Convert iPhone HEIC photos to lossless PNG
Processed in your browser. Nothing is uploaded. Updated on 24 Oct 2026.PNG keeps every pixel of the decoded HEIC exactly as it was, so nothing is thrown away a second time. Choose it when the photo is a screenshot, a document or artwork you will edit further, or when a tool later in your workflow refuses lossy files. The cost is size: a PNG of an iPhone photo is commonly five to ten times bigger than the JPG. For a form with a size limit, convert to JPG instead.
Choose the HEIC photos from your iPhone; PNG is already selected under Convert to.
No Quality slider is shown, as PNG keeps every decoded pixel; expect files five to ten times the size of a JPG.
Press Convert to PNG and wait for each photo's row to show Done.
Press Download to save the PNGs, or switch to JPG first if your form has a size limit.
HEIC to JPG converts the HEIC and HEIF photos an iPhone or iPad saves into ordinary JPG files that open anywhere, twenty at a time, without sending a single photo to a server. Drop the files, press Convert, and download them one by one or all together.
People use it when photos AirDropped or copied from an iPhone will not open on a Windows PC, when a job portal, school form or insurance claim only accepts JPG, and when a WhatsApp or email attachment shows up as a blank icon on the other side. Choose PNG instead of JPG when you need a lossless copy of a screenshot or a document scan.
The first time you convert, the browser loads a small HEIC decoder, about 1 MB, which is then cached so later visits start instantly. Decoding happens on your device, so it works offline and your photos stay private. The limits are 20 files per batch and 50 MB per file.
The rest of the article, and all 7 questions about HEIC to JPG, are on the HEIC to JPG page.
Open this page in any browser on your PC, drop the HEIC files in, and press Convert. Windows cannot open HEIC without a paid codec, but the browser decodes it here on your device and gives you a JPG that opens in Photos, Paint or any other program.
No. The HEIC decoder runs inside your browser, so the photos never leave your phone or computer and there is no server copy to worry about. Once the decoder has loaded, conversion works offline, which is useful on hotel wifi or a weak mobile connection. Nothing is stored after you close the tab.
JPG is lossy, so the default quality of 90 keeps the photo visually identical while making it smaller. Lower the slider if you need a smaller file for an upload form and can accept softer detail. Choose PNG instead if you need a lossless copy, at the cost of a much larger file.
Up to 20 files per batch and 50 MB per file. Live Photos convert to a single still image, since the short video alongside them is a separate file on the phone. If a file is not really a HEIC or is damaged, the tool says so and carries on with the other files.
