Possible for me to convert .heic images into jpg with this Android apps? I usually do this on my Windows 10 PC with HEIF extension but really need an solution on Android. Some of the iPhone users sent me .heic images from time to time.

thanks for the update. I will convert the heic images on computer then load it on xnview android app.

P.S I just converted the images using the tool suggested in this link but the quality is decreased a bit after conversion.

Thanks for the link, but would there be another way to convert .heic images? I've got several colleagues that use iPhones and it's getting annoying to have to copy the .heic images to my PC and convert them via an online tool every time; and I need to keep the quality of the pictures as high as possible.
