Why does my iPhone take photos in HEIC format?

Apple uses HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) by default on iOS devices because it compresses images to roughly half the file size of JPEG while maintaining quality. However, many Windows PCs, websites, and older apps cannot open HEIC files.

Are my private photos uploaded to your server?

No! The entire conversion process runs locally inside your web browser. Your photos never leave your device.

Is there any quality loss when converting HEIC to JPG?

Our converter uses high-precision decoding at 92% quality by default, producing virtually identical visual fidelity to the original photo.
