About AVIF to JPG
Where AVIF files come from
Websites increasingly send images as AVIF, so pictures saved from the web often end in .avif. Many photo apps, editors, printers, and upload forms still can't open it. JPG works in every one of them.
What changes
- See-through parts are filled with the colour you pick, because JPG has no transparency.
- The JPG is a new lossy copy. At High quality it looks the same.
- AVIF can hold HDR and wide colour. The JPG is standard colour (sRGB), so very bright highlights may look flatter.
- An animated AVIF gives a still JPG of its first frame.
- The file is usually several times larger.
Measured
Our 12-megapixel sample photo saved as AVIF, converted at High quality in Chrome on a laptop. Phone timings are still to be measured.
| AVIF file | 38 KB |
|---|---|
| JPG file | 182 KB |
| Time in Chrome (laptop) | 0.1 seconds |
In your browser
Current Chrome, Edge, and Firefox, and Safari on macOS 13, iOS 16, and later, read AVIF themselves and write JPG, so nothing extra is downloaded. Older browsers that can't read AVIF download a 0.3 MB AVIF decoder (libavif) for the first conversion.
Limits
- HDR AVIF images are converted to standard colour.
- Animated AVIF gives only the first frame.
- Very large images may be reduced to about 16 megapixels on iPhones. The result says so.
Other options
- JPG to AVIF: turn JPGs into AVIF for a faster website.
- Compress image: make the JPG smaller, or reach a target size.
- Image to PDF on Open PDF Toolkit: put the images into one PDF.
Questions
Why can't I open AVIF files?
AVIF is a newer format that websites use because it is small. Browsers show it, but many photo viewers, editors, upload forms, and older versions of Windows and macOS can't open it. JPG opens everywhere.
Are my images uploaded?
No. Your files are processed on your device. We never upload them.
Why is the JPG so much bigger?
AVIF compresses far better than JPG. Our 38 KB sample AVIF became a 182 KB JPG at High quality.
What happens to transparency?
JPG can't store it, so see-through parts are filled with white, black, or a colour you pick.
Does it work with animated AVIF?
Only the first frame is converted.
Can I convert many images at once?
Yes. Choose or drop as many as you like and download them all as one zip.
