Is the photo uploaded?

No. Decoding and JPG export run in your browser.

Apple devices use HEIC because it can store high-quality photos in less space than JPEG.

Does conversion preserve metadata?

No guarantee. Visible pixels are converted, while EXIF, location, depth and Live Photo metadata may be discarded.

What happens with a multi-image HEIC?

The converter exports the first image returned by the browser decoder. It does not build an album or preserve animation.

About the HEIC to JPG

HEIC to JPG decodes Apple photo files and exports a standard JPEG that opens in common browsers, editors and document apps.

Choose a conservative quality, compare the resulting file size and dimensions, and download only after reviewing the preview.

The decoder runs locally after you choose a file. Visible pixels are converted, but camera, location, depth, Live Photo and other container metadata may not survive.
