HEIC to PNG Converter

Drop your HEIC files and save them as PNG in seconds. Nothing is uploaded.

HEIC: The format iPhones save photos in since iOS 11. Small files and great quality, but many websites, Windows apps and older programs can't open it.

PNG: Lossless and supports transparency. Best for screenshots, logos and graphics, but photo files get big.

PNG keeps every pixel exactly, which is useful if you want to edit the photo further. The files are bigger than JPG.

The images are converted inside your browser with the canvas built into every modern browser. Your photos never leave your device, and the converted files contain no location or camera data.

HEIC decoding: libheif (LGPL-3.0), loaded only if your browser can't read HEIC itself.

How it works

  1. Drop your images Or tap to choose. You can pick many at once.
  2. Pick the options Quality, target size or new size, depending on the tool.
  3. Save Click Convert, then save each file or all at once.

FAQ

Are my photos uploaded?

No. Everything runs in your browser. Nothing is sent to our server.

Is it free?

Yes. No account, no watermark, no limit on the number of files.

What happens to the photo's metadata?

The converted file is drawn fresh, so EXIF data like GPS location and camera model is removed. The orientation is applied to the pixels, so the photo stays upright.
