What is the AVIF Converter?

AVIF is a modern image format built on the AV1 video codec. It compresses photos much smaller than JPEG at similar quality, which is great for the web but awkward when an app or older tool will not open an .avif file. This converter fixes that: drop in an AVIF image and it re-encodes it to a format everything understands.

It decodes the AVIF in your browser and redraws it on a canvas, then exports to JPG, PNG or WebP (with BMP and GIF also offered, where your browser supports them). Because it runs locally, the image is never uploaded.

How to use the AVIF converter

  • 1. Upload an .avif image by dragging it in or browsing.
  • 2. Choose an output format - JPG, PNG or WebP.
  • 3. Click Convert, then download the converted image.

Common uses

Opening an AVIF you downloaded in an editor that does not support it yet, turning an AVIF into a JPG for an email or an older CMS, or getting a PNG out of an AVIF source. It bridges the gap while AVIF support is still spreading across software.

FAQ

What does this AVIF converter do?

It takes an AVIF image and converts it to a more widely supported format - JPG, PNG or WebP - so you can use it in tools that do not read AVIF.

Is my image uploaded?

No. The AVIF is decoded and re-encoded in your browser on a canvas, so it never leaves your device.

Why convert away from AVIF?

AVIF compresses very efficiently, but not every app, browser or service can open it yet. Converting to JPG or PNG guarantees compatibility.

Will converting to JPG keep transparency?

No. JPG has no transparency, so transparent areas become a solid background. Choose PNG or WebP if you need to keep an alpha channel.
