Images are never enlarged. Extremely large images may be reduced for browser safety.

Most HEIC photos are opaque. This setting controls any transparent decoded pixels.

PNG has no quality slider: PNG encoding is lossless. The output can be much larger than HEIC because it does not use lossy photographic compression.

Convert iPhone HEIC photos to PNG privately

This HEIC to PNG Converter decodes HEIC and HEIF images and creates standard PNG files directly inside your browser. Your selected photos are not sent to a conversion server.

PNG uses lossless compression, supports transparent pixels, and is widely compatible with browsers, design software, documentation tools, and image editors. It is especially useful for screenshots, graphics, cutouts, and images that require exact pixel preservation after decoding.

PNG output is often larger than the original HEIC, particularly for detailed photographs. HEIC is optimized for efficient photo storage, while PNG preserves decoded pixels without another lossy stage.

What is included in the PNG?

The converter creates a new PNG from the primary decoded still image. Original metadata, GPS data, depth maps, Live Photo video, editing history, thumbnails, and auxiliary images are not copied.

Premium capabilities

A complete browser-based HEIC to PNG converter

Convert individual iPhone photos or a full batch with private processing, lossless output, transparency handling, previews, and downloads.

Private local decoding

HEIC files are decoded and rendered inside the browser rather than uploaded to a server.

Lossless PNG encoding

PNG output does not add JPEG-style quality loss or another lossy compression stage.

Transparency handling

Preserve transparent decoded pixels or flatten the image onto white or black.

Memory-conscious batches

Photos are processed sequentially instead of decoding the entire batch simultaneously.

Transparent PNG previews

Review output dimensions, size, background treatment, and a full checkerboard preview.

PNG and ZIP downloads

Save each converted image separately or package all completed PNG files in one ZIP archive.

Best practices for HEIC to PNG conversion

1

Keep the original HEIC file

Preserve the source when you may need its metadata, depth information, auxiliary images, or Apple-specific features later.

2

Expect larger photographic files

PNG is lossless but often less storage-efficient than HEIC for detailed camera photographs.

3

Preserve transparency for editing

Keep alpha transparency when the PNG will be used in design software or compositing.

4

Resize copies intended for the web

Reducing very large photos can lower memory use and create more practical web assets.

Common questions

HEIC to PNG Converter FAQ

How do I convert HEIC to PNG online?

Choose or drag HEIC or HEIF photos into the converter, select dimensions and background handling, start conversion, and then download each PNG or all completed images in a ZIP archive.

Is this HEIC to PNG converter free?

Yes. The converter is free to use, requires no account, and does not add a watermark to converted PNG images.

Are my HEIC photos uploaded to a server?

No. HEIC and HEIF files are decoded and converted locally inside your browser. The decoder library is downloaded by the page, but your selected photos are not uploaded for conversion.

Is PNG conversion lossless?

PNG encoding is lossless after the HEIC image has been decoded. PNG does not add another lossy compression stage, although it cannot restore detail already discarded when the source HEIC was created.

Does HEIC to PNG conversion preserve metadata?

No. This browser conversion creates a new PNG from decoded pixels and does not preserve original HEIC metadata such as EXIF, GPS, camera details, depth maps, or editing information.

Does the converter preserve Live Photo video or every image in a HEIC container?

No. The converter creates a PNG from the primary still image. Live Photo video, image sequences, depth data, thumbnails, and auxiliary images are not included in the PNG output.

Can I convert multiple HEIC photos to PNG?

Yes. You can add up to 50 HEIC or HEIF files. They are processed sequentially to reduce browser memory pressure and can be downloaded individually or together in one ZIP.
