Frequently Asked Questions
What is HEIC format?
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is Apple's default photo format for iPhone and iPad since iOS 11. It produces smaller file sizes than JPG while maintaining similar quality, saving storage space on your device. However, HEIC isn't widely supported outside of Apple devices, which is why conversion to JPG is often necessary.
Why can't Windows open HEIC files?
Windows doesn't include native HEIC support by default. While Windows 10/11 can install HEIC codecs from the Microsoft Store, many users prefer converting to JPG for universal compatibility. Converting HEIC to JPG ensures your iPhone photos work everywhere - Windows PCs, websites, email, photo editors, and sharing platforms.
Will I lose photo quality converting to JPG?
Minimal quality loss with proper settings. Diwadi converts HEIC to high-quality JPG (you can choose 80-100% quality). At 90% quality, the difference is virtually invisible to the human eye, but the JPG will be universally compatible. You control the quality vs file size tradeoff.
Can I batch convert my entire iPhone library?
Yes! Diwadi handles batch conversion of thousands of photos. Import your entire iPhone photo library (via AirDrop, USB transfer, or iCloud Photos folder) and convert all HEIC files to JPG in one operation. Much faster than converting one photo at a time with online tools.
Will EXIF data be preserved?
Yes! Diwadi preserves all EXIF metadata including date taken, location (GPS), camera settings, and other photo information. Your converted JPG files will maintain the same timestamps, location tags, and camera data as the original HEIC files.
Do I need to upload my photos?
No! Diwadi converts everything locally on your computer. Your photos never leave your device. This is crucial for privacy - your personal photos, family pictures, and sensitive images stay private. No cloud upload, no data collection, 100% local processing.
Does it work on Mac and Windows?
Yes! Diwadi works on macOS and Windows. Perfect for iPhone users who work across platforms or need to share photos with Windows users. Mac users can convert HEIC photos for sharing; Windows users can convert received iPhone photos.
How fast is batch conversion?
Very fast. Diwadi can convert hundreds of HEIC photos to JPG in seconds using your computer's GPU/CPU. No upload/download wait like online tools. For 100 photos, online tools take 5-10 minutes; Diwadi takes 10-30 seconds.
Is HEIC to JPG conversion free?
Completely free with unlimited conversions. No file limits, no watermarks, no credit card required. Convert unlimited iPhone photos forever at no cost.
Can I convert to other formats besides JPG?
Yes! Diwadi can convert HEIC to JPG, PNG, WebP, and other formats. JPG is recommended for photos due to universal compatibility and efficient compression. PNG is better for screenshots or images with text. WebP is best for web use.
