Why convert HEIC files?
HEIC is the format iPhones and iPads have saved photos in by default since iOS 11. It stores images at about half the size of JPEG, which is great on your device.
The problem starts when you leave Apple's ecosystem. Windows, Android, older apps, and most websites often can't open a .heic file at all. Converting it turns your photo into a format that works everywhere.
Which format should you convert HEIC to?
Pick the target format based on where the image is going.
| Convert to | Best for | Why |
|---|---|---|
| HEIC to PNG | Screenshots, logos, graphics | Lossless quality and keeps transparency |
| HEIC to JPG | Sharing photos anywhere | Universally supported, small files |
| HEIC to PDF | Documents & printing | Combine many photos into one file |
| HEIC to WebP | Website & CMS images | Smallest size, modern, web-ready |
Choose PNG for quality and transparency
If you need a lossless copy or an image with a transparent background — screenshots, logos, or graphics — convert HEIC to PNG. PNG keeps every pixel and supports an alpha channel.
Choose JPG for maximum compatibility
For everyday photos you want to email, upload, or send, convert HEIC to JPG. It opens on every device and app and keeps files small.
Choose PDF to combine or print
To turn a set of photos into a single, printable document, convert HEIC to PDF. You can merge multiple images into one multi-page PDF and reorder the pages.
Choose WebP for the web
Building a website? Convert HEIC to WebP for the smallest, fastest images that every modern browser and CMS accepts.
Private by design
Every HEICHub tool runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your files are never uploaded to a server — the conversion happens on your own device.
That means your photos stay private, there are no file-size limits, and there is no upload wait. It is the fastest and most private way to convert HEIC online.
