HEIC photo

Open and edit HEIC files

You can open, view and edit HEIC files for free right here in your browser, without Photos and Preview on Mac and without uploading anything. Photos compressed with HEVC (H.265) inside the HEIF container, an MPEG standard. Apple made it the iPhone camera default with iOS 11 in 2017, and files are often about half the size of a JPEG.

Files are converted in your browser and never uploaded. By using Anyfile you agree to the Terms of Use.

Edit HEIC files

Adjust, filter, crop, rotate, straighten, mark up and resize, then save in the same format or convert. Opens in Chrome, Edge and Safari, which decode HEIC on most computers and phones; Firefox can’t yet. Browsers can’t write HEIC, so edits save as JPEG (camera info kept, location removable), PNG or WebP.
