HEIC to JPG Converter Software for Windows 11 & Windows 10
HEIC is Apple's photo format and most of Windows still won't open it. Convert HEIC to JPG, PNG, TIFF or PDF in batch — point the app at a folder and the whole library converts in one pass.
EXIF metadata, GPS, orientation, and color profile carry through every file. Quality 92 is the sweet spot — about half the file size of quality 100, no visible difference.
$129 one-time. No subscription. 30-day free trial, no credit card.

Convert HEIC to JPG, PNG, TIFF or PDF
| Output format | Best for |
|---|---|
| JPG (JPEG) | The universal choice — opens on any Windows PC, website, printer or email client. |
| PNG | Lossless copies and anything that needs transparency. |
| TIFF | Archiving and print work that has to stay lossless. |
| Turn a folder of HEIC photos into a PDF document you can send or print. |
Contenta Converter reads and writes 60+ image formats, so the same batch also handles RAW, PNG, TIFF and the rest of your library.
Desktop software, not an online converter
Contenta Converter is a Windows program you install on your own PC — Windows 10 and Windows 11. It runs offline, so your photos are never uploaded to anyone's server, and there is no per-file limit and no waiting queue: drop in a folder of 10,000 HEIC files and it works through all of them. $129 one-time, no subscription, and a free trial before you buy.
What Is HEIC?
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the default photo format on iPhones and iPads since iOS 11. It produces smaller files than JPEG at similar quality — but most Windows programs, websites, and printers cannot open HEIC files. Converting to JPEG makes your photos universally compatible.
Do you even need an app for this?
Why not just use Windows built-in?
Windows 11 can open HEIC — after you install Microsoft's HEIF Image Extension ($0.99). You then get one-at-a-time “Save As JPEG” in the Photos app. If you have more than 10 photos, this is where your afternoon goes.
Why not just change the iPhone setting?
If you turn on “Most Compatible” in iOS Settings → Camera → Formats, new photos save as JPEG. Existing HEIC photos stay HEIC forever. Useful going forward, useless for the 8 years of vacation photos already on your phone.
Why not online converters?
They work for 5 photos. They fall over at 500. And every photo crosses someone else's server — not what you want for a private photo library.
Contenta runs the conversion on every CPU core — 300 photos finish in about 40 seconds on a recent laptop. A typical 4032×3024 iPhone photo: 1.5 MB as HEIC, 3.1 MB as JPEG quality 92.
HEIC questions, straight answers
Will the GPS location of my iPhone photos be preserved?
Yes, unless you tell it not to. EXIF, GPS, orientation, and color profile all carry through by default. There's also a “Strip All Metadata” option if you want the opposite.
Does “Most Compatible” mode on iPhone fix this without an app?
Only for photos taken after you flip the setting. Everything already in your library stays HEIC. That's what batch conversion is for.
What JPEG quality should I pick?
92. Files are about half the size of quality 100 and visually identical except under a magnifier. Drop to 85 for email and web, stay at 92 for archival.
What Gets Preserved
| Metadata | Preserved? | Details |
|---|---|---|
| EXIF | ✓ | Full camera settings, date/time, device info |
| GPS | ✓ | GPS coordinates and altitude |
| Orientation | ✓ | Portrait/landscape auto-rotation |
| Color Profile | ✓ | sRGB and Display P3 color profiles |
