Nothing leaves your browser — your files are processed on your own device and are never uploaded to any server.

Each AVIF is decoded on a canvas and saved as a PNG, which keeps full quality and transparency. If your browser cannot decode a particular AVIF file, you get a clear error for that file instead of a broken download.

How to use this tool

1
Choose your AVIF images

Pick up to 20 .avif images, or drag and drop them onto the drop zone.

2
Convert in your browser

Press “Convert to PNG”. Each AVIF is decoded on a canvas and saved as a PNG — full quality, with transparency kept. Nothing is uploaded.

3
Download each PNG

A Download button appears next to every converted image. Files that your browser cannot decode are listed as failed, with a clear reason, instead of producing a broken download.

4
Use the PNGs anywhere

PNG opens in every editor, browser and design tool — unlike AVIF, which some older software still cannot open.

Formula & worked example

Decoding an AVIF photo means reversing its AV1 compression: the browser rebuilds every pixel's red, green, blue and alpha values, then re-encodes them as PNG. PNG compression is lossless, so the PNG holds exactly the decoded pixels — no further quality is lost in this step, whatever was lost when the AVIF itself was made stays lost.

A 1.8 MB AVIF photo, 3840 × 2160 pixels, converts to a PNG of roughly 8–12 MB (PNG is lossless, so it is larger) that opens in Photoshop, GIMP, Preview and every browser — with transparency intact if the AVIF had any.

Limitations — read this before you rely on it

AVIF support varies by browser and by AVIF profile: older browsers, and some newer ones with unusual profiles (for example 10-bit or HDR AVIFs), may fail to decode a file that opens elsewhere. In that case you get a clear per-file error, not a broken download — try a newer browser version. Animated AVIF files convert only their first frame, because a PNG is a single still image. PNG files are larger than AVIF files, because PNG compression is lossless.

Frequently asked questions

AVIF is wonderfully small, but many editors, older browsers and design tools still cannot open it. PNG opens everywhere and keeps full quality and transparency, which makes it the safe interchange format.

No further quality is lost: PNG is lossless, so it holds exactly the pixels your browser decoded from the AVIF. Any quality lost when the AVIF was created cannot be recovered by any converter.

Yes. Unlike JPG, PNG stores an alpha channel, so transparent areas in the AVIF stay transparent in the PNG.

AVIF decoding is built into the browser, and support for some profiles (10-bit, HDR, animated) varies. Update your browser, or try the same file in a current Chrome, Edge or Firefox.

No. Decoding and PNG encoding happen entirely in your browser; your images never leave your device.
