Batch AVIF to PNG Converter

Convert AVIF to PNG online for free. 100% secure, fast, and private local file conversion directly in your browser. No software installation required.

Why convert AVIF to PNG?

AVIF is a delivery format, not an editing one. Its lossy compression is great for serving images, but retouchers, compositors, and archivists need a lossless, widely supported working file, and that is PNG. Converting AVIF to PNG preserves the decoded pixels exactly for masking, color grading, and layer work in editors that still cannot open AVIF directly. It is also the reliable route when a print shop, a designer's plugin set, or a document pipeline demands PNG input.

WasmConvert decodes AVIF to PNG locally in your browser, giving you a lossless raster you can drop straight into an editing workflow. The PNG output is much larger than the AVIF source, which is expected — you are trading compression for editability and compatibility. Because processing never leaves the device, batch-converting an AVIF photo set into PNG masters keeps every file private. There are no upload caps, so even large AVIF exports from HDR-capable cameras convert without friction.

Common use cases

  • Turning AVIF web assets into lossless PNG working files for retouching and compositing.
  • Supplying PNG to print shops and design pipelines that cannot accept AVIF.
  • Archiving decoded AVIF photos as lossless PNG masters before the originals are deleted.

AVIF

AVIF is a next-generation image format based on the AV1 video codec. It offers significantly better compression than WebP and JPEG while supporting HDR and wide color gamuts.

PNG

PNG is a lossless raster image format that supports transparent backgrounds. It is the format of choice for icons, logos, and web graphics where detail and clarity are more important than file size.

Pro tips for AVIF to PNG conversion

  • PNG captures what the AVIF decoder produced, including tone mapping from HDR to SDR — verify shadows and highlights where HDR detail was compressed.
  • For archival, keep the original AVIF too: re-encoding a lossy format into PNG never recovers detail the AVIF already discarded.
  • If you need smaller lossless files than PNG, compare against lossless WebP, which can beat PNG by roughly 26% for the same pixel data.

AVIF to PNG FAQ

Will AVIF to PNG conversion preserve transparency?
Yes. Both AVIF and PNG support transparency. All alpha channel information is perfectly preserved during the conversion process.
Why is the PNG output much larger than the AVIF?
AVIF is dramatically more efficient than PNG. A 200KB AVIF image could become 2-5MB as PNG because PNG doesn't benefit from AVIF's advanced perceptual compression algorithms.
When should I choose PNG over keeping AVIF?
Choose PNG when you need to edit the image in software that doesn't support AVIF, when sending files to print shops, or when transparency is needed in a universally compatible format.
Can I convert AVIF to PNG on Mac?
Yes. Our web-based converter works on any Mac with a modern browser. No software installation needed — just visit the page, drop your AVIF file, and download the PNG result.
Does AVIF to PNG improve image quality?
No. Converting from a lossy format (AVIF) to a lossless format (PNG) preserves the current quality but cannot restore data lost during original AVIF compression.
