Can’t I do what SMAWL does for free?

January 2023

No. At this time, Apple’s Photos apps (both iOS and macOS) don’t offer a way to convert a RAW photo to JPEG or HEIC.

We found one workaround: We sent a RAW or ProRAW photo to ourselves via Messages, automatically converting it to a JPEG. Then we saved the image back to our Photo Library. Then, finally, we went back to Messages and deleted the message with the original JPEG.
