iPhone or iOS: converting HEIC images files to JPEG on ubuntu

Converting iPhone or iOS HEIC picture files in ubuntu and import them Shotwell

Accessing your pictures on Ubuntu

This is explained here. Basically, in your file browser in your iPhone document folder:

  • Press CTRL+L to get the real address which will look like afc://YOURSERIAL:3/
  • Remove trailing colon and number and press ENTER (i.e. it should just read afc://YOURSERIAL)

Then, in the DCIM folder, all your pictures should be there including your .HEIC files.
