We compress them

Each image comes back as AVIF, usually within seconds.

Why your files get smaller

TinyPNG removes what your eyes can’t see and keeps what they can. Your AVIF image looks the same and weighs a lot less.

Colors we keep

Fewer colors

A photo can hold millions of colors. We merge the ones your eye can’t tell apart, so the file needs fewer bytes to store them.

Smarter encoding

Every image gets its own settings. Flat graphics and busy photos are compressed in different ways.

No hidden extras

Camera data and other metadata you don’t need are removed. Your pixels and dimensions stay exactly the same.

“While there are other ways to achieve a 70% reduction in image size, TinyPNG is the easiest and fastest method I’ve found. Plus, it doesn’t alter the image file names, which is great for maintaining SEO integrity.”

Questions about compressing AVIF

How much smaller will my AVIF be?

It depends on the file. AVIF is already an efficient format, so the saving is smaller than for a JPEG or PNG.

Can I compress AVIF and JPEG files together?

Yes. Every file comes back in its own format.

Is AVIF better than JPEG, PNG or WebP?

Than JPEG: JPG to AVIF is usually more than 70% smaller, measured on real images converted with TinyPNG. Than PNG: for photos, PNG to AVIF is usually more than 95% smaller, and both keep transparency. Than WebP: AVIF is often smaller for photos, but WebP is accepted in more places; Shopify, for example, takes WebP uploads and not AVIF. JPEG and PNG still open everywhere, while AVIF fails in some shops, design tools, older Windows apps and email.

Which browsers support AVIF?

Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari (from 16.4), about 96% of browsers in use. Outside the browser, Windows Photos and Office need the free AV1 Video Extension, and Gmail turns AVIF into JPEG.

Does AVIF support transparency?

Yes, like PNG and WebP. Converting AVIF to JPG fills transparent areas with white, and we ask first.

Is AVIF lossless?

AVIF can be lossy or lossless; most AVIF photos are lossy. We save AVIF lossy.

What is the difference between AVIF and HEIC?

Both make small photos. AVIF is royalty-free and opens in about 96% of browsers; HEIC opens only in Safari. HEIC is what iPhones save by default.

What does AVIF stand for?

AV1 Image File Format: it stores still images with the AV1 video codec.

Does AVIF support animation?

The format can animate, but we don't handle animated AVIF files yet. Animated PNG is the one animated format we support.

What is an AVIF file?

An AVIF is a still image stored with the AV1 video codec, a royalty-free format from the Alliance for Open Media. Websites and image CDNs often serve it because it is small, so it is often what you get when you save an image from a site.

How do I open an AVIF file?

Current Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari show AVIF. Windows Photos and Office need the free AV1 Video Extension from the Microsoft Store. Or convert it to JPG, PNG or WebP here.

Is it free?

Yes. Web Free compresses 20 images per session, up to 5 MB each, without an account. Web Pro and Web Ultra raise the limits.

Are my images private?

Yes. We store your images encrypted, download links expire after 8 hours, and we delete your images from our servers within 48 hours.

What happens to the metadata?

We remove all metadata, such as camera details, GPS location and editing history, to keep files small. Want to keep metadata? Use the developer API: it can keep the copyright, creation date and location.
