Convert HEIC to PNG, from chat
Ask ChatGPT or Claude to turn a folder of iPhone photos on your Mac or Windows PC into lossless PNGs. One message, every file, no converter websites and no dragging files around.
Works in ChatGPT and Claude, on the web and on your phone. See how it works in ChatGPT or Claude.
PNG is the standard. HEIC isn't.
Designers, developers, and content creators need PNG for its lossless quality and transparency support. But your iPhone saves everything as HEIC. Online converters make you upload and download photos one at a time, and many cap how many files you can convert.
Just describe what you need. Done.
No settings to configure. No apps to learn. Just describe what you want in ChatGPT or Claude.
