Question 1

What is a HEIC file?

Accepted Answer

HEIC is the photo format iPhones use by default. It is smaller than JPG, but many Windows apps, websites and older devices can't open it.

Question 2

Are my images uploaded to a server?

Accepted Answer

No. The whole tool runs inside your browser, so your images never leave your device. The site's security policy also blocks the page from sending files anywhere.

Question 3

Will I lose quality converting HEIC to JPG?

Accepted Answer

JPG is a lossy format, but at the default quality the difference is not visible. You can raise the quality setting if you need a larger, more detailed file.

Question 4

Can I convert several HEIC photos at once?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Drop multiple files and download them one by one or all together as a ZIP.

Question 5

Is the location data from my iPhone kept?

Accepted Answer

No. Converting re-encodes the image, which removes EXIF metadata such as GPS location and camera details.
