Starting with iOS 11, iPhones save images in HEIC file type by standard. HEIC — High Efficiency Image Container — is highly efficient: it generates photos with roughly 50 percent less storage of comparable JPEGs while keeping high photo quality.
Yet there is a major problem. HEIC is an Apple-proprietary format that is not universally accepted away from the Apple environment. Windows computers, Android devices and most online services cannot display HEIC images without additional software.
Transforming HEIC to JPG is the necessary step that makes iPhone images compatible everywhere. Common scenarios where this becomes a problem involve sharing photos to Windows users, posting pictures to online platforms that do not accept 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 format.
On Windows, online conversion tools process HEIC to JPG conversion requiring no downloads. Select the HEIC click here image and get the resulting JPG.
