AVIF to PNG

Choose images from your device or drop them onto the converter. You can choose one image, a batch of up to 200 images, or a ZIP containing them. Each image can be up to 50 MB. Press Convert to PNG, then download the results individually or together in one ZIP. Folders inside your ZIP are kept, and unrelated files are left out with a note. The original images stay on your device. The result has the same base name with the new extension, so you can match it to the original.

What is an .avif file?

AVIF means AV1 Image File Format, from the Alliance for Open Media. It stores photos and graphics in small files, which is why websites use it. Images saved from a browser can therefore end in .avif. The AVIF specification describes the format. Converting changes the format without enlarging the picture or adding detail. Keep the original if you may need its color information or animation later.

Why save an AVIF as PNG?

No. PNG is lossless, so the PNG shows exactly what the AVIF shows, including transparent and semi-transparent areas. It can’t bring back detail that a lossy AVIF already discarded, though. A PNG is often several times larger than the AVIF, especially for photos. For photos where file size matters, convert AVIF to JPG instead.

HDR and animation

Animated AVIF becomes a still image of its first frame, with a note. HDR images are saved in standard range; these browser outputs do not preserve the original HDR information. JPG is 8-bit and cannot keep transparency. If your browser cannot decode AVIF, the batch stops with a message asking you to update or change browsers. A damaged file may still fail in a supported browser. For other output formats, use AVIF to JPG (JPEG), AVIF to WebP.

Frequently asked questions

Can I turn an AVIF file to PNG on my phone? Yes. Open this page in a current browser on Windows, Mac, Android or iPhone, choose the files and download the result.

Does AVIF to PNG keep transparency? Yes. Transparent and semi-transparent areas are kept without adding a white or black background.

Will the PNG be better quality than the AVIF? No. PNG keeps the decoded image without adding detail. It cannot recover information already discarded by the source.

Are my images uploaded? No. Your browser reads and converts the images on your device, and nothing is sent to a server, so the converter is also safe to use for private photos and screenshots.
