AVIF to PNG
Open an AVIF anywhere, transparency intact — never uploaded.
How it works
Three steps, and nothing leaves your device.
-
1
Drop the AVIF in
It is decoded in the page; nothing is sent anywhere.
-
2
It is written as PNG
Lossless, and the alpha channel is carried across.
-
3
Download the PNG
Opens in anything, including old software.
PNG or JPG for an AVIF
- Choose PNG when the image has transparency. AVIF has a full alpha channel and so does PNG, so a cut-out or a logo comes across intact. AVIF to JPG would fill that transparency with white.
- Choose PNG when you are going to edit. AVIF is lossy; PNG is not. Converting gives you a file that will not degrade further no matter how often you save it.
- Expect a much larger file. AVIF is the most efficient format here and PNG is among the least. Growth of several times over is normal, and unavoidable — that is what lossless costs.
- PNG cannot repair the AVIF. Whatever the AVIF discarded is gone; the PNG preserves the result exactly as it is. Converting prevents further loss rather than undoing what happened.
Frequently asked questions
PNG or JPG?
PNG if the image has transparency or you plan to edit it. JPG if you just need a small file to send.
Is transparency kept?
Yes. Both formats have a full alpha channel.
Why is the PNG so much bigger?
AVIF compresses extremely efficiently and PNG is lossless. Several times larger is normal.
Is my image uploaded?
No. It is converted in your browser.
