Converts to .jpg — stays on your device
Why convert AVIF to JPG?
- Opening a right-click-saved photo from a modern site (where AVIF is now served by default) in Microsoft Word or Pages.
- Attaching product photos to eBay, Etsy, or Amazon listings that don't recognize AVIF.
- Embedding images in Outlook desktop, Apple Mail campaigns, or Mailchimp templates that render AVIF inconsistently.
- Uploading to WordPress plugins, Shopify themes, or older CMSes that still expect JPG or PNG.
- Preparing photos for older Android gallery apps or devices that predate AVIF support.
- Sharing via corporate intranet tools and government portals stuck on legacy file pickers.
How our converter works
AVIF is decoded using your browser's native image decoder — every modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) ships with AVIF support — then re-encoded as JPG via an in-memory Canvas. Nothing is uploaded. The conversion finishes in under a second for typical photos and leaves no trace after the tab closes.
AVIF vs JPG — what's the difference?
| Feature | AVIF | JPG |
|---|---|---|
| Compression | Best-in-class — 30–50% smaller than JPG | Standard — universal baseline |
| Compatibility | Modern browsers; spotty in desktop apps | Every app, every version, forever |
| Transparency | Yes (flattened on conversion) | No |
| HDR support | Yes — 10/12-bit color | No — 8-bit SDR only |
| Best for | Web delivery, storage efficiency | Sharing, uploading, legacy apps |
Frequently asked questions
Why was this photo saved as AVIF instead of JPG?
Most modern websites now serve AVIF to browsers that support it because the files are significantly smaller. Right-click-save captures whatever format the site chose to serve, which is increasingly AVIF.
Will I lose quality converting AVIF to JPG?
A small amount — JPG re-encodes whatever the AVIF already compressed, adding one more lossy pass. At 90% quality this is usually invisible.
What happens to AVIF transparency?
JPG has no transparency, so transparent pixels are flattened to white. If you need to preserve transparency, convert to PNG instead.
Will my output JPG be bigger than the AVIF?
Typically yes — often 1.5–2× larger. That's the tradeoff for compatibility. If file size matters more than compatibility, stick with AVIF.
Which browsers support AVIF decoding?
Chrome 85+, Firefox 93+, Safari 16+, and every major browser released from 2023 onward. This converter uses the browser's native decoder, so if you can view the AVIF, you can convert it.
Does this handle batch conversions?
Yes. Drop or select multiple AVIFs and they convert sequentially. For batches over three files, the output is offered as a ZIP.
About the AVIF format
AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) was standardized in 2019 and became widely supported by 2022, using the AV1 video codec to compress stills. It routinely produces files 30–50% smaller than JPG and 20–30% smaller than WebP at matched visual quality, with native support for transparency, HDR, and wide color gamuts. The tradeoff is the usual newcomer problem: many desktop apps, older email clients, and legacy platforms still can't open AVIF. Converting to JPG is the no-drama escape hatch.
