Convert HEIC to JPG on Windows

Open iPhone HEIC photos on Windows. No software to install — just use your browser.

No signup. No install. Files processed in your browser — nothing uploaded.

Windows does not natively open HEIC files (the default iPhone photo format) without installing the HEIF Extensions from the Microsoft Store. fileGOD converts HEIC to JPG directly in your browser — no software install, no upload, no account. Drop in your HEIC files and download JPGs instantly. The HEIF Extensions from Microsoft cost $0.99 and occasionally fail to install on managed enterprise machines. Third-party tools like CopyTrans HEIC require installation and admin privileges. fileGOD sidesteps all of this — open Chrome or Edge, drop in your files, and get JPGs. Particularly useful on work computers where you cannot install software or on shared devices where you want zero footprint.

Why can't Windows open HEIC files?

Can I convert HEIC to PNG instead?
