If you’ve transferred photos from an iPhone to a Windows computer, uploaded an image to a website or tried to share a photo with somebody, you may have come across an HEIC file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HEIC is an efficient image format used by Apple devices, but it isn’t always supported by every website, application or device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The easiest solution is often to convert HEIC to JPG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With RouteNote Convert, you can convert HEIC images to JPG online for free<\/a> without installing additional software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RouteNote Convert currently supports HEIC to JPG files up to 200MB and allows up to five images in an upload.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to convert HEIC to JPG<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Converting an HEIC image takes just a few steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Open the HEIC to JPG tool on RouteNote Convert.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Choose your HEIC image or drag the file into the converter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Upload the image.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Convert the file to JPG.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Download your new JPG image.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    That’s it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You now have a JPG version of your original HEIC image that can be opened and shared on a much wider range of devices and websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What is an HEIC file?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    HEIC stands for High Efficiency Image Container.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Apple started using HEIC as the default image format for many photos taken on iPhones and iPads because it can produce high-quality images while keeping file sizes relatively small.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This is useful when you have thousands of photos stored on your phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The problem is compatibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    JPG has been around for much longer and is supported by almost every operating system, browser, social network and image editing application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    That is why converting HEIC to JPG can be useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Why does my iPhone take HEIC photos?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Modern iPhones can save photographs using Apple’s High Efficiency format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This helps reduce the amount of storage photos consume on your device without dramatically reducing their visual quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    For most iPhone users this happens largely in the background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You may only notice that your photos are HEIC files when you move them somewhere else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    For example, you might encounter problems when:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
