Can I convert multiple files at once?

Yes! Our batch conversion feature lets you convert multiple files simultaneously.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does PNG support all HEIC features?

PNG supports transparency and lossless quality.

Will file size increase?

Yes, PNG files are typically larger than HEIC.

What is HEIC?

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is Apple's default photo format since iOS 11. It uses HEVC (H.265) compression to save roughly 50% of storage space compared to JPEG while maintaining equivalent quality. However, it has limited compatibility on Windows and Android.

Should I use HEIC on my website?

HEIC offers excellent compression (roughly 50% smaller than JPEG) but requires iOS 11+ or macOS High Sierra+. If your audience uses modern browsers, HEIC is a great choice. For broader compatibility, consider converting to PNG as a fallback.

Does converting HEIC to PNG preserve quality?

Yes! PNG is a lossless format, so every pixel from your original HEIC image is preserved exactly during conversion. There is zero quality loss. However, if your HEIC source has already been through lossy compression, those artifacts will remain in the output.

Will transparency be preserved when converting HEIC to PNG?

Yes! Both HEIC and PNG support alpha channel transparency, so any transparent areas in your image will be preserved. This makes PNG a great choice for images that need transparent backgrounds, such as logos and UI elements.

Does converting HEIC to PNG preserve metadata (EXIF, GPS)?

Standard EXIF metadata (camera settings, GPS coordinates, timestamps) and ICC color profiles are typically preserved during conversion when both formats support them. PNG has limited support for EXIF metadata. If privacy is a concern, use a dedicated metadata remover rather than relying on format conversion to strip identifying data.

How does PNG file size compare to HEIC?

PNG is a lossless format, so file sizes will generally be larger than lossy alternatives. However, you get perfect pixel preservation in return.

Will colors shift when converting HEIC to PNG?

Color shifts can occur if the two formats handle color profiles differently. HEIC typically preserves ICC color profiles, which helps maintain accurate colors. For critical color work, test a sample image first.
