How to convert a photo

  1. Choose one HEIC or HEIF photo, up to 25 MB and 40 megapixels.
  2. Keep JPG selected. Adjust Quality if you want to trade detail for a smaller file.
  3. Select Convert image, review the preview and download your JPG.

What is preserved—and what is not

Unpin converts the first still image. It is not a Live Photo or multi-image exporter. HDR appearance and original metadata may not be preserved. Keep the original for archival or editing work. JPG does not support transparency; transparent areas become white.

For a rejected photo upload

If a form accepts JPG but refuses your HEIC, conversion changes the format. If it then rejects the size, use the quality slider to reduce the JPG. The separate compression tool exports WebP, which that form may not accept. Check its allowed formats first.

Limits and local processing

The source must be at most 25 MB and 40 megapixels. The output is scaled down if its longest side exceeds 8,000 pixels. The HEIC decoder downloads when needed, then works in your browser. Your selected photo is not sent to a conversion server.

When a photo will not convert

Some HEIC variants may not decode. Try exporting a JPG from the app that created the photo. Renaming .heic to .jpg does not convert the image. If the image is too large, resize it before trying again.

How to make an HEIC photo work in a JPG-only upload form

Choose the original HEIC or HEIF file, select JPG, and convert it. Download the result and select that new JPG in the upload form. Changing the original filename from .heic to .jpg does not convert the photo.

If the form also has a file-size limit, lower JPG quality and convert again, then check the downloaded file's size. If it requires specific dimensions, use the image resizer on the converted photo. Check both the accepted format and the stated size limit before submitting.

Keep your original HEIC: this conversion exports a still image, not the motion portion of a Live Photo, and may change HDR appearance or metadata.

Before you start

Can I convert twenty photos together?

Free tools process one file at a time. Pro adds batches of up to 20 files.

Does JPG conversion preserve all image quality?

No. JPG is a lossy format. Higher quality generally retains more detail and creates a larger file. HDR rendering and metadata can also change.

Can I choose PNG instead?

Yes. Choose PNG in the output menu. It can make a larger file; it does not recover information lost in the original.

Where your files are processed.

Images, video, and audio you select are processed in your browser. That includes batch conversions, background removal, audio noise reduction, and ZIP downloads. We do not upload those files to a conversion server.

Supported everyday tools process files on your device. Studio processes uploads securely on servers: AI Studio files are uploaded for processing by our AI providers, deleted from Unpin when a job finishes, and results are kept for 7 days.

Closing or refreshing this page clears the active files and results. Files you download remain wherever you save them. Your original files are unchanged.

Reel and TikTok downloads are different: the link and its video are processed on Unpin’s server and by our download provider, as explained in the Download tool. Transcription sends extracted audio to our transcription provider; video stays on your device.

We do not save conversion history. With your consent, we use the Meta Pixel to measure visits from our ads; it records page views only and never receives your files, file names, prompts or other content you enter. The hosting service receives ordinary website requests, and Google Fonts receives requests to load the fonts. Processing software is downloaded from this site.
