About HEIC to PNG Converter
PNG is the format most designers, developers, and editors reach for when a photo needs to keep every pixel intact. Unlike JPG — which re-compresses the image every time it is saved — PNG is fully lossless, so a HEIC file decoded once and exported as PNG becomes the pristine master copy you can crop, retouch, or export to other formats without accumulating compression damage.
Converting iPhone screenshots to PNG is particularly useful because screenshots often contain sharp text, UI elements, and flat colors where JPG artifacts are very visible. PNG also honors the alpha channel, so if you are exporting a HEIC capture that already has transparency (for example, a screenshot of a floating window), that transparency is carried through to the final PNG instead of being flattened onto a white background.
FormatFuse decodes HEIC in the browser with WebAssembly and writes PNG directly — no intermediate JPG step, no re-encoding, no quality loss. Drop in a single file or an entire AirDrop export of screenshots and iPhone photos, and you get clean PNGs ready to import into Figma, Photoshop, Affinity, Sketch, or your asset pipeline. Nothing is uploaded, so sensitive design mocks and personal captures stay on your device.

HEIC to PNG — Frequently Asked Questions
Is HEIC to PNG truly lossless?
Yes. PNG uses lossless compression, so after the HEIC file is decoded the pixels are written to PNG with no quality degradation. The output is a pristine master copy — ideal if you plan to edit further or export to other formats later.
Does this preserve transparency from HEIC files?
Some HEIC files, particularly newer iPhone screenshots, carry an alpha channel. PNG supports full alpha transparency, so any transparent regions in the source HEIC are preserved in the PNG output instead of being filled with white.
Why choose PNG over JPG for iPhone screenshots?
Screenshots contain sharp text, UI chrome, and solid color fills where JPG compression produces visible halos and blocking. PNG keeps those edges crisp and is what design tools like Figma, Photoshop, and Sketch expect for asset imports.
Will PNG files be larger than my original HEIC?
Yes. HEIC is highly compressed, so a PNG of the same image is typically three to six times larger. That is the cost of lossless quality — you trade disk space for a master file that can be edited without further degradation.
Can I batch convert HEIC screenshots and photos together?
Absolutely. Drop an entire folder of .heic files from an AirDrop export or iCloud download. They are all converted locally in parallel and can be downloaded individually or as a single ZIP.
