Frequently asked questions

Is it really free?

Yes, completely free, no sign-up, no software, no watermarks.

Are my photos uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything happens in your browser; your files never leave your device.

Why is the PNG so much bigger than the HEIC?

PNG is lossless — it keeps all detail without compression, so photos become large files. This is expected. For smaller files, choose JPG or WebP.

Does PNG keep better quality than JPG?

PNG is lossless, so it preserves full detail with no compression artifacts. JPG is smaller but discards some detail. For maximum quality, PNG is better; for smaller files, JPG.

Is the location data kept?

No. Camera and location (EXIF) data is removed during conversion, helping protect your privacy.

Why convert HEIC to PNG?

PNG is a lossless image format, which means it preserves every pixel of detail without compression artifacts. This makes PNG a strong choice when image quality matters most — editing, archiving, screenshots, graphics, or images you plan to work with further. Unlike HEIC, PNG is supported almost everywhere: browsers, design tools, document editors, and operating systems all handle PNG without extra software.

Lossless quality, kept intact

Because PNG is lossless, your converted image keeps full detail with no quality degradation from compression. This is different from formats like JPG, which trade some detail for smaller files. If you want the cleanest possible version of your photo — with sharp edges and no compression noise — PNG is the format to choose.

A note on file size

PNG files are usually larger than HEIC, and for photographs they can be much larger — sometimes several times the original size. This is normal: PNG keeps everything without throwing detail away, so photos with lots of color and texture produce big files. If small file size matters more than perfect detail, HEIC to JPG or HEIC to WebP may suit you better. For graphics, logos, or images that need transparency, PNG is ideal.

Convert in your browser — nothing leaves your device

This tool converts HEIC to PNG entirely in your browser. Your files are never uploaded — all processing happens locally on your device, so your photos stay completely private. It works on iPhone, iPad, Android, and desktop.

Free, no sign-up, no watermarks

No account, no installation, no watermarks. Select your HEIC files, choose PNG, and convert — one photo or a whole batch. To gather your HEIC photos into a single document instead, try HEIC to PDF.

Your privacy is protected

Location and camera information (EXIF metadata) stored in the original photo is not carried over to the PNG, so your converted files won't reveal where or when a photo was taken.
