How do I convert HEIC to JPG on my computer?

Simply drop your HEIC file onto FileWash, select JPEG as the output format, and download the converted file. HEIC is the default photo format on iPhones — FileWash converts them to universally compatible JPEG, PNG, or WebP formats entirely in your browser, without uploading the photo anywhere.

What is the difference between PNG and JPEG?

JPEG uses lossy compression and is best for photographs — files are smaller but some quality is lost. PNG uses lossless compression and supports transparency — ideal for graphics, logos, and screenshots where sharp edges matter. WebP offers the best of both worlds with smaller files than either format.

How do I convert images to WebP format?

Drop any PNG, JPEG, GIF, or BMP image onto FileWash and select WebP as the output format. WebP typically produces files 25-35% smaller than JPEG at equivalent visual quality, and supports transparency like PNG. It is supported by all modern browsers.

Can I convert multiple images at once?

Yes. You can select or drop multiple images at the same time and they will all be converted to your chosen format. Each converted file can be downloaded individually.

Does converting image format change quality?

Converting to JPEG or WebP involves lossy compression, so there is a small quality reduction (FileWash uses 92% quality by default, which is visually indistinguishable from the original). Converting to PNG is lossless — no quality is lost. Converting between lossy formats multiple times will gradually degrade quality.
