HEIC to SVG
Decode an iPhone HEIC or HEIF photo and save an SVG of curves, a PNG, or a JPEG.

Details
iPhones save photos as HEIC. This page decodes the photo, then you can trace it into an SVG of curves or save a PNG or JPEG. If the file cannot be decoded, nothing is downloaded. The SVG has no photo inside it. Camera data such as location is not kept.

Limits
If decoding fails, nothing is downloaded. PNG is lossless after the decode. JPEG is a re-encode at the quality you set.

Steps
1. Drop a .heic or .heif file.
2. Pick PNG or JPEG.
3. Download the file.

Questions
Does every HEIC open?
Only files the bundled decoder understands. Live Photo sidecars are not included.

Is the JPEG the original quality?
It is a re-encode at the quality you set, defaulting high. PNG does not compress the decoded pixels again.

Nothing is uploaded. Closing the tab drops the file.
The decode runs in the page.
