Select HEIC or HEIF still images
Add a single photo or a batch within the displayed limits. The converter checks the file contents before loading the decoder.
Image Tools
Create PNG copies of your HEIC or HEIF still photos inside your browser. PNG preserves the decoded pixels without another lossy encoding step and retains supported transparency.
Choose still HEIC or HEIF photos. Convert a batch locally, review the results, and download individually or as a ZIP.
Single still photos only. Image sequences and collections with multiple independent images are rejected. The HEIC decoder applies supported image rotation and mirroring; review the preview before downloading.
Outputs are standard 8-bit images. Camera metadata, GPS tags, depth data, HDR information and Live Photo motion are not copied. Keep your originals. Converted files are limited to 200 MB in total per batch; download and clear results before processing more.
The decoder is downloaded from this site on first conversion. Your photos stay on your device. Decoder license and source information.
Local processing
The decoder is downloaded from this site on first conversion and runs on your device. Your chosen photos, previews and PNG results are not uploaded to BrowserPine for processing or storage.

Add a single photo or a batch within the displayed limits. The converter checks the file contents before loading the decoder.
Convert each photo sequentially. PNG uses lossless encoding, so there is no JPEG-style quality slider and no background fill.
Review the preview, dimensions and PNG file size. Save individual images or download all successful results as a ZIP.
PNG is useful when an editor or workflow requires it, when decoded transparency must remain transparent, or when you want to avoid adding JPEG compression artifacts during conversion.
For ordinary photo sharing or a form with a small size limit, JPG is often a more practical choice. You can use the related HEIC to JPG converter and choose a quality setting instead.
The PNG stores the standard 8-bit pixels produced by the HEIC decoder without another lossy encoding step. It cannot recover detail lost when the original HEIC was created, and it does not preserve the original HDR color information.
Supported transparency remains transparent. Converting to PNG does not remove an opaque background. Camera metadata, GPS tags, depth data and Live Photo motion are not copied to the result.
HEIC is efficient at compressing photographs. A PNG of the same visible image can be substantially larger, even though its dimensions have not increased. A larger file is not automatically a sign of better image quality.
The input queue allows 20 files, 25 MB per file and 100 MB total, with a 40-megapixel and 16,384-pixel-per-side limit. Generated outputs have a separate 200 MB total limit. Download completed files and clear the queue before processing another large batch.
Common questions
Yes. Your browser downloads the decoder and processes your selected photos locally. No photo-processing upload or account is required.
The converter retains the transparency exposed by the decoder. Opaque backgrounds remain opaque; this is not a background-removal tool.
No. PNG avoids another lossy encoding step for decoded pixels, but original HDR data, camera metadata, GPS information and depth data are not retained. Keep your original HEIC photos.
PNG encoding is lossless. A JPEG-style quality percentage would not control the PNG output meaningfully, so the converter does not show one.
Yes. After conversion, choose Download all as ZIP. Only successfully converted images are included, and individual downloads remain available.
No. It supports single still images. Timed sequences and collections with multiple independent images are rejected, and Live Photo motion is not exported.
