About converting HEIC to PNG

Converting an iPhone HEIC photo to PNG makes sense when you need lossless quality with no compression artifacts — for further editing, or for a design tool that expects PNG — rather than the smaller, lossy result JPG would give you.

The HEIC file is decoded to a bitmap and re-encoded as PNG on a canvas, entirely in your browser. PNG is lossless, so no image detail is discarded in the conversion — the trade-off is a larger file than the equivalent JPG.

Supported files

Accepts HEIC/HEIF photos. Produces a .png image.

Is my file uploaded?

No. The photo is decoded and re-encoded as PNG entirely in your browser — it's never uploaded.

HEIC to PNG — frequently asked questions

JPG or PNG for a converted HEIC photo?+

JPG for photos (much smaller). PNG if you need lossless quality or the image has sharp edges and text.

Does it work offline?+

Yes, once the page has loaded — the conversion is local.

Is there a free way to convert iPhone HEIC photos to PNG?+

Yes — this tool decodes and re-encodes the HEIC photo as PNG entirely in your browser, free and with nothing uploaded.

Can I convert several HEIC photos at once?+

This tool converts one photo at a time. To combine several HEIC photos into one file, use HEIC to PDF instead.

Do you upload my files to a server?+

No — every tool here processes your files entirely on your device, and nothing is uploaded to a server. The only exception is the AI tools, which send the extracted text (not the file) to Claude to do their work.

Is there a file size limit?+

There's no artificial limit we impose, but since processing happens in your browser, very large files (500+ MB or 1,000+ pages) are limited by your device's memory rather than by us.
