Why Convert HEIC to JPG?
Your iPhone saves photos in HEIC format by default. While HEIC produces excellent quality at small file sizes, most websites, email services, and Windows applications cannot open HEIC files. Converting to JPG gives you a photo that works everywhere — on any device, in any app, on any platform.
HEIC-to-JPG is the most common image conversion iPhone users need. Whether you are uploading photos to a website, attaching them to an email, or sharing with someone on Android or Windows, JPG is the universal standard that just works.
LeanImg converts your HEIC photos to JPG right in your browser. Your photos never leave your device — no upload, no cloud processing, no privacy risk. This is especially important for personal photos that you do not want on anyone else's server.
The conversion is instant and free with no sign-up required. After converting, you can compress your JPG to make it even smaller for sharing. Need a modern web format instead? Try converting to WebP.

Why does my iPhone save photos as HEIC?
Apple uses HEIC because it produces smaller files than JPG while maintaining the same quality. This saves storage space on your iPhone. However, HEIC is not widely supported outside the Apple ecosystem, which is why conversion to JPG is often needed.
Will I lose photo quality converting HEIC to JPG?
There is a minimal quality difference at the default setting of 85. The JPG will look virtually identical to the original HEIC photo. You can adjust the quality slider in advanced settings if you want higher quality or smaller files.
