What is HEIC and Why Can't Windows Open It?

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is Apple's default photo format on iPhone (iOS 11+). It offers 2× better compression than JPG at the same quality. However, Windows PCs and Android devices don't natively support HEIC - you need to convert HEIC to JPG to open, share, or upload your iPhone photos.

When Do You Need to Convert HEIC to JPG?

  • Uploading iPhone photos to a website or form that rejects HEIC
  • Sending photos to someone with a Windows PC or Android phone
  • Using photos in PowerPoint, Word, or other Office apps
  • Sharing to WhatsApp, Instagram, or Facebook from a PC
  • Government exam portals that only accept JPG

How to Convert HEIC to JPG on iPhone Without This Tool

On iPhone: go to Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible. This sets the camera to save new photos as JPG by default. For existing HEIC photos, use our converter above.
