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. Apple uses HEIC as the default photo format on iPhones and iPads since iOS 11.
Why should I convert JPEG to HEIC?
HEIC files are typically 40-50% smaller than equivalent JPEG files. Converting to HEIC is a smart way to save storage space on your mobile phone without deleting memories. It also supports 16-bit colour and transparency that older JPEG formats cannot handle.
Can all devices open HEIC files?
Apple devices (iOS 11+, macOS High Sierra+) natively support HEIC. Windows 10/11 users can open HEIC by installing the free HEIF extension from the Microsoft Store. Some Android devices and apps now support it too. For sharing on older Windows laptops, keeping JPEG copies is recommended.
Is there quality loss when converting?
The conversion process re-encodes the image, which may cause minimal quality changes. Using higher quality settings (80-95%) preserves the visual clarity while still achieving smaller file sizes compared to the original JPEG.
Are my files safe?
Yes, absolutely. All conversion happens in your browser using JavaScript. Your personal images are never uploaded to any external server. The data is cleared from memory as soon as you close the tab.
