About PNG
PNG was made in 1996 as a free replacement for GIF. Its compression is lossless, so every pixel comes back exactly as it was saved. That's why screenshots, logos and interface graphics are so often PNG files.
A PNG can hold millions of colors at up to 16 bits per channel, with smooth transparency. APNG, a later extension, adds animation. Filepeek plays it, and you can pause it, step through it one frame at a time and save any frame.
Apps for iPhone and iPad ship their images as an Apple variant of PNG that no browser opens. Filepeek turns them back into regular PNG, so those open here too.

Opens in every browser
Every browser shows PNG by itself. Filepeek adds the details, the zoom and frame steps for APNG, and also opens the Apple PNGs from iPhone apps, which browsers can't.

Questions
Does it show transparency?
Yes. See through parts show the dark background behind the image, and the details say Transparency when the file has an alpha channel.
Can it open APNG files?
Yes. Filepeek plays them the way browsers do. Pause on any frame, step back and forth one frame at a time, or play at half or double speed. The details list the number of frames and how long one loop takes.
Why won't PNGs from an iPhone app open anywhere?
Xcode packs app images into an Apple variant of PNG that browsers and most apps reject. Filepeek reads that variant and shows the image.
Is my image uploaded?
No. It opens inside your browser. Nothing is sent to a server.
