How do I convert HEIC to PNG with full transparency preserved?

HEIC images with alpha channels (like iOS stickers or portrait cutouts) convert seamlessly to transparent PNGs. PDF Legacy preserves alpha transparency layers automatically.

Can I batch convert multiple HEIC photos to PNG at once?

Yes! Upload multiple HEIC or HEIF photos at once. PDF Legacy converts them all in parallel inside your browser and lets you download them individually or as a single zip archive.

Is converting HEIC to PNG lossless?

Yes, PNG uses lossless compression. Unlike lossy formats, PNG retains 100% of the pixel data, colors, and sharp edges from your original HEIC photo.

How do I open iPhone HEIC photos on Windows or Android?

Windows and Android often cannot open HEIC natively. Converting your iPhone HEIC photos to PNG makes them instantly viewable and editable on any OS or graphics software.

Are my personal HEIC photos uploaded to any server?

No. Conversion is performed 100% locally in your web browser using WebAssembly. Your photos are never stored or transmitted to external servers.
