Understanding HEIC vs JPEG

Learn the differences between Apple's HEIC format and the universal JPEG standard, and why conversion is sometimes necessary.

What is HEIC?

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is Apple's modern image format based on HEVC video compression. Introduced in iOS 11, it produces smaller file sizes than JPEG at equivalent quality—up to 50% smaller. HEIC supports advanced features like transparency, 16-bit color depth, and multiple images in one file.

  • ✓ Default format for iPhone photos (iOS 11+)
  • ✓ Better compression than JPEG
  • ✓ Supports transparency and HDR
  • ✗ Limited compatibility outside Apple ecosystem

What is JPEG?

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is the universal image format established in 1992. Supported by virtually every device, operating system, and website. Uses lossy compression to reduce file sizes while maintaining acceptable quality for photographs. The industry standard for photo sharing and web publishing.

  • ✓ Universal compatibility everywhere
  • ✓ Supported by all devices and browsers
  • ✓ Works with all software and services
  • ✓ Established standard since 1992

When to Convert HEIC to JPEG

Convert HEIC to JPEG when sharing photos with non-Apple devices, uploading to websites with limited format support, or working in professional environments that require standard formats. Essential for compatibility with Windows PCs, Android phones, and older software.

  • • Sharing with Windows/Android users
  • • Uploading to social media platforms
  • • Email attachments for compatibility
  • • Professional print services

Quality & File Size Considerations

While HEIC offers better compression, converting to JPEG at quality 80-90% produces files comparable in quality to the original. For web use, JPEG at 70-80% quality strikes the best balance. For archival or print, use 90-100% quality. Our tool lets you choose the optimal quality for your needs.

  • • Quality 60-70%: Small files, web thumbnails
  • • Quality 80%: Standard web images
  • • Quality 90%: High quality, social media
  • • Quality 100%: Maximum quality, archival
