  • Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
  • Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported.
  • HEIF container: libheif (LGPL); licences, source and relink files

What happens when you convert HEIC to PNG?

Multiple source images

Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.

Animation-capable destination

Still image output. Animated files use only the first frame; animation is not preserved.

HDR display encoding

Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.

Is HEIC → PNG right for you?

Good choice when

  • PNG fits your delivery use: Screenshots & transparent graphics.
  • You can choose the source image or part needed for delivery.
  • Your destination supports the required animation variant.
  • You need HDR-capable delivery and can validate its encoding and colour signalling.

Probably not when

  • You require a complete collection, page set or multipart round trip.
  • You require animation, HDR or auxiliary alpha preservation; this native still-image path does not provide it.
  • You require guaranteed scene-linear values or HDR appearance.
  • You assume format-level alpha support guarantees matching transparent edges.

Animation-capable destination
Still image output. Animated files use only the first frame; animation is not preserved.
HDR display encoding

Lossless sample storage
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.
Sample precision & colour
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.
Metadata & colour
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.
Compression
HEIC: Lossy & lossless → PNG: Lossless HEIC: HEIC commonly uses lossy HEVC; HEVC also has lossless coding tools. Actual quality, bit depth and chroma depend on the encoded profile and settings, not on the .heic extension. PNG: PNG compression is lossless. Palette conversion, resizing or reducing bit depth before encoding can still discard information. Animation is the APNG extension included in the third edition.
Transparency
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported.
Animation
Still image output. Animated files use only the first frame; animation is not preserved.
Colour depth
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported.
HDR
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported. Availability is checked on this device using native WebCodecs.
Multiple images
Primary SDR still image only. sRGB/Display P3 and supported 8/10-bit HEVC render to 8-bit sRGB. HDR, auxiliary alpha and other HEIF codecs are rejected. Thumbnails, depth, gain maps and Live Photo motion are not exported.
Dimensions
Rendered image dimensions are retained within the converter limits; this tool does not offer resizing. Orientation handling depends on the source decoder.
Metadata
Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
