What is a HEIF file?
HEIF is a modern image format that offers better compression and quality than JPEG. It supports animations, transparency, and multiple images in one file — similar to a container format.
Apple adopted HEIF as the default photo format in iOS 11, replacing JPEG for new photos.
How to open HEIF files
HEIF files can be opened on iOS and macOS devices natively, and on Windows 10+ with extensions. Software like GIMP and Photoshop (with plugins) also support HEIF.
To convert HEIF to JPG or PNG, AnyConv provides a fast and reliable online option.

What is a JPG file?
JPG (or JPEG) stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group, the team that created the standard back in the early 1990s. It’s one of the most common image formats in the world, known for compressing digital photos while retaining acceptable quality.
JPG uses lossy compression, which means some image data is discarded during saving. This makes JPG files smaller, ideal for web use, email, and social sharing — but less ideal for images that require fine detail or multiple edits.
How to open JPG files
JPG files can be opened on virtually any device — Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Linux — using default apps like Photos, Preview, or third-party software such as Photoshop and GIMP. Even web browsers can display JPGs natively.
This universal support makes JPG the go-to format for photography, online graphics, and digital documents.
