## Questions and answers

### Are my photos uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs in your browser and the page blocks network requests to other sites, so your photos never leave your device.

### Can I convert many photos at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like. They are converted one after another so your device stays responsive, and you can download each photo or everything as a single zip.

### Does the photo keep its location and date?

No. The new file is built from the pixels only, so GPS location and camera details are removed. That is useful for privacy, but it means the date taken is not kept either.

### Why does a very large photo take longer or fail?

A 48 megapixel photo needs a lot of memory to decode. If a photo fails, close other tabs or convert it on its own.

### What if I add a JPG or PNG by mistake?

The tool tells you it is already a normal image and leaves it alone. Only HEIC and HEIF files are converted.

### Is PNG better quality than JPG?

A PNG does not lose any detail from the decoded photo, while a JPG is compressed. At High quality the difference is hard to see, and the JPG is far smaller.

### Will Most Compatible change my old photos?

No. It only affects photos you take afterwards. Earlier photos stay as HEIC until you convert them.

### क्या मेरी फ़ोटो कहीं अपलोड होती हैं?

नहीं। बदलाव आपके ब्राउज़र में होता है और पेज दूसरी साइटों को नेटवर्क रिक्वेस्ट रोकता है, इसलिए आपकी फ़ोटो आपके डिवाइस से बाहर नहीं जातीं।

### क्या एक साथ कई फ़ोटो बदल सकते हैं?

हाँ, जितनी चाहें डालें। वे एक के बाद एक बदली जाती हैं ताकि आपका डिवाइस चलता रहे, और आप हर फ़ोटो अलग से या सब कुछ एक zip में डाउनलोड कर सकते हैं।

### क्या फ़ोटो में लोकेशन और तारीख़ बनी रहती है?

नहीं। नई फ़ाइल सिर्फ़ पिक्सल से बनती है, इसलिए GPS लोकेशन और कैमरा विवरण हट जाते हैं। निजता के लिए यह अच्छा है, पर इसका मतलब है कि खींचने की तारीख़ भी नहीं रहती।

### बहुत बड़ी फ़ोटो में देर क्यों लगती है या फेल क्यों होती है?

48 मेगापिक्सल की फ़ोटो डिकोड करने में बहुत मेमोरी लगती है। फ़ोटो फेल हो तो दूसरे टैब बंद करें या उसे अकेले बदलें।

### अगर गलती से JPG या PNG डाल दूँ तो?

टूल बताता है कि वह पहले से सामान्य इमेज है और उसे छोड़ देता है। सिर्फ़ HEIC और HEIF फ़ाइलें बदली जाती हैं।
