How it works

HEIC to PNG in 4 steps

  1. Drop a HEIC or HEIF photo onto the tool or click Choose File.

  2. The photo decodes on your device - a few seconds for large shots.

  3. The lossless PNG is produced automatically, no settings needed.

  4. Download a PNG that opens in every editor.

When to use it

Choose PNG over JPG when the HEIC is headed into editing: PNG keeps every decoded pixel exactly, so nothing is lost before you start working on it. The HEIF decoder runs on your device - your photos never touch a server on the way.

  • Bring iPhone photos into editors and pipelines that expect PNG.
  • Preserve maximum quality before heavy retouching.
  • Convert reference photos for design tools without compression artifacts.

Format & quality notes

  • PNG output is lossless but large - iPhone photos often become 15-30MB PNGs. For sharing, HEIC to JPG is the compact choice.
  • Decoding happens locally via a bundled HEIF decoder; expect a few seconds per photo.
  • EXIF metadata, including GPS, is not carried into the output.
FAQ

Questions about the HEIC to PNG Converter.

PNG or JPG for my HEIC photos?

PNG if you're going to edit the photo further (lossless working copy). JPG if you're sharing it (a fraction of the size). Both converters run locally.

Why is the PNG so much bigger than the HEIC?

HEIC is a very efficient lossy format; PNG stores every pixel exactly. That's the trade - perfect fidelity costs bytes.

Is my photo uploaded to convert it?

No - the decoder is part of the page and runs in your browser. Watch the network tab if you'd like proof.
