About the HEIC to PNG Converter
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the photo format used by default on iPhones and iPads, offering great compression — but it isn't widely supported outside Apple's ecosystem. Our free online HEIC to PNG converter turns your .heic or .heif photos into standard .png files that open everywhere, on any operating system or software.
PNG is a lossless format, so nothing is discarded during conversion, and it fully supports transparency, unlike JPG. That makes it the right choice when you need pixel-perfect quality or a transparent background. Conversion happens entirely inside your browser — your photos are never uploaded to a server, keeping them fast and completely private.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does PNG preserve transparency from HEIC?
Yes. HEIC files that contain an alpha channel are converted to PNG while fully retaining their transparent backgrounds, since PNG natively supports transparency.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Everything happens locally on your computer using the HTML5 Canvas API — your photo is never uploaded anywhere, so it stays completely private.
Why convert HEIC to PNG instead of JPG?
PNG is lossless and preserves transparency, so it's the better choice when you need pixel-perfect quality or a transparent background. JPG produces smaller files but discards some detail and can't hold transparency.
Will the converted PNG be larger than the original HEIC?
Often, yes. HEIC's modern compression is very efficient, while PNG's lossless compression typically produces a larger file for the same image — that's the trade-off for zero quality loss.
Does it cost money?
No. The HEIC to PNG converter is 100% free to use, with no registration or account required.
