Why convert HEIC to JPG?
HEIC is efficient and common on iPhones, but many websites, office tools and older devices still expect JPG. A correct conversion decodes the pixels, respects orientation and colour, then encodes a real target file—it does not merely rename the extension.
What does “local conversion” mean?
The decoder is delivered by ImgIng, while your photo is never sent to ImgIng. HEIC decoding, resizing and JPG encoding run inside the browser. HEIC writing remains a clearly labelled server-side capability because of HEVC encoder size and patent constraints.

Frequently asked questions
These visible answers match the current product behaviour and structured data.
Does HEIC to JPG upload my photo?
No. The full build uses libheif WASM to decode HEIC locally, so the source pixels stay on your device.
Will JPG reduce quality?
JPG is lossy. Use the quality control to balance size and detail. The UI value 100 maps to an actual encoder quality of 99 to avoid extreme size with negligible visual gain.
Can I convert HEIC to WebP or AVIF?
Yes. WebP is a strong compatibility/size balance for modern sites; AVIF can be smaller but takes longer to encode.
