Frequently asked questions
- Why do iPhones produce HEIC files at all?
- HEIC compresses roughly twice as well as JPG at the same quality, so Apple made it the default camera format in 2017. Its weakness is compatibility, which is what converting to JPG fixes.
- Is quality lost in the conversion?
- Marginally: the photo is re-encoded as JPG at quality 92, which is visually indistinguishable. The file usually gets somewhat larger, since JPG compresses less efficiently than HEIC.
- Can I avoid HEIC on my iPhone in the first place?
- Yes: Settings, Camera, Formats, then choose 'Most Compatible' to shoot JPG directly, at the cost of larger files on your phone.
- Are my photos uploaded anywhere?
- No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser; your photos never leave your device.
