Frequently Asked Questions

Does Windows 10/11 support HEIC natively?

Windows 10 has no native HEIC support at all — files appear as blank icons. Windows 11 has partial support since the November 2023 cumulative update (KB5032190), but behavior varies. Both versions may prompt you to install HEIF Image Extensions from the Microsoft Store, which can be paid. Using a browser converter is the simplest solution for all Windows versions.

Do I need to install anything?

No. The converter runs inside Chrome, Edge, or Firefox — all pre-installed on Windows 10/11. Nothing to download, nothing to install, no sign-up required.

Will my EXIF data (date, GPS, camera model) be preserved?

Yes. The converter preserves original EXIF metadata in the output JPG, so photos retain their capture date, location, and camera information.

Are my photos safe?

Yes. All processing happens locally on your Windows PC using WebAssembly. Photos never leave your machine or reach any server.
