What to know about HEIC to PSD conversion
- HEIC photos from iPhone and Android are decoded locally; your photos are never uploaded to a server.
- PSD is lossless: it stores the decoded image exactly, which usually makes files larger than the original HEIC, but prevents further quality loss when you edit again.
- Transparency is preserved: PSD supports an alpha channel just like HEIC.
- PSD is best for layered Photoshop projects, and opens in Photoshop, GIMP, Affinity Photo and Photopea.

Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to convert HEIC to PSD here?
Yes. Your files are processed entirely on your own device by WebAssembly code running in the browser. They are never uploaded, so nobody else can see them, and the converter keeps working even if your connection drops after the page loads.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no server-side limit. The only limit is the memory available to your browser, typically 1.5–4 GB on desktop computers.
Can I convert several HEIC files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted in parallel according to your device's CPU cores, and you can apply the same settings to all of them.
