Questions

How do I convert HEIC to JPG?

Drop your HEIC file on this page, or choose it. Anyfile converts it on your device in a moment and the JPG downloads straight away. To change it first, open it in the photo editor.

Is my HEIC file uploaded anywhere?

No. The file is read and converted by your own browser, and nothing is sent to a server. You can check: open your browser’s developer tools, go to Network, and convert a file. No upload appears.

Will I lose quality?

JPG is a compressed format, and Anyfile saves at high quality, so the difference is very hard to notice.

Is my location removed?

Not by converting: a JPG keeps camera details. Use Remove location on the drop card, or choose it when you download from the editor.

Can I convert several HEIC files at once?

Yes. Drop them together and you get one ZIP with every JPG inside.
