Are my photos uploaded to an external server?

No, never. This tool uses WebAssembly (WASM) and browser rendering engines to perform all decoding and conversions entirely on your device (PC or smartphone). Your photo data is never transmitted to any external server.

Why can't my Windows PC open iPhone photos?

iPhone photos use the HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) format by default. Windows often lacks the necessary codecs out of the box. Converting them to standard JPG ensures they open effortlessly in any application.

How many photos can I convert at once?

To ensure browser stability and avoid memory crashes, batch limits are set to 20 photos and 100MB per batch. Files are processed sequentially one by one to keep memory consumption low.

Will image quality degrade after conversion?

JPG and WebP formats compress according to your chosen quality setting (default 85%), maintaining excellent visual clarity while minimizing file size. If you select PNG, compression is lossless with zero quality loss.

What happens to GPS location metadata?

To safeguard your privacy, GPS location data and XMP metadata are always automatically and completely stripped from converted photos. You can safely share pictures taken at home or work on the web.

Can I keep the capture date and camera settings?

Yes. By enabling 'Keep shooting metadata (date & camera info)', original timestamp, camera make, model, and exposure settings are retained in the JPEG APP1 segment while GPS coordinates remain purged.

Will portrait photos end up rotated sideways?

No. The converter automatically inspects both HEIC irot properties and EXIF orientation tags to ensure every output image is rendered in its correct upright orientation.

Can Live Photos be converted?

The primary still photograph of a Live Photo is converted into a high-quality JPG. However, the accompanying short video clip track is excluded from conversion.

How are HDR and 10-bit photos handled?

HDR and 10-bit photos taken with newer iPhones convert smoothly, but are tone-mapped to standard 8-bit SDR output. Extended HDR peak brightness and depth maps are not retained.

Is there any fee or account registration required?

No. The tool is 100% free with no registration, subscription, or software installation needed. Open the page and convert your photos immediately.

About HEIC to JPG Bulk Converter

HEIC to JPG Bulk Converter is a free web application that converts high-efficiency image files (HEIC/HEIF) taken with iPhones and iPads directly in your browser into universally compatible JPG, PNG, or WebP formats. Compatible across Windows PCs, Android devices, and web platforms, it requires no software installation or user registration.

Unlike conventional online converters that upload your photos to cloud servers, this tool leverages WebAssembly (WASM) and browser-native rendering engines to perform all decoding and conversion locally on your device. Your sensitive photos and private documents never leave your computer or phone, providing maximum privacy and data security.

Furthermore, GPS location coordinates are automatically stripped from every image to safeguard your personal privacy. The tool also automatically interprets HEIC rotation metadata (EXIF Orientation and irot properties) to ensure your pictures are always right-side up. Drag and drop multiple files to convert an entire batch in seconds.

Glossary of HEIC & Image Terms

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container): Apple's default image container format introduced in iOS 11. Powered by HEVC (H.265) compression, it halves file sizes compared to standard JPEG while preserving high visual fidelity. However, older Windows computers and non-Apple platforms often lack native support.
HEIF (High Efficiency Image File Format): An international standard image container developed by MPEG (ISO/IEC 23008-12). HEIC is Apple's specialized implementation of HEIF. It can store single pictures, bursts, audio, Live Photo video tracks, and depth maps in one file.
JPEG / JPG: The world's most widely adopted lossy image format. Supported out-of-the-box by nearly every computer, smartphone, web browser, and office suite. It serves as the standard format when submitting photos to portals that do not accept HEIC.
WebP: A modern image format created by Google for faster web browsing. It delivers 25–34% smaller file sizes than comparable JPEGs and is supported across modern browsers, making it an excellent choice for websites and blogs.
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format): Metadata embedded into photos by digital cameras and smartphones. It stores capture date and time, camera model, lens specifications, exposure time, aperture (F-number), and ISO sensitivity.
GPS Metadata (Location Data): Geographic coordinates (latitude, longitude, altitude) recorded by smartphone cameras. To eliminate privacy risks when posting to the web or social media, our converter strips all GPS data by default.
WebAssembly (WASM): A high-performance binary code format that executes inside modern web browsers at near-native speed. It allows powerful C/C++ libraries like libheif to run directly in your browser without plugins or backend servers.
Web Worker: A background JavaScript execution mechanism that runs tasks on a separate thread from the UI. By running image conversions in a Web Worker, the page remains smooth and responsive even during large batch jobs.
Lossless vs Lossy Compression: Lossless formats (like PNG) reconstruct original pixels without quality loss. Lossy formats (like JPEG and WebP) intelligently discard imperceptible color details to achieve much smaller file sizes.
Loss of Fidelity (Degradation vs Failure): A condition where conversion succeeds, but specialized source attributes—such as 10-bit HDR wide color gamut, portrait depth maps, or Live Photo video clips—cannot be represented in standard 8-bit SDR output.
