how to convert heic to jpg on windows

  1. drop one or many heic or heif photos on the box above.
  2. wait for the converter to load the first time, then for each photo to convert.
  3. download each jpg or press download all for a zip.

windows 10 and 11 can open heic only when the heif image extension and the hevc codec from the microsoft store are installed, and the hevc part costs money on some versions. converting to jpg avoids all of it, and the files then open in photos, paint, word and every other program.

copy the photos from your phone to a folder, drag them onto the box above and take the zip when finished. nothing is uploaded, so it is also fine for private photos. quality 92 keeps almost all the detail of the original.

frequently asked questions

why can't windows open my iphone photos?

windows does not include the heic decoder by default, so it shows a blank thumbnail or asks for an extension.

do i need to install anything?

no. the decoder runs in the browser page. it is downloaded once and kept for the session.

can i convert a whole folder at once?

yes. in the file picker, press ctrl and a to select all the photos, or drag the entire selection onto the box.
