Converting HEIC to JPEG for E-learning Courses
iPhones save photos as HEIC by default, and not every site accepts it. Course platforms serve the same images to many students, often on slow connections, so lean files improve the learning experience.
Recommended settings for e-learning courses
| Setting | Starting point |
|---|---|
| Format | JPEG (WebP where accepted) |
| Width | about 1600 px on the long edge |
| Quality | 78 |
| File size | 200 KB or less |
These are practical defaults. If the platform or form you are using publishes its own limits, follow those instead.
Converting HEIC to JPEG
When you pick photos through the browser file picker, iOS usually converts them to JPEG automatically. On other systems, open the HEIC in your photo app and export as JPEG.
Once you have a JPEG, compress it to around 200 KB for e-learning courses. JPEG is accepted almost everywhere.
