How to convert AVIF to JPG
- Drop your AVIF files onto the box above, or paste them with Ctrl+V.
- Pick a quality. Around 90% is indistinguishable from the original for most images.
- Your browser does the work on your own machine.
- Save each file from its tile, or take them all at once.
What changes, and what does not
Transparency is lost
AVIF can hold see-through pixels and JPG cannot. Anything transparent is filled with the colour you pick in the panel, white unless you change it. If you need the transparency, PNG, WebP and AVIF all keep it.
Animation is lost
A AVIF can hold many frames and a JPG holds one, so you get the first frame as a still image. A browser canvas cannot write animation back out, and a converter that claims to is doing it on a server with your file.
The loss compounds
Both formats throw detail away to get small, so a AVIF that was already compressed once is compressed again on the way to JPG, this time including the artefacts of the first pass. Convert from the original rather than from a copy, and do it once.
Colour
AVIF: millions, with 10 and 12 bit depth and wide colour where the source has it. JPG: 16.7 million, with no transparency at all.
AVIF and JPG side by side
| AVIF | JPG | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it came from | 2019, built on the AV1 video codec | 1992, from the Joint Photographic Experts Group |
| Throws detail away | Yes | Yes |
| Transparency | Yes | No |
| Animation | Yes | No |
| Where it opens | Every current browser. Outside the browser, support is still thin. | Everywhere, on everything, including hardware old enough to vote |
| Best at | Photographs on a web page you want as small as they can honestly go | Photographs, and anything going somewhere you cannot predict |
How much smaller will the file be?
It depends on the quality you choose. At the default the result is usually a little smaller, because JPG is the more efficient of the two, but the honest answer is that you are re-compressing something already compressed and the gain is modest. Drop the quality and the file drops with it.
Can I convert it back afterwards?
Each pass loses a little more, so a file converted back and forth repeatedly will visibly degrade. Once is fine. Doing it as a habit is not. Always start from whichever copy has been compressed fewest times.
About AVIF
The newest and smallest of the web formats. Support outside browsers is still thin.
Worth knowing: Needs a browser released in the last few years to decode.
About JPG
The safest choice: every device, upload form and printer accepts it.
Will the quality change?
JPG is lossy, so the image is decoded and re-encoded and a little detail is dropped. At high quality this is invisible. Convert once from your original rather than repeatedly, because each pass compounds.
What happens to transparency?
JPG cannot store it. Any transparent area is filled with the colour you choose in the panel, which defaults to white. If you need the transparency kept, convert to PNG, WebP or AVIF instead.
Other conversions
AVIF also converts to PNG, WebP, PDF and Word.
JPG also comes from HEIC, PNG, WebP, GIF and BMP.
