HEIC Batch to JPG

What it does

Sending a batch of iPhone photos anywhere outside Apple's ecosystem usually means converting them one by one, because HEIC is still a foreign format to Windows machines and most upload forms. This shortcut skips that. Select any number of photos, and Filemorph's Batch Convert Images action rewrites the whole set as JPG in a single pass, using the phone's own image pipeline — no photo is sent anywhere to make the conversion happen. The free tier processes up to three photos per run, which covers the odd handful for a form or an email; heavier batches unlock with Pro. Save the results to Files or hand them straight to Mail or Messages.

FAQ

Do the photos get uploaded while converting?

No. Batch Convert Images runs entirely on your iPhone's image pipeline; the shortcut works with the network off.

How many photos can I convert at once?

The free tier converts up to three photos per run. Filemorph Pro ($29.99/year, 7-day trial) removes that cap for larger batches.
