How to upload iPhone photos to a form that rejects them

Forms usually reject iPhone photos for one of two reasons: they’re HEIC files, or they’re over the size limit. Convert them to JPG, then compress them to the form’s limit, or use Upload fixer, which does both in one go.

  2. 2Compress image to 100 KB
Start step 1: HEIC to JPG

Each step passes your file to the next, so you only add it once. Nothing is uploaded.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Turn them into JPGs

    JPG is the format every form accepts. Add several photos at once if you like.

    Open HEIC to JPG
  2. 2

    Compress them to the form’s limit

    Most forms say their limit near the upload button. This page aims for 100 KB; pick another size, such as 200 KB or 1 MB, if the form allows more.

    Open Compress image to 100 KB

Questions

Is there a one-step way?

Yes: Upload fixer. Tick the types the form accepts, type its size limit, and it converts and compresses in one go, even turning photos into a PDF if that’s all the form takes.

How do I stop my iPhone taking HEIC photos?

Settings, Camera, Formats, Most Compatible. New photos are then JPG, though they take more space on your phone.
