Online HEIC to TIFF converter
Free Online HEIC to TIFF Converter
Convert Apple HEIC (High Efficiency Image Coding) photos from iPhone and iPad into TIFF (Tagged Image File Format). While HEIC uses HEVC compression to save space on mobile devices, many prepress systems, desktop publishing suites (Adobe InDesign, QuarkXPress), GIS tools, and scientific or archival repositories require standard TIFF files that do not depend on proprietary HEVC patent-encumbered decoders.
Why convert HEIC to TIFF instead of JPEG?
- No second-generation JPEG artifacts: Converting HEIC to JPG introduces 8×8 DCT block compression on top of the original HEVC encoding. Exporting to TIFF stores the decoded pixel data without additional lossy compression.
- Print & prepress compatibility: Commercial print shops and RIP software universally accept TIFF files and preserve full resolution and EXIF metadata.
- Editing headroom: Working with a TIFF intermediate file in Photoshop, Affinity Photo, or GIMP prevents cumulative quality degradation across multiple saves.
How to convert HEIC to TIFF

.heicphoto from your device or paste a direct URL. - Convert: Click Convert to TIFF! to decode the HEIC container into a standard
.tiffimage. - Download or edit: Save the TIFF file to your computer, or use our resize and crop tools first.
