Pro Tip: Why PNG?

PNG is the standard for lossless images on the web. Unlike JPG, PNG does not degrade quality with repeated saves and supports transparent backgrounds, making it ideal for graphics and high-fidelity photos.

Engineering Philosophy

Lossless Precision.
Total Transparency.

HEIC is great for efficiency, but PNG is the king of quality and transparency. At RiseConvert, we've engineered a converter that respects the pixel-perfect nature of PNG.

Our **Alpha-Channel Preservation** technology ensures that if your original image has any transparency data or deep color profiles, it is faithfully translated to the PNG output without artifacts. We map the 10-bit HEIC color depth into the highest quality PNG standard available.

Powered by a **Privacy-First Architecture**, your photos are processed in ephemeral containers that vanish instantly. We provide professional-grade conversion without compromising your data security.

What is HEIC and Why Convert to PNG?

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is Apple's modern standard for photos, offering great quality at small sizes. However, it lacks broad support on non-Apple devices.

PNG (Portable Network Graphics), on the other hand, is a universally supported format known for its **lossless compression**. This means when you convert HEIC to PNG, you get a pixel-perfect representation of your original photo without the "compression artifacts" common in JPGs.

RiseConvert uses advanced algorithms to transcode your HEIC files to PNG, preserving every detail, color nuance, and any transparency information present in the original file.

Knowledge Base

HEIC / HEIF

High Efficiency Image File Format. Adopted by Apple to save space without losing quality.

PNG

Portable Network Graphics. A raster-graphics file-format that supports lossless data compression.

Lossless Compression

A class of data compression algorithms that allows the original data to be perfectly reconstructed.

Alpha Channel

A color component that represents the degree of transparency (or opacity) of a color.

Troubleshooting Tips

File Size Warning

PNG files are significantly larger than HEIC or JPG because they preserve all details. This is normal for lossless formats.

Best for Editing

Convert to PNG if you plan to edit the photos in software like Photoshop, as it maintains the highest quality.

Upload your HEIC files to our tool, and we will convert them to PNG format. You can then download and use them on any device or software that supports PNG.
Is converting HEIC to PNG free?
Yes, it's completely free. You can convert multiple files without any hidden costs.
Why is the PNG file size larger than HEIC?
HEIC uses high-efficiency compression, while PNG is a lossless format. PNG preserves all image data without compression artifacts, which results in larger file sizes but better quality for editing.
Does this tool preserve transparency?
Yes! If your HEIC file contains transparency (alpha channel), our converter will preserve it in the resulting PNG file.
