Why convert HEIC to PNG?
HEIC is the high-efficiency format iPhones and modern Apple devices use by default, storing photos at roughly half the size of JPG at the same quality. Many Windows apps and websites cannot open it, so converting to JPG or PNG makes it shareable everywhere. PNG is a lossless format that keeps every pixel intact and supports a full alpha (transparency) channel. Files are larger than JPG but quality never degrades.
- Move to a lossless PNG file so no further quality is lost in editing — though detail already lost in the original HEIC cannot be restored.
- Get a universally supported, lossless PNG that every browser, editor and operating system can open.

Frequently asked questions
Is the HEIC to PNG converter free?
Yes. ConvertPix is completely free with no limits on the number of conversions, no watermarks, and no account required.
Are my HEIC images uploaded to a server?
No. Conversion happens entirely inside your web browser using your own device. Your images are never uploaded, stored, or seen by anyone.
Will converting HEIC to PNG improve quality?
Converting to PNG stops any further quality loss, but it cannot recover detail already removed by the original HEIC compression. The result matches your source as closely as possible.
Does PNG support transparency?
Yes, PNG supports a transparency (alpha) channel, so transparent areas are preserved.
What is the largest file I can convert?
You can convert HEIC images up to 5 MB. Because processing is done on your device, very large images depend on your device's available memory.
