HEIC Cropper

iPhones save photos as HEIC by default, but browsers can't display or crop HEIC directly — there's no native <img>/<canvas> support for it. This tool handles both steps at once: it converts your HEIC photo under the hood, then lets you crop it, all without ever leaving your browser.

How the HEIC Cropper works

VIPToolkit's HEIC Cropper accepts a HEIC or HEIF file, decodes it locally in your browser, and hands it straight to the same Canvas-based crop tool used across the site. Draw a freeform selection or lock it to a preset ratio (1:1, 16:9, 4:3, 9:16), then export the result as JPG — the most widely compatible format for sharing or uploading elsewhere. Nothing is sent to a server.

Common uses for cropping HEIC photos

Common use cases: trimming an iPhone photo down to a square before posting it, cutting an HEIC screenshot or portrait to a specific aspect ratio, and preparing iPhone photos for a platform that doesn't accept HEIC uploads at all. Just need the format converted without cropping? Try HEIC to JPG instead. Need to crop a JPG you already have? Use the JPG Cropper.
