FAQ
Got questions?
AVIF supports transparency. If the AVIF image has a transparent background (logos, icons), converting to PNG preserves that transparency. JPG doesn't support it and would fill the background with white.
Modern browsers (Chrome 85+, Firefox 93+, Safari 16+), Windows 11 with extensions, and Adobe Photoshop since 2022. Most design software, file managers, and older systems don't open AVIF.
AVIF has better compression (30-50% smaller files). PNG has better compatibility (works with 100% of software). For editing or use in design tools, PNG is the right choice.
Since Photoshop 23.2 (February 2022) there's native AVIF support. In older versions, you need the updated Camera Raw plugin or convert to PNG first.
Yes. Decoding and conversion happen entirely in your browser. Your AVIF image is never transmitted to any server.
You need Chrome 85+, Firefox 93+, Safari 16+, or Edge 121+ for the browser to decode the AVIF file. Older browsers will show an error message.
AVIF to PNG: compatibility and transparency
AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is the next-gen image format driven by the Alliance for Open Media. With support for HDR, 12-bit transparency, and compression superior to WebP and JPG, it's becoming the standard for high-quality web images. Sites like Netflix, Google, and Shopify already serve images in AVIF.
However, AVIF has a critical compatibility problem outside the browser: Photoshop supports it since 2022, but older software, file managers, and most design tools don't open it. When you need to edit a downloaded AVIF image, converting to PNG is the necessary first step.
The specific advantage of AVIF to PNG (versus AVIF to JPG) is transparency preservation. AVIF supports up to 12-bit alpha channel, and PNG can store that transparency without loss. For logos, icons, and graphics with transparency from modern sites, PNG is the only compatible alternative that preserves the transparent background.
