About the HEIC to TIFF Converter
This HEIC to TIFF converter turns photos from HEIC into TIFF without installing software or uploading anything. It solves a common problem: Windows PCs, many Android phones and most upload portals cannot open HEIC photos. Converting to TIFF gives you a lossless, print-ready TIFF, ideal for scanned documents, print production, archiving and professional photo masters.
The converter decodes your HEIC with your browser's own image engine and writes the TIFF with a small open-source TIFF encoder, so quality settings are applied precisely. Because everything happens on your own device, your photos are never uploaded, stored or seen by anyone else, which makes it safe for ID photos, Aadhaar or PAN scans and personal pictures.
What to expect: TIFF stores the pixels without further quality loss; camera metadata such as GPS location is removed because the image is re-encoded.
How to use the HEIC to TIFF Converter
- Click "Choose files" or drag your HEIC photos onto the box. You can add several at once.
- Optionally set a maximum width to resize while converting; leave it empty to keep the original size.
- Press "Convert to TIFF". The conversion runs on your device and shows its progress.
- Download each TIFF file, or use "Download all (ZIP)" when you converted several.
- Open the result in Photoshop or GIMP to check it; your original HEIC is never changed.
Tips & benchmarks
- TIFF output is uncompressed for maximum compatibility, so expect large files that print and archive perfectly.
- Converting a compressed HEIC to TIFF will not bring back detail that was already discarded; it simply prevents further loss when you edit.
- iPhone users can avoid HEIC altogether: Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible makes the camera save JPG photos.
- Keep the file name simple (letters, numbers and hyphens) if you plan to upload the TIFF to a website or government portal.

What is a HEIC file?
HEIC is the photo format iPhones and iPads use by default since iOS 11. It stores a photo in about half the space of a JPG at the same quality, but many Windows PCs, websites and government portals still refuse to open it.
What is a TIFF file?
TIFF was created by Aldus in 1986 for desktop publishing and scanning. It keeps images at full quality and can hold several pages in one file, which is why scanners, printers, archives and fax systems still use it.
