Convert CR2 to JPG
on iPhone, privately.

A Canon CR2 straight off an SD card will not open in Messages, Mail or most apps. Filemorph converts CR2 to JPG on your iPhone or iPad, right after you import the card.

Filemorph converting a Canon CR2 raw photo to JPG on iPhone

Import photos from a Canon DSLR or mirrorless camera through a Lightning or USB-C SD card reader, and you get CR2 files — Canon's raw format, full of editing detail but not something you can text, post or upload most places without converting first.

Filemorph decodes the CR2 with ImageIO's raw image support directly on your device and renders it as a standard JPG. This uses the camera's baseline processing of the raw data; if you want specific edits reflected, make them in a raw editor before converting.

How to convert CR2 to JPG on iPhone

Free
  1. Add your photo. Open Filemorph and pick the CR2 from Files or the Share sheet.
  2. Choose To JPEG. Tap Convert and choose To JPEG as the output format.
  3. Save or share. Tap Convert. The JPG is saved locally — share it, save to Files or AirDrop it.

In the app: Convert → To JPEG.

Why convert CR2 to JPG?

JPG is what you can actually send from a phone — Messages, email, Instagram, any upload form. Keep the CR2 as your editing master on a computer later, and convert a JPG copy on your iPhone whenever you need to share a shot right away.

Is it private?

Yes. Unlike web converters that upload your files to a server, Filemorph converts every file locally using Apple's frameworks. Nothing leaves your device, and it works with no internet connection. This conversion is in the free tier.
