Frequently Asked Questions

Is VisualConvert really 100% private?

Yes! You can test this by opening the conversion tool, turning off your internet connection (Wi-Fi/Ethernet), and converting your images. It works completely offline once the webpage is loaded.

Why does HEIC conversion take a few seconds initially?

HEIC files from iPhones require a specialized WebAssembly decoder (heic2any) which runs inside your browser to decompress the High Efficiency Image Format before converting to standard JPG or PNG.

Can I convert animated GIFs?

Since the standard browser Canvas API rasterizes images frame-by-frame, outputting to GIF or SVG produces high-quality static images (first frame for GIFs, rasterized wrapper for SVGs).
