| Description | JPG is the file format for images made by digital cameras and spread throughout the world wide web. Saving in JPG format an image loses its quality, because of the size compression. But at the end you have a much smaller file easy to archive, send, and publish in the web. These are the cases when an image's size matters more than image's quality. Nonetheless, by using professional software you can select the compression degree and so affect the image's quality. |

JPG (or JPEG), on the other hand, is a universally accepted image format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. Given its wide compatibility across devices and platforms, JPG has long been the default format for digital photos.
While HEIC has clear advantages in terms of storage efficiency, its adoption outside the Apple ecosystem has been slow. This has led to compatibility issues when sharing HEIC images with users on other platforms or when trying to view them on devices or applications that don't support the format.
This has driven the need for conversions from HEIC to JPG. Here are some reasons why:
The conversion process involves decoding the HEIC image and then encoding it into the JPG format. Many software tools, both free and commercial, have been developed to handle this conversion, given the increasing popularity of HEIC in the Apple ecosystem.
In summary, the transition from HEIC to JPG is primarily about ensuring images are accessible and shareable across a broader range of platforms and applications. While HEIC offers notable advantages in compression and storage, the universal compatibility and recognition of JPG make it a go-to choice for many users and use-cases.
