Why convert HEIC to PNG?

Converting HEIC to PNG gives you a universally compatible image with lossless quality and transparency support. Unlike JPG conversion, PNG preserves sharp edges and does not introduce compression artifacts, making it ideal when you plan to edit the photo or need pixel-perfect quality for graphic design work.

HEIC vs PNG: technical comparison

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container, introduced in 2015) uses HEVC (H.265) intra-frame compression. PNG (Portable Network Graphics, introduced in 1996) uses DEFLATE (lossless) compression. HEIC supports animation, but PNG does not. Only the first frame will be preserved during conversion. HEIC browser support: Limited (Safari only on macOS/iOS). PNG browser support: Universal.

What happens to quality?

The quality impact depends on the specific settings used during conversion. PNG preserves full quality with lossless compression.

File size impact

Typical HEIC file size: A 12MP iPhone photo: ~1.5-2.5 MB. Typical PNG file size: A 12MP photo: ~15-25 MB; a 800x600 screenshot: ~200-500 KB.

Common use cases

  • Preparing iPhone photos for graphic design or compositing work
  • Converting screenshots taken on iPhone for web or documentation use
  • Creating high-quality copies of HEIC photos for archival without JPG artifacts
  • Sharing photos where lossless quality matters more than file size
Pro tip

PNG files from HEIC conversion will be significantly larger than both the original HEIC and a JPG conversion — typically 10-20 MB for a 12MP photo. If you do not need lossless quality or transparency, JPG is the more practical choice for sharing and storage.
