HEIC to JPG converter for Windows
Windows won't show HEIC photos until you buy the HEVC extension, and plenty of websites and printers won't take them at all. Drop them on Vow and get JPGs that are upright, in true colours and dated when they were taken. Your photos never leave your PC.


The problem
Your iPhone saves HEIC, Windows wants a paid extension before it will show one, and half the upload forms you need refuse the format outright.
Double-click a HEIC photo and Windows sends you to the Store to buy the HEVC extension before it will show it.
Websites, upload forms, older programs and photo printers that simply won't accept a HEIC.
Online HEIC converters need your photos, GPS location and all, sent to their servers before they convert a single one.
Careless converters lose the rotation or the iPhone's wide colours, so photos come back on their side or dull.
Converted files dated today instead of the day they were taken, so your folders and albums end up out of order.
The moving part of a Live Photo is a separate movie that most converters ignore, so the moment is lost.
Vow HEIC to JPG Converter fixes all of it.
How it works
A whole camera roll in one click, upright and true to colour, and your photos stay on your PC.
Drag photos or a whole folder onto the window, paste them with Ctrl+V, or right-click HEIC files in Explorer. Every photo is listed with its camera and date.


Click a photo to see it large, zoom to full size, watch its Live Photo move, or read every detail: camera, lens, exposure and where it was taken.
Click Convert. JPGs land next to the originals, named like them and dated when the photos were taken. A 12-megapixel photo takes about a quarter of a second.


Features
For iPhone owners, families swapping photos, and anyone whose printer or website says "unsupported file".
Its own HEIC decoder is built in, so photos open and convert on any Windows 10 or 11 PC without buying anything.
Each photo's rotation is applied and the orientation tag reset, so nothing turns twice in another app.
iPhone Display P3 colours are converted to sRGB so photos look right on every screen, or keep the original profile.
File dates are set to the moment each photo was taken, so Explorer, Google Photos and OneDrive sort them correctly.
JPG, PNG, WebP (lossy or lossless), TIFF, PDF (a page per photo or all in one) and AVIF.
Quality presets, 4K, 2048 or 1080 sizes, and a file-size limit that finds the best quality under "500 KB".
The moving part of each Live Photo becomes an MP4 with sound that plays everywhere, or a looping GIF (Unlimited).
Date, camera, lens, exposure, GPS and colour profile carried into the JPG, or everything but the location (Unlimited).
Convert to JPG with Vow from the menu on any HEIC file; with Unlimited it converts on the spot.
Point it at your iCloud Photos or OneDrive camera upload folder and new HEIC photos convert by themselves (Unlimited).
Light & dark theme
HEIC to JPG comes with a crisp light theme and a calm dark theme. Switch with one click, or let it follow your Windows setting by itself. It remembers your choice.
