Methodology & calculation rule
Decode HEVC/HEIF container → Composite onto white RGB canvas → Encode baseline JPEG (Quality 82)
HEIC compression is lossy; re-encoding to JPEG applies a second lossy pass. Transparency is flattened onto solid white.
All image processing executes client-side within your browser sandbox via HTML5 Canvas and WebAssembly. No photographs, bitmaps, or metadata are ever uploaded to remote servers.
Output files are generated in-memory as local object URLs. Files must be smaller than 20 MB and under 24 megapixels.
Real-World Context & Technical Standards
Apple iOS Default Camera Container
Since iOS 11, iPhones record photos in High Efficiency Image File Format (HEIC/HEIF) utilizing HEVC compression to cut storage footprint by approximately 50% compared to legacy JPEG at equivalent visual quality.
Universal Desktop & Browser Support
While modern macOS and iOS render HEIC natively, legacy Windows builds, web forms, and older graphics suites fail to parse HEIC bitstreams without third-party codec extensions, requiring local client-side conversion to JPEG.
Zero-Upload Client-Side Transcoding
Browser-based WebAssembly/WASM decoders parse HEIC binary containers directly in memory, transforming raw YUV pixel planes into standard RGB buffers without uploading personal camera photos to remote servers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are my private photos uploaded to a server?
No. The entire decoding and JPEG encoding pipeline runs inside your browser sandbox on your device.
Does converting HEIC to JPG preserve Live Photo video clips?
No. This tool processes the primary still photograph keyframe only; motion tracks and depth maps are not retained.
Why did my file size increase?
HEIC utilizes high-efficiency HEVC compression. Standard JPEG requires significantly more byte payload for comparable visual clarity.
