Why iPhone Photos Won't Open on Windows (And How to Fix It)

By Image Size Compress Team

You transferred photos from your iPhone to your Windows laptop, but you can't see them. You just see a blank icon that says .HEIC. Windows does not support Apple's new format by default.

Don't Buy the Windows Extension

Microsoft tries to charge you $0.99 for the HEIC codec. Don't pay it. You don't need to install software that slows down your computer.

The Instant Fix

Use our **HEIC to JPG Converter**. It runs in your browser. 1. Select all your iPhone photos. 2. Drag them into the browser. 3. Download them as standard JPGs. 4. Now they work on Windows, Android, TV, and everywhere else.

Is it Secure?

Yes. Unlike other converters, our tool processes images offline in your browser. Your personal photos are never uploaded to a cloud server. It's the safest way to convert personal memories.
