    What happens to your HEIC

    WEBP uses lossy compression. At the default quality the difference is very hard to see and the file is usually much smaller.

    The photo keeps its orientation, so it will not appear sideways.

    This conversion runs inside your browser, so the file is never uploaded. Files over 60 MB are sent to our server instead, and deleted within 60 minutes.

    What is an HEIC file?

    The default photo format on iPhones since iOS 11. It stores photos at about half the size of JPG with the same quality, but many Windows PCs, websites and older Android phones cannot open it.

    iPhone, iPad and Mac Photos open HEIC natively. Windows needs the HEIF extension from the Microsoft Store.
