Convert HEIC to PNG

Convert HEIC to PNG with no re-compression loss — for editing material or screenshots where you want to keep transparency.

Settings

How to use

  1. 1

    Add images

    Drag and drop into the box or click to choose. You can add several at once.

  2. 2

    Choose format and quality

    Pick the output format and a quality from 1 to 100. Higher means better quality and a larger file.

  3. 3

    Convert and save

    Press Run. Images are processed one by one and can be saved as they finish, or all together as a ZIP.

When to choose PNG

PNG is lossless, so conversion loses no quality. In exchange the file is 5–10 times larger than the HEIC. PNG suits material you will edit further and screenshots containing text.

If you are sharing or submitting photos and care about size, choose JPG or WebP instead. Turning a photo into PNG only makes it larger without any visible benefit.

Frequently asked questions

Is transparency kept?

Yes. An alpha channel in the HEIC is written to the PNG as-is.

Why is the file so much larger?

PNG is lossless, and lossless compression does little for photos with many colours. Choose JPG or WebP for smaller files.

Can I convert iPhone screenshots?

iPhone screenshots are already saved as PNG, so no conversion is needed. HEIC files exported from the Photos app can be converted.

How many files at once?

No limit. They are processed in turn and can be saved as they finish.

Help us improve the service

If a conversion fails, sending us the circumstances helps us track down the cause. Knowing which devices and formats fail most often, and how long processing takes, lets us revise the supported formats and fix the bugs behind them. If you don't mind, leaving this on is a real help.

What is sent

The tool you used and the settings you chose (output format, quality, etc.), your device specs (GPU, memory, core count), the input format with a rough size, how many files succeeded or failed and how long it took, and the error type and details when something fails.

What is never sent

The files themselves, file names, text, subtitles or prompts you add to a video, and IP addresses. The data goes only to this site's own server, never to a third-party service.
