Convert HEIC to JPG without uploading it

HEIC is the format iPhones and iPads use by default since iOS 11, about half the size of JPG. JPG is the universal photo format that every device, website and printer accepts. Drop your files and get JPG copies in seconds, decoded and encoded on your own device.

Runs on your device No watermark No sign-up No limits

Why convert HEIC to JPG? Because Windows apps, websites, printers and many forms refuse it, while it opens everywhere and keeps photos small. The conversion happens in your browser: the HEIC is decoded to pixels and those pixels are written out as JPG. The default quality of 92 percent is visually identical to the original for photos.

The HEIC decoder is about one megabyte and loads the first time a HEIC file appears. Afterwards conversions keep working even offline. Tip: to stop new photos being HEIC, set iPhone Settings, Camera, Formats to Most Compatible.

How to convert HEIC to JPG

Drop the HEIC files. As many as you like. They are read straight from your disk, so there is no upload wait.
JPG is preselected. Adjust the quality slider if you want an even smaller file.
Download. Grab each file, or all of them as a zip.

Why use myownpic for this

Nothing is uploaded

Photos are read from your disk and processed by your browser. There is no server, so ID scans, family pictures and work files never travel anywhere.

Faster than any upload

A 10 MB photo compresses in about a second. No queue, no upload bar, no download round trip, and it keeps working offline.

Whole batches, one zip

Drop a folder, not a file. Every tool works on many images at once and hands you a zip.

No watermark, no account

Free with no sign-up, no daily quota, no resolution cap and no logo stamped on your pictures.

Questions people ask

Are my iPhone photos uploaded?

No. The decoder runs inside your browser and all processing happens on your device.

Does it keep the photo quality?

The full-resolution HEIC is decoded and saved as a 92 percent quality JPG, which looks identical for photos.

Is there a limit on how many HEIC files I can convert?

No server quota exists because everything runs locally. Whole trips are fine; three files are converted at a time.

Why does my iPhone save HEIC?

Since iOS 11 iPhones default to HEIC because the files are about half the size of JPG at the same quality. Many Windows apps, printers and forms still do not accept it.
