Frequently asked questions

What is an AVIF file?

AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a modern image format based on the AV1 video codec. It achieves significantly smaller file sizes than JPEG, WebP, and even HEIC while maintaining high visual quality. iPhones running iOS 16+ can save photos as AVIF. Many websites serve AVIF images to reduce load times.

Why convert AVIF to JPG?

Despite excellent compression, AVIF isn't universally supported — older browsers, Windows Photo Viewer, and many design apps don't open AVIF files. JPG works everywhere: every app, every OS, every social platform. Convert to JPG for maximum compatibility.

Is AVIF to JPG conversion lossy?

Yes — JPG is a lossy format. The converter uses 92% quality which is visually lossless for most content. You won't see a visible quality difference at this setting. To further reduce file size after converting, use the image compressor.

Does my AVIF file get uploaded to a server?

No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Your file never leaves your device.

What browsers support AVIF?

Chrome 85+, Firefox 93+, Safari 16.4+, and Edge 121+ all support AVIF. Older browsers will not be able to preview AVIF files. This converter works in any modern browser — just drop the AVIF file even if your OS can't display it natively.

Can I convert multiple AVIF files to JPG at once?

Yes — drop multiple files and they will all be converted simultaneously.

How is AVIF different from HEIC?

Both are modern, highly-compressed formats, but AVIF is an open standard (royalty-free) while HEIC is Apple's proprietary format. AVIF is used on the web; HEIC is used on Apple devices. For iPhone photos, use the HEIC to JPG converter instead.

Need to convert a different image format?

The Image to JPG converter accepts any format — PNG, WebP, BMP, TIFF, GIF, SVG and more — in a single tool.

What is AVIF format?

AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a next-generation image format developed by the Alliance for Open Media. It is based on the AV1 video codec and typically achieves file sizes 50% smaller than JPG and 20% smaller than WebP at equivalent visual quality. AVIF is royalty-free and open-source, which is why it is increasingly used on the web and in modern smartphones.

Which browsers support AVIF?

AVIF is supported in Chrome 85+, Firefox 93+, Edge 121+, and Safari 16.4+. Older browsers — including Internet Explorer and Safari before 16.4 — cannot display AVIF files. Desktop apps like Windows Photo Viewer and older versions of Photoshop also lack AVIF support. Converting to JPG ensures your image works in every environment.

AVIF vs WebP vs JPG — which is best?

AVIF offers the best quality-to-file-size ratio of the three formats — ideal for web performance. WebP is a good middle ground with strong browser compatibility and about 30% smaller files than JPG. JPG has near-universal compatibility with every app, OS, and platform. Choose AVIF for cutting-edge web delivery, WebP for modern web projects, and JPG when you need broad compatibility for sharing or printing.

How do I open an AVIF file on Windows?

Windows 10 and 11 can open AVIF files in the Photos app if you have the AV1 Video Extension installed from the Microsoft Store (search for "AV1 Video Extension" — it's free). Alternatively, modern versions of Chrome, Firefox, or Edge can display AVIF files directly. If you just need to view and share the image, converting to JPG with this tool is the simplest solution.
