Convert HEIC photos to JPG locally
The browser decodes each selected HEIC or HEIF photo and creates a JPG at 90% quality. JPG is widely supported but is lossy, and the new file may not retain metadata, depth information, Live Photo motion, auxiliary images or the source image's bit depth.
HEIC and HEIF decoding and JPG creation run in this browser tab. HandyGrid does not receive or store the selected photos.

Convert HEIC photos to JPG locally FAQ
Why convert HEIC to JPG?
JPG works in more websites, apps and older devices, while HEIC can store similar-looking photos more efficiently.
Will the JPG be identical to the HEIC photo?
No. JPG uses lossy compression and cannot preserve every HEIC feature. Check the result before deleting or archiving the original.
Can I convert several HEIC photos?
Yes. One file downloads as a JPG; multiple files download together in a ZIP archive.
