Convert HEIC images (iPhone photos) to PNG format instantly
or click to browse · Max 20MB
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the default image format used by iPhones and iPads since iOS 11. While HEIC is excellent for storage on Apple devices, it's not natively supported on Windows PCs, older Android phones, or many websites. Converting HEIC to PNG produces a universally compatible image with lossless quality preserved. PNG is the best choice when you need to edit your iPhone photos multiple times without quality degradation, when sharp edges and text clarity matter (like screenshots), or when you plan to use the image for design work that may need transparency support later.
Choose PNG when: you need lossless quality, the photo contains text or sharp edges (screenshots), you plan to edit the image multiple times, or you need transparency support later in design tools.
Choose JPG when: file size matters for email or social sharing, the photo is purely photographic content, or you want maximum compatibility with older systems.

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is the default photo format used by iPhones and iPads since iOS 11. It uses HEVC compression to store images at about half the file size of JPG while maintaining the same visual quality.
Choose PNG when you need lossless quality and plan to edit the image multiple times, when transparency support matters, or when you need crisp text and sharp edges in screenshots from your iPhone. Use JPG instead when file size is critical, like for email or social sharing.
Yes. PNG uses lossless compression so the converted image preserves every pixel of visual quality from the original HEIC. The file will be larger than HEIC due to lossless encoding, but quality is fully preserved.
Yes, typically 2-5 times larger. HEIC uses very efficient compression that PNG cannot match. The trade-off is universal compatibility and lossless quality. If file size matters more, convert to JPG instead.
