    Why your iPhone saves HEIC

    Your iPhone saves photos as HEIC. The files are small and sharp, but plenty of places won't take them: Windows asks for an add-on before it opens one, and many upload forms turn them away.

    Drop your photos here and each one comes back as a JPG with the same name, so IMG_1234.HEIC becomes IMG_1234.jpg. Your browser does the converting, on this device.

    Questions

    Are my photos uploaded?

    No. Your browser converts them on this device. They aren't sent to Luala or anywhere else.

    Do I lose quality?

    Each JPG keeps the photo's full size and is saved at high quality. Expect it to be bigger than the HEIC: JPG needs more space for the same picture.

    What happens to the location and camera details?

    They're left out. A JPG from here carries the picture only, not where or when it was taken or on which phone.

    How many photos can I convert at once?

    As many as you choose. They're converted one after another, and once two are done you can download them all as one zip.

    Why was a file skipped?

    It wasn't a HEIC photo. This tool reads HEIC and HEIF files only; a JPG or PNG already opens everywhere.

    How do I stop my iPhone saving HEIC?

    In Settings, open Camera, then Formats, and choose Most Compatible. New photos are saved as JPG from then on; the ones you already have stay HEIC.
