AVIF and PNG - what's the difference?

AVIF Modern format
AVIF is a modern image format built for strong compression and high visual quality.
PNG Universal
PNG is a popular lossless image format commonly used for screenshots, graphics, and transparent images.

PNG: Choose PNG when you need lossless quality, transparency, and broad software compatibility. JPG: Choose JPG instead when you need a smaller file and the image has no transparency.

Why People Convert AVIF to PNG

Convert AVIF files to PNG online for free. This is a practical option when you need a format that works in more software, supports lossless editing, or is required by a tool that does not accept AVIF.

AVIF is excellent for web delivery because of its small file sizes, but it is not yet supported everywhere. Many desktop applications, image editors, document tools, and older platforms cannot open AVIF files. Converting to PNG gives you a version that works broadly across all software while preserving the full visual quality of the image.

PNG is also the better working format when you need to edit, composite, or reuse the image in a design workflow — it is lossless and supported by every major image editor.

Common situations where this helps

An AVIF image downloaded from a website needs to be opened in an application that does not support AVIF.

An AVIF asset needs to be used in a design tool, document, or presentation that only accepts PNG or JPG.

A developer needs a PNG version of an AVIF image for a platform or CI pipeline that does not process AVIF.

An AVIF image with transparency needs to be exported to PNG to preserve the alpha channel for further editing.

Common problems and fixes

The application cannot open the AVIF file.

AVIF support in desktop software is still limited. Converting to PNG gives you a format that opens in every image editor, browser, and document tool.

The PNG is much larger than the AVIF.

This is expected. AVIF uses aggressive compression to keep files small. PNG is lossless and stores the full image data without compression loss, so the file size is much larger.

The converted PNG looks different from the AVIF.

AVIF uses lossy compression, so some fine detail may have been lost before conversion. The PNG accurately reflects what the AVIF contained — it cannot recover detail that AVIF compression removed.

Frequently asked questions

Why convert AVIF to PNG instead of keeping AVIF?
AVIF is not supported everywhere. PNG opens in virtually every application. Convert to PNG when you need to edit the image, use it in a tool that rejects AVIF, or share it with someone whose software cannot read AVIF.
Does AVIF to PNG preserve transparency?
Yes. Both AVIF and PNG support transparency. If the AVIF has transparent areas, they are preserved in the PNG output.
Will the PNG be larger than the AVIF?
Yes. AVIF is highly compressed; PNG is lossless. The same image stored as PNG is typically several times larger than the AVIF version.
Can I convert multiple AVIF files to PNG at once?
Yes. Add multiple files and download each PNG individually or use Download all.
Is this AVIF to PNG converter free?
Yes. It is free to use in your browser.
