Pick PNG when the AVIF holds a graphic or a transparent image, or when you want a lossless master copy to edit. The conversion preserves the full alpha channel and adds no compression artifacts of its own.
AVIF is the newest mainstream image format, based on the AV1 video codec. It compresses even smaller than WebP at comparable quality and is increasingly what you get when you save an image from a modern website. Support outside browsers is still patchy — many editors, viewers and upload forms reject AVIF — so converting it to JPG or PNG remains a daily need.
PNG is a lossless image format that preserves every pixel exactly as it was saved. It supports full alpha transparency, which makes it the standard for logos, icons, screenshots and any graphic that must keep sharp edges and clean text. PNG files are larger than JPG for photos, but they never lose quality no matter how many times they are re-saved.
| AVIF | PNG | |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Raster image | Raster image |
| Compression | Lossy or lossless | Lossless |
| Transparency | Yes | Yes (alpha) |
| Animation | Yes | No |
| Typical use | Modern web images | Logos, screenshots, graphics with text |
When an AVIF needs to enter an editing workflow, PNG is the cleaner destination than JPG: the decode happens once, and everything the file contained — including transparency, which AVIF supports and JPG doesn’t — lands in a lossless container that any design tool can open. That matters for graphics, cutouts and UI assets distributed as AVIF, where flattening the alpha channel onto white would destroy the point of the file.
It also matters for archiving: if you’re keeping a copy of an image whose original source may disappear, PNG guarantees that no further generation loss ever creeps in, no matter how many times the file is opened and re-saved down the years. Size is the trade-off — AVIF’s compression is dramatically better, so expect the PNG to be several times larger than the file you started with.
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermarks and no daily quota. Processing happens in this browser, so the practical limit is the memory available on your device.
Yes. Select or drop as many files as you like — each one is converted in sequence with its own progress status, and you can download the results individually or all together as a ZIP archive.
No — PNG is a lossless format, so the converted file reproduces the decoded image pixel for pixel. No additional compression artifacts are introduced by the conversion.
