How it works
- Add the HEIC file. Drop the photo from your iPhone or Mac into the box, or tap to browse. The decoder loads once and runs entirely in the browser tab.
- Convert. PNG is lossless, so there is no quality setting to think about — one click starts the conversion.
- Save the PNG. Check the preview and the resulting file size, then download the .png or continue in the editor.
Sometimes JPG is not what you want: design tools, print workflows and some upload forms expect PNG, and if you plan to keep editing a photo, a lossless intermediate format avoids stacking compression artifacts on every save. This tool decodes your HEIC photo in the browser and writes a pixel-exact PNG.
Be aware of the trade-off: PNG files are large. That is the price of lossless storage and it is normal — if the result is too big for your use case, convert to JPG or run the result through the image compressor to hit an exact size in KB.
Like every everyimg tool, this runs without any upload: the libheif decoder is delivered as WebAssembly and your photo never leaves the device.
Frequently asked questions
When should I pick PNG instead of JPG for an iPhone photo?
Pick PNG when the file will be edited again (no further quality loss per save), when a tool specifically demands PNG, or for screenshots and graphics with text. For sharing ordinary photos, JPG is usually the better choice because it is much smaller.
Why is the PNG so much bigger than my HEIC?
That is expected. HEIC uses strong lossy video-codec compression; PNG stores every pixel losslessly. A 2 MB HEIC photo can easily become a 20 MB PNG. If size matters, use the HEIC to JPG converter or the compressor instead.
Is the conversion really lossless?
The PNG contains exactly the pixels the HEIC decoder produced — nothing is re-compressed or resized. The loss that already happened when the iPhone saved the HEIC cannot be undone, but no new loss is added.
Do my photos stay private?
Yes. Decoding and PNG encoding both happen in your browser via WebAssembly. Nothing is transmitted, logged or stored on a server, and the tool works offline once the page has loaded.
