About the HEIC to PNG Converter
We built this HEIC to PNG Converter to provide a simple way to make your iPhone photos usable everywhere. HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is a great format for saving space on your Apple devices, but it can be a headache when you try to open these files on a Windows PC, upload them to a website, or edit them in certain software.
Why convert to PNG instead of JPG? PNG is a "lossless" format. This means when we convert your HEIC file to PNG, we preserve every bit of detail from the original image without adding the compression artifacts that sometimes appear in JPGs. This makes PNG the perfect choice if you plan to edit the photo later, add text to it, or if you just want the highest possible quality for archiving.
Just like our other tools, privacy is our priority. This converter runs directly in your web browser. Your personal photos are processed locally on your computer and are never uploaded to our servers, ensuring your data stays completely safe and private.
How to Use the Tool
- Drag and drop your HEIC file into the upload area, or click "Browse" to find it on your device.
- The tool will process the file and display a preview of your image.
- If you want to remove parts of the photo, use the crop box that appears over the image.
- Use the "Resize" fields if you need the final image to have specific width or height dimensions.
- Check the preview panel to make sure the image looks correct.
- Click "Download .png" to save the converted file to your computer.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between HEIC and PNG?
HEIC is a modern, compressed format used by Apple that saves space. PNG is a widely supported, lossless format. While HEIC files are smaller, PNG files are compatible with almost every piece of software and preserve image quality perfectly without compression artifacts.
Will I lose quality converting to PNG?
No. PNG is a lossless format, meaning it stores image data perfectly. When you convert from HEIC to PNG, you retain the visual quality of the original photo. However, the file size of the PNG will likely be larger than the original HEIC file because of this higher fidelity.
Does this tool work on Windows and Android?
Yes! Since this tool runs in your web browser (like Chrome, Firefox, or Edge), it works on any operating system. It is a great way to view and convert iPhone photos on a Windows PC or Android phone without installing extra software.
Is it safe to convert personal photos?
Yes, it is completely safe. We use advanced browser technology to convert your files locally on your device. Your images are never sent to the cloud or stored by us, so your privacy is guaranteed.
Why is the "Quality" slider missing?
The "Quality" slider is used for lossy formats like JPG or WEBP. Since PNG is a lossless format, there is no quality setting to adjust—you always get the highest possible quality automatically.
