How to convert HEIC to PNG

Choose your photos, let them convert, and download the results. No software to install or settings to adjust.

From HEIC to PNG in three steps

01

Choose your HEIC files

Select one photo or up to 5 HEIC or HEIF files. Each file can be up to 10 MiB and 40 megapixels.

02

Let them convert automatically

Conversion starts as soon as you choose your files. Each finished result shows its PNG size and pixel dimensions.

03

Download your PNGs

Use the PNG button beside each completed file to save it. When two or more are ready, save them together as a ZIP. Original filenames are kept with a .png extension. If names repeat, a number is added to keep each download distinct.

Batch convert HEIC to PNG

Have several photos for a school assignment or a client handoff? Convert up to 5 at a time and download the completed PNGs together. If one photo fails, download the successful results first. Once conversion stops, check the failed file’s error before retrying; files over the size or pixel limits need a different approach.

For more than 5 photos, download the current batch before clicking Clear and choosing the next one.

Convert iPhone photos on Windows, Mac, or iPhone

01

Windows 11

Click Choose images and select up to 5 photos from your computer in the file picker. Conversion starts automatically. Use the PNG button beside each completed file, or download two or more results as a ZIP. You can select a HEIC here even if your Windows photo viewer cannot open it.

02

Mac: use this converter or Preview

For browser conversion, choose up to 5 HEIC files saved on your Mac, then download the finished PNGs individually or as a ZIP.

To use your Mac’s built-in Preview app, open a HEIC photo, choose File > Export, select PNG from the Format menu, and save. For batch conversion, open the photos in one Preview window and select them in the sidebar before exporting. Follow Apple’s guide to converting image files in Preview for the full steps.

03

iPhone

Choose a .heic or .heif file saved in Files. If the photo picker gives you a JPG, select the original HEIC from Files instead. After downloading, find the PNG in your browser’s downloads; open a ZIP in Files to unpack the photos.

Need PNG, or would JPG work too?

If a website or editor asks for PNG, use the files you download here. For photo uploads that also accept JPG, the HEIC to JPG converter may give you a smaller file. Check the destination’s file size limit before submitting.

HEIC to PNG FAQs

Is this HEIC to PNG converter free?

Yes. Convert and download for free, with no signup or added watermark. You can select up to 5 files per batch, each up to 10 MiB and 40 megapixels.

Can I convert HEIC to PNG without uploading my photos?

Yes. Your selected photos are converted on your device, in your browser. They are not uploaded to a server. You need an internet connection to load the website and conversion code.

Does converting HEIC to PNG lose quality?

The converter keeps the decoded photo’s pixel dimensions without resizing, and PNG uses lossless compression. Colors and HDR detail may look different after conversion, so check the downloaded photo if those matter to your work.

Why is my PNG bigger than the HEIC file?

HEIC stores photos more compactly. PNG files are often larger, even at the same pixel dimensions. A bigger file does not mean more detail. If your upload has a size limit and accepts JPG, consider JPG instead.

Why is my HEIC to PNG conversion not working?

Check the error next to the file. If it exceeds 10 MiB or 40 megapixels, retrying the same file will not help; use a smaller source image or another converter that supports it. If a batch partly fails, download the successful PNGs first. Once conversion stops, retry the failed photo or clear the queue and try it on its own. If other apps cannot open it either, try downloading or transferring the original again. A HEIF variant this converter does not support may need another tool.

Does the PNG keep my photo’s date, camera details, or location?

No. The converter does not copy the original EXIF metadata, including capture date, camera details, and GPS coordinates. Keep the original HEIC if you need that information.

Will converting to PNG make the background transparent?

No. The photo’s background stays in place. PNG supports transparency, but removing a background requires a separate editing step.

Can I rename a HEIC file to PNG instead?

No. Changing the extension does not change the image format. This tool converts the photo data into an actual PNG file.
