Why convert AVIF to PNG?

Some tools can't read AVIF: Figma can't import it, Shopify's upload list leaves it out, and Windows Photos and Office need an extra extension. PNG opens in all of them and keeps transparent areas, like AVIF. The PNG is bigger than the AVIF and looks the same.

AVIF vs PNG

AVIF is made for the web: files stay small and about 96% of browsers show it. PNG stores every pixel exactly, so the file is much bigger, but it opens in every app. Use AVIF on your website and PNG for tools that can't read AVIF.

“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.”

AVIF to PNG: frequently asked questions

Will my PNG look better than the AVIF?

No. The PNG looks the same: detail the AVIF left out doesn't come back.

Should I convert AVIF to PNG or to JPEG?

PNG keeps transparent areas; JPEG fills them with white. Choose PNG for logos, cut-outs and anything transparent, or AVIF to JPG for photos.

Why is my PNG bigger than the AVIF?

AVIF stores images more efficiently, so the same image needs more bytes as PNG. Measured on real images converted with TinyPNG, it usually comes out about 4.7 times the size.

Can I convert PNG back to AVIF?

Yes. Use the swap button, or go to PNG to AVIF. Detail removed by compression doesn't come back.

Is AVIF better than PNG?

For photos, PNG to AVIF is usually more than 95% smaller, and both keep transparency. 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.

JPG or PNG: which should I use?

JPG for photos: much smaller, and it opens everywhere. PNG for logos, screenshots and cut-outs: it keeps every pixel and supports transparency. A photo saved as PNG is several times bigger than it needs to be, while flat graphics or art may be much smaller and higher quality with PNG. Photos saved as PNG usually shrink by about 90% when converted to JPG, measured on real images converted with TinyPNG. Screenshots and text can get fuzzy edges as JPG, so keep those as PNG.

Is PNG lossless?

Yes. A PNG stores every pixel exactly, which is also why the files are large. Our compressor applies lossy compression by reducing the colours, so its result looks the same rather than being pixel-identical.

How do I convert AVIF to PNG?

Add your AVIF images above, choose PNG and download the result. It works in your browser on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android, with nothing to install.

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 converts 3 images per session, up to 5 MB each, without an account. Web Pro takes bigger files, and Web Ultra converts as many as you like.

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.
