What to know about HEIC to TGA conversion
- HEIC photos from iPhone and Android are decoded locally; your photos are never uploaded to a server.
- TGA 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: TGA supports an alpha channel just like HEIC.
- TGA is best for game textures and 3D rendering pipelines, and opens in game engines, 3D software and image editors.

Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to convert HEIC to TGA 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.
