What changes when you convert HEIC to TIFF

  • Every decoded pixel is written exactly — TIFF is lossless here. Converting cannot restore detail HEIC compression already discarded; it only stops further loss.
  • Transparency is kept.
  • Camera details and GPS location (EXIF) are not copied into the new file. Photo orientation is applied to the pixels first, so the result is the right way up.
  • Expect a much larger file: TIFF here is uncompressed, about width × height × 4 bytes — roughly 48 MB for a 12-megapixel photo.

About HEIC and TIFF files

HEIC is the format iPhones save photos in by default. It is roughly half the size of an equivalent JPEG, but Windows, Android and most websites cannot open it without extra software.

TIFF is the format of printing, scanning and archiving. The files written here are uncompressed, so they are large, but every pixel is kept exactly. It is a good choice for print shops, scanning workflows and archives that ask for TIFF.

Limits

Up to 30 files of 25 MB each per batch and images up to 50 megapixels — beyond that browsers run out of memory, so the tool says so instead of producing a broken file. HEIC decoding uses libheif in the background and can take a few seconds per photo on a phone. Files that are not images, or are damaged, are rejected with the reason.

Frequently asked questions

Are my images uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs in your browser on your own device (the HEIC decoder, about 2 MB, is downloaded from this site the first time you convert), and this page has no upload endpoint. Once the page has loaded it keeps working offline.

Is HEIC to TIFF lossless?

Yes, for the pixels: TIFF stores every decoded pixel exactly. It cannot restore detail already lost in the HEIC file.

Why is the TIFF so large, and is it print-ready?

It is uncompressed, so every pixel is stored in full. It is a standard baseline TIFF that print and layout software opens; resolution is set to 72 dpi, which you can change in your layout program without resampling.

What happens to transparency?

It is kept.

How many files can I convert at once?

Up to 30 files of 25 MB each per batch, and images up to 50 megapixels. Convert them together and download each one, or take them all as a ZIP.
