HEIC to TIFF Converter

An iPhone photo headed for a print workflow is the case: the print tool wants TIFF, and the phone original stays untouched on the phone. HEIC is the photo format iPhones use by default, efficient on the phone but unreadable in many desktop tools and browsers. This free heic to tiff converter does that conversion entirely in your browser, so your file is never uploaded and no signup is needed. TIFF output here is a single uncompressed 8-bit TIFF, suited to print and archive tools that expect TIFF rather than a web format. The honest limits: TIFF output is uncompressed, so expect a large download even from a small input. Keep the original file if you need a small web copy too.

How to use this heic to tiff converter

The converted file downloads with the same base name and the new extension, ready to use.
