Free Online PNG to HEIF Converter

Convert PNG images to HEIF (High Efficiency Image Format) with this free online tool. HEIF provides dramatically better compression than PNG while supporting transparency, making it ideal for reducing image file sizes on modern devices.

PNG vs. HEIF: Why Convert?

PNG is a lossless format widely used for web graphics and screenshots, known for its excellent transparency support. However, PNG files can be quite large. HEIF offers both lossy and lossless compression that is significantly more efficient – a HEIF file can be up to 50% smaller than an equivalent PNG while maintaining similar visual quality. HEIF is natively supported on Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac) and is gaining support on Android and Windows platforms.

How to Convert PNG to HEIF

  1. Upload your PNG file – Drag and drop or click to select your image.
  2. Click "Convert to HEIF!" – The conversion starts immediately.
  3. Download the HEIF file – Save the smaller, high-quality image to your device.

Benefits of HEIF

  • Dramatically smaller files – Up to 50% smaller than PNG with similar quality.
  • Transparency support – HEIF maintains alpha transparency from PNG images.
  • Apple native format – Works seamlessly across iOS, iPadOS, and macOS.
  • Modern features – Supports HDR, depth maps, and image sequences.
