Free AVIF to JPG Converter

How to convert AVIF to JPG

1. Drop your AVIF files onto the box above, or click Choose files. Up to 30 files can be added at once.
2. Check the list. Each file shows its pixel size; a file that only has an .avif name but holds something else is flagged.
3. Set the JPG quality. 90 keeps photos visually identical in most cases; lower values make smaller files.
4. If the AVIF has a transparent background, pick the color that should fill it, because JPG cannot store transparency.
5. Click Convert to JPG, then download each file or all of them as a ZIP archive.

Why AVIF files need converting

AVIF stores a still image compressed with the AV1 video codec inside a HEIF container. Websites use it because the files are small, so images saved from a browser often end up as .avif even when the page showed them as ordinary photos. Read more in our guide to .avif files.

Current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari display AVIF, but many desktop programs, online forms, print shops and older phones still expect JPG or PNG. Windows 11 Photos opens AVIF only with Microsoft's free AV1 Video Extension installed.

JPG or PNG?

JPG is the safe choice for photos: every device opens it and the files stay reasonably small. Choose AVIF to PNG for screenshots, logos and anything with a transparent background, which JPG would fill with a solid color.

Why your browser matters here

This converter uses the AVIF decoder built into your browser. If the browser cannot read a particular AVIF file, for example a 12-bit image or an animated sequence it does not support, the file is marked as unreadable instead of producing a broken JPG. An up-to-date Chrome, Edge or Firefox handles the widest range of AVIF files.

Supported files and limitations

• Accepts AVIF files. The format is checked from the file's contents, not only its extension.
• Up to 30 files at a time, 50 MB each.
• Images up to 50 megapixels and 16,384 pixels on the longest side. A decoded image needs about 4 bytes of memory per pixel, so a 50-megapixel photo takes around 200 MB while it is processed.
• Files are processed one at a time in a background thread, so the page stays responsive.

Transparent areas are filled with the background color you choose, white by default, because JPG has no alpha channel.

An animated AVIF becomes a still JPG of its first frame.

HDR and wide-gamut AVIF images are converted to standard 8-bit sRGB colors, so very bright highlights and saturated colors can look flatter than in the original.

EXIF data and color profiles are not copied into the JPG.

Privacy and security

Your files are opened and processed by your own browser. The ExeDepot server only delivers this page and its scripts; it never receives your files, their contents or their names. The page loads no third-party scripts or ads, and its Content Security Policy allows connections only back to exedepot.com.

Results exist only in your browser's memory until you download them, and they are discarded when you click Convert more files or close the tab. No online tool can promise perfect security, so keep your browser up to date, and for documents you would never put online consider an offline desktop app such as ImageGlass.

Frequently asked questions

Does converting AVIF to JPG lose quality?

A little, because JPG is a lossy format too. At quality 90 the difference is hard to see in photos. Expect the JPG to be larger than the AVIF, because AV1 compression packs the same picture into fewer bytes.

Why does my browser say it cannot read the AVIF file?

Each browser ships its own AVIF decoder, and some do not support every variant of the format. Try the latest Chrome, Edge or Firefox. If none of them opens the file, it is probably damaged or not an AVIF at all; our file type checker shows what it really is.

Are my images uploaded?

No. The browser decodes and re-encodes the image on your own device. You can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and the converter keeps working.

How do I open AVIF files on Windows without converting them?

Install the free AV1 Video Extension from the Microsoft Store for the Photos app, or use a viewer with its own AVIF support such as ImageGlass or XnView MP.
