About the AVIF to PNG
AVIF is AV1 Image File Format. The smallest of the modern formats — often half the size of JPG at the same quality, with transparency and wide colour support. Slow to encode, and support outside browsers is still patchy. Encoding depends on your browser having an AVIF encoder.
PNG is Portable Network Graphics. Lossless, with full alpha transparency. Perfect for screenshots, logos, diagrams and anything with hard edges or flat colour. Large for photographs — it stores every pixel exactly, and a photograph has no repeating detail to compress.
What changes in this conversion: PNG holds a single image. An animated AVIF will be converted to its first frame only. Converting to PNG cannot restore what AVIF already discarded. The file will get larger without getting better — the compression artefacts are stored losslessly along with everything else.
The whole conversion happens on a canvas in your own browser. The file is read from disk with the File API, decoded, redrawn and re-encoded locally, so it is never uploaded and there is no size limit beyond your device's memory.
How it works
Drop in a AVIF file — it is read by your browser, not uploaded.
It is decoded and re-encoded as PNG on your own device.
Download the result. Nothing is stored anywhere.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I convert AVIF to PNG?
- Drop your AVIF file onto this page and the PNG version is produced immediately, in your browser. There is no upload, no queue and no account — the conversion runs on your own device using the canvas API.
- Does converting AVIF to PNG lose quality?
- PNG is lossless, so nothing further is discarded during the conversion itself. Anything already lost by AVIF's own compression cannot be recovered.
- Is my AVIF file uploaded to a server?
- No. The file is read by your browser, decoded and re-encoded on your device, and handed straight back. Nothing is transmitted, which matters when the image is a document, a screenshot of something private, or a photograph with location data in it.
- Why would I convert AVIF to PNG?
- Lossless, with full alpha transparency. Perfect for screenshots, logos, diagrams and anything with hard edges or flat colour. That is usually the reason. Slow to encode, and support outside browsers is still patchy. Encoding depends on your browser having an AVIF encoder.
