Frequently Asked Questions
What is HEIC format and why do I need to convert it?
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is an image format used by default on Apple devices since iOS 11. It offers better compression than JPEG but is not supported by most browsers, image editors, and Windows/Android devices. Converting to JPG ensures universal compatibility.
How do I convert HEIC to JPG?
Drag your HEIC files into the converter, select JPG format, set quality (85 recommended for quality preservation), and click Convert. The tool processes everything in your browser via WebAssembly — no server upload needed. Download files individually or as a ZIP.
Does the HEIC conversion happen on a server?
No. All conversion happens locally in your browser using WebAssembly (WASM) technology. Your photos never leave your device — zero upload, zero server storage, full privacy.
