PNG to AVIF Converter FAQ

What is AVIF format?

AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a next-generation image format based on the AV1 video codec. It offers significantly better compression than JPEG, PNG, and WebP, while supporting HDR, wide color gamuts, and full alpha transparency.

Does AVIF support transparency like PNG?

Yes. AVIF supports full alpha transparency, so transparent areas in your PNG are preserved in the AVIF output. This is a key advantage over JPEG.

Which browsers support AVIF?

Chrome 85+, Firefox 93+, Safari 16.4+, and Edge 121+ support AVIF. That covers over 93% of global browser users. Use a PNG or WebP fallback for the remainder.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No. All processing happens locally in your browser. Your files never leave your device.

What quality setting should I use?

75% is an excellent default for most web images. For photographs, 65–80% provides optimal compression. For logos and UI elements requiring maximum sharpness, use 85–90%.

Is AVIF better than WebP for PNG files?

AVIF typically achieves 20–30% better compression than WebP at the same quality, and also supports transparency like WebP. AVIF is the better choice when your browser targets support it.

Can I batch convert multiple PNGs to AVIF?

Yes. Drop multiple PNG files and download all AVIFs in a single click.

Will this improve my website's performance?

Yes. Smaller images directly reduce LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) and page weight, improving Core Web Vitals. Google recommends AVIF and WebP as preferred web formats.

Can I use AVIF for icons and logos with transparency?

Yes. AVIF handles transparency perfectly and delivers much smaller files than PNG for the same content.

Can I use this tool on mobile?

Yes. The tool works in any modern mobile browser on iPhone and Android.

Background

Convert PNG images to AVIF — the next-generation web image format based on the AV1 video codec. AVIF achieves significantly better compression than both PNG and WebP: typically 50%+ smaller files at equivalent quality. Unlike converting to JPEG, AVIF supports full alpha transparency, so transparent PNG elements are preserved in the output.

This makes PNG to AVIF particularly powerful for web developers: you get the transparency of PNG with dramatically smaller file sizes. Icons, logos, and UI graphics that previously required large PNG files can be served as compact AVIFs without losing their transparent backgrounds.

AVIF is supported by Chrome 85+, Firefox 93+, Safari 16.4+, and Edge 121+, covering over 93% of global users. Batch conversion is fully supported — drop multiple PNGs at once and download all AVIFs in a single click. Processing runs entirely client-side; your files never leave your device.
