What changes
PNG is lossless, so nothing else is lost. What it can’t do is bring back the detail HEIF already discarded.
The file gets larger: PNG needs more space for the same content.
PNG supports transparency and HEIF doesn’t, so there’s nothing transparent to lose: the background is already solid. What you gain is the option to remove the background later, which a HEIF doesn’t allow.
Your browser may not be able to open HEIF files, but the converter reads the file itself, so it can still convert it.
When it’s worth it
Choose PNG for: Logos, screenshots, and graphics. Keeps every pixel and supports transparent backgrounds.
Stay with HEIF for: Modern cameras and mobile photo libraries.

Questions
Does converting HEIF to PNG lose quality?
Nothing more is lost, but the detail HEIF already discarded doesn’t come back.
What is the PNG format?
Lossless image format from 1995, standardized as ISO/IEC 15948. It compresses with Deflate and supports an alpha channel and 8 or 16 bits per channel, which is why it’s the default for screenshots, logos and anything that has to stay sharp.
What is the HEIF format?
The still image container standardized as ISO/IEC 23008-10, which isn’t a codec in itself: the images inside can be coded with HEVC, AV1 or JPEG. Apple uses it for HEIC, and it also supports animations, depth maps and alpha.
Are the files uploaded?
No. The file is opened in this tab, converted here and saved from here. There’s no account and no watermark.
How many files can be converted at once?
Up to 200 per batch and about 2 GB per file, within the memory this device has available.
