Here's how to convert HEIC files to JPEG on the Web

If you take live photos or use dual cameras on your iPhone and iPad, your Apple device saves the files in HEIC (High-efficiency image container) file format.

It is an updated variant of the HEIF (high-efficiency image format) format classically used by Apple on its mobile devices.

Apple uses the HEIC format to save pictures in higher quality than JPEG while consuming a lot less space with its advanced compressive technology.

The file format uses high-efficiency video coding (HEVC) to compress these files and eventually store them on the devices, thus taking less space (nearly half) than others such as JPEG.

Now there are times when you need to convert the HEIC images into JPEG as the latter is universally compatible with different operating systems.

You can convert any HEIC file to JPEG through a few simple steps, and that’s exactly what we aim to show you in this article.
