About the formats

HEIC, the iPhone photo format

HEIC (HEIF) is the format iPhone and iPad save photos in by default, based on the HEVC codec.

Strengths: It takes roughly half the space of a JPG at the same quality.

Limits: Windows, Android and many websites cannot open it without extra software.

ICO, Windows icons and favicons

ICO is the container for Windows icons and website favicons, holding several sizes in one file.

Strengths: A single ICO carries the icon at 16, 32, 48 and 256 pixels so it looks sharp everywhere.

Limits: It is only meant for icons, not for large photos.

Frequently asked questions

Is my HEIC uploaded to a server to turn it into ICO?

No. The HEIC to ICO conversion runs entirely in your browser, with code downloaded from this site and executed on your device. You can check it in the Network tab of the developer tools or by going offline after the page loads.

Is there a size limit?

Your device’s memory sets the limit: on desktop, images up to about 100 megapixels; on mobile, up to 16.7. If an image is too large you are told before it starts.

Can I convert several HEIC files at once?

Yes. Drop as many HEIC files as you like: several are converted at the same time, depending on your processor cores, and when they finish you can download each ICO or all of them in a ZIP.
