Frequently Asked Questions About AVIF Conversion:
Answers about converting to and from AVIF.
How do I convert images to AVIF?
Add JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC or other images to the box at the top. AVIF is already chosen as the output for each file you drop here, so you only need to press Convert All. Change Quality first if you want a smaller or sharper file; it starts at 90.
How do I convert AVIF files into other formats?
Add the AVIF files, open the Output Format menu and pick the format you need, such as PNG, WebP, TIFF or JPG, then press Apply to all files and Convert All. If you only ever need JPGs, the AVIF to JPG converter sets that for you.
How much smaller is an AVIF than a JPG?
It depends on the picture and the Quality setting. In our test, a JPG photo shrank by about 72% as an AVIF at the default quality of 90, and by about 94% at quality 50. Each file in the editor shows how its size changed, since an image that is already well compressed can come out larger.
Can I make a lossless AVIF?
Not yet. A Lossless switch appears for AVIF output, but in our tests it saved the same file as quality 90, so treat AVIF here as lossy. For a pixel-exact copy, choose PNG, or WebP with Lossless turned on.
Does AVIF keep transparency?
Yes. A PNG or WebP with a clear background stays clear when saved as AVIF, because nothing is flattened for AVIF output; our test with a cutout PNG confirmed it. Going the other way, AVIF to JPG fills clear areas with white or a color you pick, while AVIF to PNG keeps them see-through.
Can I convert an animated GIF to AVIF?
Only as a still picture for now. AVIF output keeps the first frame of an animated GIF or WebP, and that file's tile shows a note saying so. To keep the motion, leave the output as GIF or WebP, which save every frame.
Can I convert AVIF to PDF?
Not on this page. The format menu lists image formats only, such as JPG, PNG, WebP, TIFF and GIF. Use the free Image to PDF tool instead, which accepts AVIF files and places them in a PDF document you can download.
Why does saving to AVIF take longer than JPG?
AVIF compresses images much harder than JPG, and that extra work takes time. In a test outside the browser, one 16-megapixel photo took about 14 seconds, and your device will differ. Files are handled one at a time, so keep the tab open until every tile shows Done.
Is this AVIF converter free and private?
Yes. There's no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limit. A worker running in this browser tab converts your images, and they are never sent to our servers. We only count basic usage, such as how long the editor was open, never file names or contents.
