Why convert HEIC to PNG?

Same reason as JPG, but when the image is a screenshot or contains text and you want it to stay sharp.

What is HEIC?

HEIC is what an iPhone has been saving photos as since iOS 11. It uses the HEVC video codec to squeeze a picture into roughly half the size of an equivalent JPG, and it can hold depth maps, live photos and transparency. Its problem is everything outside Apple: Windows needs an add-on, many web forms reject it outright, and older software has never heard of it.

What is PNG?

PNG was created as a free replacement for GIF and compresses without throwing anything away. Lettering stays razor sharp, transparency works properly, and the same image survives being saved a hundred times. The trade is size: a photograph in PNG can be five times a JPG.

What changes when you convert HEIC to PNG?

Quality is preserved, but the file gets bigger - HEIC is a far more efficient format than PNG. That is the price of a picture that opens everywhere without an add-on.

How long does it take?

Images finish almost instantly. Conversion runs on our server rather than in your browser, so the only real wait is the upload itself.

What happens to my files?

Your file is uploaded to our server because the conversion runs there. A cleanup task runs every hour and deletes anything older than an hour, so nothing you upload survives more than about two hours. We do not open your files, we do not keep copies, and no account is needed to use the converter.
