toolkit Apple ProRAW files run 25–75 MB each, so uploading a shoot to a converter means a long wait before any work starts. Here nothing is uploaded at all: drop as many ProRAW files (iPhone saves them with a .DNG extension) as you like above and each one decodes to JPG on your own device, at the speed of your processor rather than your upload link.
ProRAW is a DNG file
Apple ProRAW photos are saved with the .DNG extension — DNG is Adobe's openly published raw format, which Apple's ProRAW mode uses as its container. That means the same decoder this tool uses for other DNG files also reads Apple ProRAW files.
A whole shoot in one drop
ProRAW files are large, around 25 to 50 MB each, and decoding one is the slow part of this conversion. That is exactly why the batch runs the way it does: files are converted one at a time rather than all at once, so the tab stays responsive and each photo reports its own progress. Add fifty and you can watch them land one by one, cancel any single one, and save the finished set as one .zip. Nothing is limited or charged by the count.
Why convert it
ProRAW keeps far more of the sensor's original data than a JPEG, which is exactly why photo editors want it — but that also makes it a large file that most apps, messaging tools, and websites can't open directly. Converting to JPG gives you something you can view, share, or upload anywhere.
Orientation is preserved
The DNG orientation tag is read and applied before the pixels are handed back, so the resulting JPG comes out the right way up — matching how the photo already appears on your iPhone.
Quality control
You can set the output JPEG quality before converting. Since ProRAW starts with substantially more detail than a JPEG, higher quality settings are worth considering if file size isn't a concern.
Frequently asked questions
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. The DNG is decoded and the JPG is encoded entirely on your device via WebAssembly; nothing is sent to a server.
Can I convert a whole shoot of ProRAW files at once?
Yes. Drop them all in — there is no cap on the number. They convert one at a time so a batch of large files cannot overwhelm the tab, each shows its own progress, and the finished photos come back as a single .zip.
Does this handle Apple ProRAW specifically, or just generic DNG?
Both — Apple ProRAW files are DNG files, so the same decoder path handles them; there's no separate "ProRAW mode" needed.
Will the colors and detail match what I see in the Photos app?
The Photos app applies its own rendering and any edits you've made on top of the raw data. This tool performs a straightforward decode of the sensor data in the file, without applying Apple's specific rendering pipeline or any edits made after capture.
Will orientation be correct?
Yes — the DNG orientation tag is read and applied automatically before conversion.
Can I convert a JPG back into ProRAW?
No. ProRAW/DNG decoding is one-way here; there's no encoder that writes DNG.
