Mac users can convert HEIC images to JPEG or PNG with hidden tool

popsci.com

Mac users can easily convert HEIC images to more accessible formats like JPEG or PNG using a hidden tool. By selecting photos in Finder, right-clicking, and choosing "Convert Image" under "Quick Actions," users can convert multiple images quickly. The conversion tool allows users to select image size but lacks options for fine-tuning quality or choosing a different save location. For more control, users can open images in Preview, select them, and use the "Export selected images" option to adjust settings before saving. This method provides a faster alternative to manually exporting each photo, making it easier to share images with Windows users. The original HEIC files remain in the folder after conversion.
