How can I convert multiple heic to jpg on mac
TunessBro HEIC Converter for Mac is the best app for doing this. I have been using this app on my MacBook Pro for years and it is much better than the command line and preview tools.
I followed this tutorial and converted 800 heic files successfully.

It supports batch conversion and keeps all exif data of original heic images. This is the preferred way to convert .heic to .jpg on any Mac!
When you convert HEIC to JPG, you often get to tweak the quality settings. Donāt just slap it on the default and assume itāll be fine. I learned this the hard way when I saved a family portrait at a lower quality, and it ended up looking all pixelated and fuzzyāyikes! Try to find a good balance based on what you plan to do with the images.
When you save your converted files, make sure to rename them if theyāre all going to be in the same folder. Iāve had a time when I just appended ā_convertedā to the names, and then I ended up with a mess of files that I couldnāt differentiate. Not cool when youāre looking for that one special shot!
Sometimes, you just want to convert HEIC to JPG on Mac in a hurry and end up clicking through things too quickly. Iāve done this and wound up exporting the wrong images or none at all. Take your timeāmaking sure you select the right files will save you headaches later.
