From iOS 11 onwards, iPhones save images in HEIC file type by standard. HEIC — High Efficiency Image Container — is technically impressive: it produces pictures with roughly half the storage of similar JPEGs maintaining high photo quality.
However there is a major catch. HEIC is an Apple-centric file type not universally accepted beyond the Apple ecosystem. Windows PCs, non-Apple phones and most online services do not support HEIC files lacking special programs.
Changing HEIC to JPG is the essential action which makes 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 select JPEG as the file type.
On Windows, online conversion tools manage HEIC to JPG conversion with no software installation. Add the HEIC file and save the converted JPG.
