How do I convert HEIF to PNG?

Upload your HEIF file above. It is converted to PNG automatically (change the output format or quality in the Settings tab if you need to), then click Download. There is nothing to install.

Does converting HEIF to PNG lose quality?

No new loss is added: PNG stores the picture exactly as it is. Detail that HEIF compression removed earlier can’t be restored.

HEIF or PNG: which should I use?

Use HEIF for storing high-quality photos in less space on phones and cameras. Use PNG for screenshots, logos, text graphics and cut-outs. Keep in mind the main drawback of PNG: large files for photographs.

HEIF is the open standard behind HEIC. Samsung phones and several Canon, Sony and Fujifilm cameras can save HEIF photos, which are compact but not yet widely accepted.

Is the HEIF to PNG converter free?

Yes. Convert, preview and download a single result without creating an account. Premium adds batch conversion (many files into one ZIP) and larger uploads.

Why convert HEIF to PNG?

PNG is supported far more widely than HEIF, so the file is easier to open, share and upload.
PNG is lossless, so the converted image loses no further detail when you edit and save it again.
PNG is made for screenshots, logos, text graphics and cut-outs.

What to expect when converting HEIF to PNG

Converting can’t bring back detail that HEIF compression already removed: the PNG is an exact copy of the image as it is, usually in a bigger file.
High-dynamic-range and wide-colour detail is converted to standard 8-bit colour.
