How to use it
Drop your HEIC photos here to turn them into PNGs with no quality lost. Great for photos you plan to edit. Your photos stay on your device.
PNG keeps every detail of your photo exactly as it is. That makes it the best pick when you’re going to edit the picture, add it to a design, or save it again and again.
Drop your photos onto the box above, or click to pick them, then click Convert. There’s no quality setting here, because nothing is lost.
One catch: PNG files are big. A PNG made from a phone photo is often 5 to 10 times larger than the original. If you just want to share or email the photo, HEIC to JPG gives you a much smaller file.
If your image has a see-through background, PNG keeps it see-through.
FAQ
Why is the PNG so much bigger?
PNG keeps every detail, while HEIC is built to squeeze photos small. A file 5 to 10 times bigger is normal. Use JPG if size matters more.
Should I pick PNG or JPG for phone photos?
JPG, most of the time. PNG is best for screenshots, logos, and images you’ll keep editing.
Can anyone else see my photos?
No. They’re converted on your device and never sent anywhere.
How it worksFor the curious
PNG is a lossless format: once the HEIC is decoded, every pixel is written out exactly, with nothing discarded. Its compression works well on flat colour and sharp edges but poorly on the fine sensor noise in camera photos, which is why photo PNGs are so large.
Decoding uses a WebAssembly build of libheif, downloaded only when you convert something. The PNG is then encoded on a canvas in this page. PNG carries an alpha channel, so transparency in the source survives instead of being flattened onto white.
The only quality loss happened when your phone first saved the photo as HEIC, which is a lossy format. This conversion keeps everything that survived that.
