Convert HEIC to JPG on Mac

Works on Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge · No installation
macOS opens HEIC natively, but exporting a whole folder means one file at a time in Preview. This page converts up to 100 photos in a single batch, locally on the Mac.
macOS reads HEIC natively, but sharing is still awkward: Preview exports one image per action, and Photos hides the originals inside its library. Automator and Shortcuts can batch-convert, but the setup is fiddly and breaks between macOS versions.
This page runs in Safari, Chrome or Firefox on macOS, converts up to 100 files per batch, and never uploads anything.

Why convert in the browser on macOS
Batch instead of one-by-one
Preview exports one image per action. This queues up to 100 and outputs a single ZIP.
No Automator setup
No Shortcuts workflow to maintain, and nothing breaks when macOS updates.
Keeps filenames
IMG_4821.HEIC becomes IMG_4821.jpg, so your library stays in order.
How to convert HEIC → JPG
- Drag photos from Finder. Folders and multi-selections both work.
- Set quality. 92 for general use, 80 for size-limited uploads.
- Download the ZIP. Filenames preserved, metadata stripped.
Questions
Can’t Preview already export HEIC?
Yes, one file at a time. For folders, the browser route is faster than repeating File → Export.
Will this preserve the colour profile?
Output is converted to sRGB, which is what most web and office tools expect. Very wide-gamut P3 photos may look slightly less saturated than in Photos.
Does Safari work?
Yes. Safari 16.4+ can also decode HEIC natively, which makes conversion on Mac particularly fast.
