Since iOS 11, iPhones have saved photos in HEIC file format by default setting. HEIC — High Efficiency Image Format — is a great format: it creates photos with approximately half the file size of equivalent JPEGs while maintaining excellent visual quality.
Yet there is a important problem. HEIC is an Apple-proprietary format not universally accepted beyond the Apple environment. Windows PCs, non-Apple phones and most online services do not support HEIC files lacking special programs.
Changing HEIC to JPG is the essential action which makes iPhone photos usable on all devices. Typical situations that require conversion include transferring images to click here PC users, uploading photos to online platforms without support for HEIC.
Apple Mac owners have a simple conversion path. Just open the HEIC file in Preview, navigate to File, then Export and choose JPEG as the file type.
On Windows, online conversion tools manage HEIC to JPG converting with no setup. Add the HEIC photo and save the finished JPG.
