How to Convert HEIC to JPG (Open iPhone Photos on Any Device)

iPhone photos are in HEIC format, which Windows, Android, and most websites can't open. Here's how to fix that in 5 seconds. Upload your file to MegaConvert.io and select JPG — done in seconds, free, no signup.

The Problem

Since iOS 11, iPhones save photos as HEIC — a format that's 50% smaller than JPG but incompatible with most of the non-Apple world. You try to email a photo to someone on Windows, and they can't open it.

Why Convert HEIC to JPG?

• Windows can't open HEIC without installing extensions from the Microsoft Store.
• Android devices don't support HEIC natively.
• Most websites reject HEIC uploads — they want JPG or PNG.
• Print shops and online print services require JPG.
• Social media platforms may not accept HEIC directly.

How to Convert Online

1. Go to megaconvert.io/heic-to-jpg.
2. Drag and drop your .heic file.
3. Download your .jpg file.

No account needed. No watermarks. Files auto-delete after 1 hour for privacy.
