How to convert your images
Select HEIC or HEIF photos and press Convert all. The local decoder applies container orientation; review portraits before downloading.
When to use this conversion
Useful for importing iPhone photos into PNG-compatible editors without another lossy compression stage. For emailing photographs, HEIC to JPG is often more practical.
Format differences
HEIC uses the HEIF container with efficient compression. PNG stores decoded pixels losslessly, but cannot restore information lost when the HEIC photo was created.
Quality, transparency and size
PNG can be much larger than HEIC. Only the primary image is exported, not Live Photos, depth maps or every image in the container. HDR and color profiles are not guaranteed to survive.
