heic.now is a free online HEIC converter and image toolkit built around Apple's iPhone photo format — convert HEIC to JPG, PNG, PDF, WebP, AVIF, GIF, BMP, TIFF, SVG, ICO and more in one click, go the other way and turn JPG, PNG, WebP, RAW files and 80+ other formats into space-saving HEIC, compress HEIC photos even further, and run AI-powered image edits like background removal, photo upscaling, OCR text extraction and prompt-to-image generation. Everything works from your browser with no software installation; lightweight utilities run locally on your device, while conversions and AI tools are processed securely on our servers.
Built for iPhone owners, photographers, designers, students, office workers and anyone who's hit "this file type isn't supported", heic.now handles the messy real-world cases: open HEIC photos on Windows without paying for the HEVC codec, batch-convert a camera roll of HEICs into JPGs for an upload form or CMS that rejects them, email iPhone photos to someone on an older Android or legacy software, bundle a HEIC photo shoot into a single multi-page PDF, or shrink a folder of JPG and PNG images into HEIC files roughly 40–50% smaller at the same visual quality. And once your photos are in JPG, our sister site JPG.now picks up the JPG-centric side — converting anything to and from JPG, compressing JPGs, and turning JPGs into PDFs.
The AI tools layer modern image-processing models on top of the converter: remove a background from product photos and portraits with a single click, upscale low-resolution images 2× or 4× with super-resolution that recovers fine detail, extract text from photos, screenshots and scanned PDFs in 50+ languages, and generate original images from a text prompt in your choice of art style. Every AI tool is free to try, with sensible daily limits and an optional Premium plan for power users.
Privacy is the default. Files are encrypted in transit, stored only as long as the conversion needs them, and automatically deleted within 24 hours for guests (with longer retention on account plans). We don't use uploaded files to train AI models or sell their contents, and files remain inside the conversion pipeline until scheduled deletion.

HEIC has been Apple's default camera format on iPhone and iPad since iOS 11 (2017). It stores photos in a HEIF container compressed with the HEVC (H.265) codec, producing files roughly 40–50% smaller than an equivalent-quality JPEG while supporting 10-bit colour, HDR, Live Photos and depth maps. The catch: Windows needs a paid codec to open it, and many websites, email clients and older Android devices reject it — which is exactly the gap heic.now fills.
