Convert HEIC to WEBP

Turn HEIC files into WEBP instantly.

Quick answer

To convert HEIC to WEBP, upload your HEIC file to ezimagetools.com and press Convert — the WEBP comes back in a few seconds. HEIC is the reason an iPhone photo gets rejected by a website, refuses to open on Windows, or lands in someone's inbox as a file they cannot view. A little, because a picture that has already been compressed once is being compressed again. It is free, needs no account, and your upload is deleted within an hour.

About HEIC

HEIC is what an iPhone saves photos as by default. It stores a photo at roughly half the size of an equivalent JPG, and almost nothing outside Apple's own software can open one.

Why WEBP instead

Converting to WEBP is how you make a page lighter without making it look worse: the same picture, roughly a third fewer bytes, and no browser released in the last five years will struggle with it.

Questions people ask

Why convert HEIC to WEBP?

HEIC is the reason an iPhone photo gets rejected by a website, refuses to open on Windows, or lands in someone's inbox as a file they cannot view. Converting it makes the same photo work everywhere, with no visible change. Converting to WEBP is how you make a page lighter without making it look worse: the same picture, roughly a third fewer bytes, and no browser released in the last five years will struggle with it.

Will I lose quality converting HEIC to WEBP?

A little, because a picture that has already been compressed once is being compressed again. A single conversion is not something you can see. Converting back and forth repeatedly is, so convert once and keep the result.

Can I convert several HEIC files at once?

Yes — add up to 20 files and they are converted together, then handed back as a single ZIP. Every file uses the same settings, so a whole folder of photos comes out consistent.

What is a HEIC file?

HEIC is what an iPhone saves photos as by default. It stores a photo at roughly half the size of an equivalent JPG, and almost nothing outside Apple's own software can open one.

Does converting change the size or dimensions of the picture?

The width and height in pixels stay exactly the same — only the way those pixels are stored changes, which is what changes the file size. Expect the WEBP to be smaller than the HEIC in most cases. Use the Resize tool if you want to change the dimensions too.
