HEIC to PNG Converter
Convert iPhone HEIC photos to PNG with transparency preserved, losslessly, in your browser. Batches of up to 10 files, no upload, no watermark. Free, no account.
What this tool does
Turn iPhone HEIC photos into PNG with every pixel intact and transparency preserved. The conversion is lossless on the PNG side and runs entirely in your browser, so the photos never leave your device. Add up to 10 at a time. Free, no account, no watermark.
Each file can be up to 50 MB.
How it works
- Add your HEIC (or HEIF) files.
- Convert. PNG is lossless, so there is no quality setting to pick.
- Download each PNG or grab them all as a ZIP.

When to use it
Graphics that need transparency
PNG keeps the alpha channel, so cutouts and overlays taken from iPhone photos keep their transparent areas instead of being flattened onto white.
Editing without further loss
PNG survives repeated saves without degrading, which makes it the safe intermediate format before editing.
Whole batches at once
Select up to 10 HEIC images and convert them in one pass instead of one by one.
Lossless output from a compressed source.
The conversion runs entirely on your device. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored, and the original HEIC files stay exactly where they are.
PNG stores every decoded pixel exactly, so re-saving the output never degrades it. Transparency is preserved.
One honest note: HEIC compresses more aggressively than PNG, so expect the PNG to be considerably larger than the original. That is the price of a perfect copy, not a bug. If you want smaller files, the HEIC to JPG converter trades some fidelity for size.
Turning photos into a single document instead? The HEIC to PDF converter builds one PDF with a page per photo.
Frequently asked questions
Is this HEIC to PNG converter free?
Yes. Free, no account, no watermark, no daily cap.
Are my photos uploaded to a server?
No. The HEIC decoding and the PNG encoding both happen inside your browser. The files never leave your computer.
JPG or PNG for iPhone photos?
JPG for sharing and uploading: it is far smaller and every service accepts it. PNG when you need transparency or plan to edit and re-save repeatedly.
Why is my PNG so much bigger than the HEIC was?
HEVC-based HEIC compresses photos very efficiently; PNG keeps every pixel losslessly and pays for it in file size. That is the expected trade, not a bug.
Does the PNG keep the original's metadata?
No. The converted PNG comes out clean, without the original's EXIF data. That is a side effect of how browser-based conversion works, and for most people it is the outcome they wanted anyway.
How many files can I convert at once?
Up to 10 HEIC files per batch, each up to 50 MB. Run the tool again for more.
