Since iOS 11, iPhones store photos in HEIC file format by default. HEIC — High Efficiency Image Container — is a great format: it produces photos with roughly half the file size of comparable JPEGs maintaining great image quality.
However there is a major problem. HEIC is an Apple-centric file type that is not universally accepted beyond the Apple devices. PC users, non-Apple phones and most web platforms cannot display HEIC read more photos without special programs.
Transforming HEIC to JPG is the necessary step making iPhone pictures 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. Simply open the HEIC file in Preview, navigate to File, then Export and choose JPEG as the file type.
On Windows, online conversion tools process HEIC to JPG conversion requiring no software installation. Select the HEIC file and get the resulting JPG.
