Handling HEIC files on your Windows PC
We know that many iPhone and Android users struggle with Windows not supporting .heic files. Thatβs why we created CopyTrans Studio to do more than just file transfers. With CopyTrans Studio, you can easily view .heic files on your computer, whether in the app interface or any folder, thanks to the built-in codec that also lets you convert HEIC images to JPG, PNG, and PDF formats.
How to open HEIC on your PC
CopyTrans Studio includes a free image viewer called CopyTrans Viewer. To open HEIC files, LivePhotos, or other image types, simply launch CopyTrans Viewer from your Windows menu and drag and drop your images onto the interface.

π Check out this guide on how to use CopyTrans Viewer.
How to convert HEIC to JPG, PNG or PDF
Even though the HEIC format is efficient, it can be useful to convert your .HEIC photos to more convenient formats such as .JPG, .PNG, or even .PDF.
CopyTrans Studio offers the easiest way to convert your HEIC files directly from Windows Explorer, with just a right-click on the file.
