How to convert AVIF to JPG

Transform your AVIF images into JPG in seconds. Everything runs in your browser — no file ever leaves your device.

4 min readUpdated on April 25, 2026

Maximum compatibility matters (old Safari, IE), or you need the file in an editor that doesn't support AVIF. You need maximum compatibility, small file size, and don't mind minor quality loss.

What is AVIF?

A next-generation format based on the AV1 video codec, released in 2019. Compresses even further than WebP — typically 30-50% smaller than JPG at the same visual quality. Adopted by Netflix, YouTube, and increasingly by big sites for performance-critical images.

  • Sites obsessed with Core Web Vitals
  • Hero images and heavy banners
  • E-commerce where latency hits conversion
  • Content distributed over bandwidth-limited networks

Why convert to JPG

A lossy-compressed image format created by the Joint Photographic Experts Group in 1992. It's the most universal photo format — every browser, app, and OS opens JPG without anything extra.

  • Photos with lots of detail and color variation
  • Images sent over email or social media
  • Cases where file size matters more than absolute quality
  • Mid-quality print material

Step-by-step: convert your image

1. Upload the file

Drag your AVIF file into the upload area, or click to select it from your computer. You can upload several files at once — they'll be converted in batch.

2. Check the quality setting

JPG has adjustable quality in most cases. Leave it at 85-90% for the best size/quality balance. For professional material, bump it to 95-100%.

3. Click convert and download

Processing is near-instant (seconds per image) because it happens right in your browser. When it's done, download each file individually or all together as a ZIP.

AVIF vs JPG: technical comparison

Before converting, it's worth understanding what each format brings to the table:

AVIF — best for:

  • Sites obsessed with Core Web Vitals
  • Hero images and heavy banners
  • E-commerce where latency hits conversion
  • Content distributed over bandwidth-limited networks

AVIF — limitations:

  • Support still smaller than WebP on very old browsers
  • Slower encoding (but fast decoding)
  • Editors and design tools still catching up

JPG — best for:

  • Photos with lots of detail and color variation
  • Images sent over email or social media
  • Cases where file size matters more than absolute quality
  • Mid-quality print material

JPG — limitations:

  • No transparency (background is always opaque)
  • Repeated compression degrades quality (visible artifacts)
  • Not ideal for graphics with text, fine lines, or flat color areas

Frequently asked questions

Quality depends on both formats. For conversions between modern formats with similar quality (PNG → WebP, for example), the visual loss is imperceptible. For conversions to lossy formats (anything → JPG), quality depends on the level you pick — 85-90% is practically indistinguishable from the original.
