About HEIC.Best

Why We Created This Free HEIC Converter and How to Use It

Our Story

HEIC.Best was born from a simple need: to provide an easy, fast, and free way to convert HEIC images taken by iPhone and other iOS devices.

Since Apple introduced the HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) format in iOS 11, users have benefited from smaller photos with the same quality, which is great for storage. However, this also brought compatibility issues—many devices, applications, and websites still do not support this relatively new format.

We found that many users struggled to share or use these photos, and the conversion process often required installing special software or paid services. That's why we created HEIC.Best—a completely free, no-install, privacy-friendly, and easy-to-use online conversion tool.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: to make digital content more accessible and usable. We believe technology should serve people, not create barriers. By providing simple tools to solve everyday digital challenges, we hope to make your digital life easier.

HEIC.Best is committed to keeping the service free forever and continuously improving user experience and conversion quality. We do not collect personal data. All uploaded images are deleted immediately after conversion, ensuring your privacy is protected.

How to Use HEIC.Best

1. Choose Conversion Format
On our homepage, you can choose to convert HEIC images to JPG, PNG, or PDF format. Each format has its own advantages depending on your needs.
2. Upload Files
Click the upload area or drag and drop your HEIC files. You can select multiple files for batch conversion, up to 50 files at a time.
3. Configure Conversion Options
Depending on the format you choose, you may see different configuration options. For example, for JPG conversion, you can adjust compression quality; for PDF conversion, you can set page size, orientation, and layout.
4. Start Conversion
After clicking the "Start Conversion" button, our server will process your files. The conversion time depends on the number and size of files, but usually only takes a few seconds.
5. Download Results
After conversion, you can download each file individually or download a ZIP archive containing all results at once. All files are sent directly to your device and are not stored on our server.

Technical Details

HEIC.Best is built with the latest open-source technologies, including libheif and libde265 for HEIC decoding, and Pillow for image processing. Our server uses a high-performance asynchronous architecture to ensure fast response even under heavy load.

All conversions are performed server-side, so you don't need to worry about device performance or installing special software. Our code is optimized to handle HEIC files of various sizes and qualities, including photos generated by iPhone and other iOS devices.
