Why convert HEIC to PNG?
Need a lossless copy of an iPhone photo, or one with transparency preserved? Converting HEIC to PNG gives you a pixel-perfect image that every editor and operating system accepts. PNG files are larger than JPG, so pick this when quality matters more than size.
HEIC vs PNG at a glance
