How do I convert HEIC to BMP?

Upload your HEIC file above. It is converted to BMP automatically (change the output format or quality in the Settings tab if you need to), then click Download. There is nothing to install.

Does converting HEIC to BMP lose quality?

No new loss is added: BMP stores the picture exactly as it is. Detail that HEIC compression removed earlier can’t be restored.

HEIC is how iPhones and iPads save photos by default. It needs up to half the space of a JPG at similar quality, but many Windows PCs, Android apps and websites still can’t open it.

Is the HEIC to BMP converter free?

Yes. Convert, preview and download a single result without creating an account. Premium adds batch conversion (many files into one ZIP) and larger uploads.

Why convert HEIC to BMP?

BMP is supported far more widely than HEIC, so the file is easier to open, share and upload.
BMP is lossless, so the converted image loses no further detail when you edit and save it again.
BMP is made for older Windows programs, embedded devices and tools that need raw pixels.

What to expect when converting HEIC to BMP

Converting can’t bring back detail that HEIC compression already removed: the BMP is an exact copy of the image as it is, usually in a bigger file.
High-dynamic-range and wide-colour detail is converted to standard 8-bit colour.
