Compress HEIC photos without losing compatibility
HEIC files from an iPhone are already fairly compact, but they only open on Apple devices and recent software. best-img.com compresses your HEIC photos and converts them to JPG at the same time — so you get a smaller file that also opens absolutely everywhere, on any device, browser, or platform.
How it works
Drop your HEIC photos
Drag and drop one or more .HEIC files into the drop zone, or select them from your device.
Adjust the quality
Pick the compression level that fits your needs (80–90 is a good starting point for photos).
Download the result
Get your compressed, universally-compatible photos individually or all at once.
Why use best-img to compress HEIC photos
- Total privacy: your photos are processed locally in your browser, never uploaded to a server.
- Compression and universal compatibility in a single step (HEIC in, compressed JPG out).
- Fine-grained quality control, not a one-size-fits-all compression level.
- No sign-up required for the free tier (20 images/day).
- Also convert to WebP or AVIF instead of JPG if you prefer, using the same tool.
Frequently asked questions
Can I keep the HEIC format after compressing?
No — browsers can't encode HEIC files, so compressing a HEIC photo also converts it, by default to JPG (or WebP/AVIF if you choose). This also solves compatibility issues at the same time.
Does this reduce photo quality visibly?
At the recommended settings (80–90), the quality loss is not noticeable to the naked eye, while the file size drops significantly.
Can I compress several HEIC files at once?
Yes, drop as many HEIC files as you like and compress them all in one batch.
Does this remove photo metadata (EXIF)?
Yes, metadata is stripped during compression, which also helps reduce file size and protects your privacy (e.g. GPS location data).
Is there a file size limit?
The free plan supports batches up to 5MB total; the Premium plan raises that to 75MB per batch.
