    About the formats

    HEIC

    HEIC is the format iPhones and iPads save photos in by default. It takes roughly half the space of JPG at the same quality, but Windows, websites and upload forms often cannot open it.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is converting HEIC to ICO free?

    Yes, completely free. No account, no daily limit, no watermark and no queue.

    Does converting to ICO improve quality?

    No. ICO keeps the current picture exactly but cannot restore detail lost when the HEIC was saved. The benefit is that further edits will not degrade it any more.

    Does it work on a phone?

    Yes. It works on iPhone, iPad and Android, with no app to install.

    Is there a file size limit?

    There is no size limit set by us. Files of hundreds of MB convert too; very large files take longer and are handled more comfortably on a computer than on a phone.
