How to Convert AVIF Files Online — Free & Instant

Convert next-gen AVIF images to widely supported formats so they open in every browser and application.

Upload Your AVIF Images

Drag and drop AVIF files from modern web downloads or camera exports. AVIF uses AV1 compression for the best size-to-quality ratio available, but older browsers and apps cannot open them.

Pick a Compatible Format

Choose JPG for universal compatibility across every device, PNG for lossless quality with transparency, or WebP for a balance of modern compression and broad browser support. HDR tone-mapping is handled automatically.

Download Converted Images

Download your files ready to open in any browser or image editor. The converter preserves the full resolution and color gamut of your AVIF originals. Batch results are bundled as a ZIP.

Why Convert AVIF Images?

Broad Browser and App Support

AVIF is still gaining adoption and does not work in older browsers, image editors, or mobile apps. Convert AVIF to JPG or PNG for guaranteed display on every device and platform.

Edit in Standard Software

Most graphic design tools including older Photoshop versions cannot open AVIF. Convert to PNG for lossless editing or JPG for lightweight files that every editor handles natively.

Social Media Compatibility

Most social networks and messaging apps do not yet accept AVIF uploads. Convert to JPG or WebP before posting to Instagram, Facebook, X, or LinkedIn to avoid upload rejections.

Preserve HDR Content

AVIF supports HDR and wide color gamut. When converting to PNG or TIFF, tone mapping is applied to preserve as much dynamic range as possible within SDR color spaces for standard displays.

Print and Physical Media

No print service accepts AVIF files. Convert to TIFF for professional CMYK printing or to high-quality JPG for consumer photo printing at local shops and online print services.

No Software Required

Convert AVIF files directly in your browser — no Photoshop, no plugins, no downloads. Files up to 10 MB are always free, and converted files are deleted from our servers within 24 hours.

About the AVIF Format

AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a next-generation image format based on the open-source AV1 video codec, standardized in 2019 by the Alliance for Open Media. It delivers exceptional compression efficiency — typically 20-30% better than WebP and up to 50% better than JPEG at equivalent visual quality. AVIF supports both lossy and lossless compression, making it one of the most versatile modern image formats available.

AVIF is designed for the next era of web imagery, supporting features like HDR (High Dynamic Range), wide colour gamuts with 12-bit depth, and full transparency. Browser support has been growing steadily, with Chrome, Firefox, and Safari 16+ all providing native AVIF rendering. The primary trade-off is encoding speed — AVIF images take significantly longer to compress than JPEG or WebP, which can be a bottleneck for real-time image processing pipelines and high-volume workflows.
