Convert HEIC to PNG by dropping your iPhone photo into Imgvert, waiting for local browser conversion through libheif, and downloading the finished PNG file. The converter is free, supports batch jobs, and is designed for private local processing: no upload, runs in your browser. Use it when you need a PNG copy for editing, documents, Windows, Android, or a workflow that should avoid JPG compression.
How to convert HEIC to PNG
- Drop your HEIC file on the upload area, or choose it from your device.
- Add more iPhone photos if you want a batch conversion.
- Conversion runs locally in your browser through libheif. The file is decoded and written as PNG without an upload to Imgvert. The output keeps the source image's pixel dimensions.
- Download the PNG file, or download the full batch when every item is ready.
About the HEIC format
HEIC is common on iPhone because it stores photos efficiently. It is a good capture and storage format, but it is not accepted everywhere. Windows and Android support can vary by app, and many upload forms still prefer common outputs such as PNG or JPG.
PNG is a strong output when you need a broadly supported raster file and want to avoid another lossy JPG save. It is useful for screenshots, graphics, images with text, document workflows, and editing tools that expect PNG. For ordinary camera photos where smaller file size matters more than lossless-style output, HEIC to JPG may be the better choice.
PNG files can be larger than HEIC, especially for iPhone photos with lots of detail. That is normal. The conversion is about compatibility and editing support, not making every image smaller.
If you are not sure which photo you selected, open it first in the HEIC viewer. Viewing before conversion is useful when filenames look similar or when your device does not show HEIC thumbnails.
Because the work happens in the browser, speed depends on your device and the size of the images. Large iPhone photos and big batches can take longer. If a batch feels too heavy, split it into smaller groups and download each group before starting the next one.

Limits and privacy
- Files are processed locally in this browser; they are not uploaded to Imgvert.
- This flow renders a still image and does not guarantee preservation of EXIF, ICC, HDR, depth, auxiliary images, animation, or multi-page data.
- PNG output can be larger than a lossy photo format; this converter does not promise a smaller file.
