Frequently Asked Questions

What is HEIC format?
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is a modern image format developed by MPEG. It offers significantly better compression than JPEG while maintaining similar quality. It is the default photo format on Apple devices running iOS 11 and later.
Why convert JPEG to HEIC?
HEIC files are typically 40-50% smaller than equivalent JPEG files. Converting to HEIC saves storage space on your device and iCloud. It also supports advanced features like 16-bit colour and transparency that standard JPEG cannot handle.
Can all devices open HEIC files?
Apple devices (iOS 11+, macOS High Sierra+) natively support HEIC. Windows 10 and 11 users can open HEIC files by installing the HEIF extensions from the Microsoft Store. Some newer Android devices also support the format. For sharing with older devices, keeping a JPEG copy is recommended.
Is there quality loss when converting?
The conversion process re-encodes the image, which may introduce minimal quality changes. Using higher quality settings (80-95%) preserves visual quality while still achieving smaller file sizes compared to the original JPEG.
Are my files safe?
Yes. All conversion happens directly in your browser using JavaScript. Your images are never uploaded to any server or sent over the internet. Data is cleared automatically when you close the page.
