FAQ

What happens during HEIC to PNG conversion?

The converter decodes the HEIC image and stores the result as PNG for better compatibility with editing tools.

Are uploaded files kept permanently?

No. The planned pipeline keeps files for a short retention window and serves downloads through expiring links.

Can quality or formatting change?

Yes. Each converter page calls out what is preserved, what may be lost, and which settings matter before upload.
