People convert AVIF to PNG to keep transparency: logos, screenshots with a clear background or interface assets that JPG would fill with white. PNG stores the alpha channel intact, so the file opens in any editor without losing transparent areas.
The PNG will be considerably larger than the source AVIF. AVIF compresses very efficiently, often with loss; PNG keeps every pixel and the alpha channel. If the AVIF is animated, only the first frame is converted: PNG is a still image.
How it works
- 1
Drop your AVIF files into the upload zone.
- 2
PNG is preselected so transparency is kept.
- 3
Download the PNGs and open them in any editor.
Frequently asked questions
Is the AVIF’s transparency preserved?
Yes. Unlike JPG, which fills transparent areas with white, PNG keeps the alpha channel. Transparent areas stay transparent.
Why is the PNG larger than the AVIF?
Because AVIF compresses very efficiently and PNG discards nothing: it stores every pixel and the alpha channel. The file grows in exchange for opening anywhere without further degradation.
What happens to an animated AVIF?
The first frame is converted. PNG is not an animation format; the original AVIF is left unchanged.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. All processing happens inside your browser using the Canvas API: your files never leave your device, there are no upload queues, and the tool even works offline once the page has loaded.
