the JPG looks the same as the original to the eye. If you need an exact copy, choose PNG; the files will be much larger.

Does the JPG keep the date and location?

No. The converted file doesn’t include the photo’s EXIF data, such as the date taken, GPS location and camera model. That is good for privacy when you share photos, but keep the originals if you need that information.

What about Live Photos?

A Live Photo is a HEIC still plus a short video (.MOV). The converter turns the still photo into a JPG; the video is a separate file and isn’t changed.

How many photos can I convert at once?

As many as your device can handle. Photos are converted one after another, so a large batch just takes a little longer. On phones with little memory, convert a few dozen at a time.

Can I convert HEIC to PNG?

Yes. Choose PNG in the format option before adding your photos.
