Are my photos and videos uploaded to a server?

Never. The whole conversion happens inside your browser, on your own device. Nothing is sent, there is no server to receive it and no copy is kept anywhere.

What is a HEIC file and why can my computer not open it?

HEIC is the format iPhones use to save photos since iOS 11: it takes up less space, which means more photos fit on your phone. The downside is that Windows, older Android phones and many apps cannot open it. Converting it to PNG, JPG or WebP solves it.

Why are iPhone videos in MOV and HEVC format?

Because that is how iPhones record video: good quality in less space. The problem is that not every player, editor or social network accepts it. Converting to MP4 makes it play anywhere, including WhatsApp, Instagram and any TV.

Is it free? Do I need an account?

It is completely free: no sign-up, no email, no watermark and no file limit. The work is done by your own device, so keeping it free costs us nothing.

Can I convert many files at once?

Yes. Drop as many photos as you like, convert them together, copy them or download them all in a single ZIP. Videos are converted one by one so your device does not run out of memory.

Does it work offline or on my phone?

Yes. Once the page is open everything works on your device, so you can convert with no internet connection at all. It works on Android, iPhone, Windows, Mac and Linux.

What happens to the photo I copy to the clipboard?

It goes straight to your clipboard, ready to paste into a chat, a document or an editor. It is created on your device and never leaves it.
