This page doesn't run its own converter — pressing "Open Universal Image Converter" takes you to TryDocsy's shared multi-format tool, where you drop your AVIF and pick PNG as the output yourself. That matters here specifically because the tool's output format defaults to JPG the moment it loads, not PNG, so you have to click PNG in the "Convert To" row before converting; it isn't chosen for you just because you arrived from this page.

Choosing PNG instead of JPG is worth the extra click whenever the source AVIF has anything transparent in it — a sticker, a logo, a UI screenshot with rounded corners — since PNG is lossless and keeps an alpha channel intact, while converting the same file to JPG would flatten those transparent areas to solid white. The trade-off is size: a PNG rebuilt from a photographic AVIF is typically the larger of the two outputs, because nothing about the pixel data gets thrown away during encoding. Uploads are capped at 20 MB per file either way.

How it works

  1. 1. Open the Universal Image Converter

    Click "Open Universal Image Converter" — this is the tool that actually decodes your AVIF and re-encodes it.

  2. 2. Drop your AVIF file

    Use the "Drop any image here" area to add one or more .avif files, up to 20 MB each.

  3. 3. Choose PNG as the output

    Click "PNG" in the Convert To row. It isn't selected by default — JPG is.

  4. 4. Convert and download

    Press "Convert N Image(s) to PNG," then download the result, or grab everything together as one ZIP if you converted several files.

When you'd use it

  • Keeping a transparent sticker or logo transparent

    AVIF graphics exported with a genuine alpha channel need PNG to keep that transparency, since routing the same file through the JPG converter on this site would fill those areas white instead.

  • Archiving a screenshot without introducing compression artifacts

    A UI screenshot or diagram saved as AVIF can pick up visible blockiness around sharp edges and text if it's turned into a JPG. Converting to PNG instead keeps every pixel exactly as decoded.

  • Preparing an AVIF image for an editor that only opens common formats

    Some design and photo-editing tools accept PNG uploads readily but don't recognise AVIF at all. Converting first, and keeping PNG rather than JPG, avoids losing transparency you might need for further editing.

  • Getting a lossless copy for print or further processing

    If an AVIF image will go through more editing or printing later, converting it to PNG avoids stacking a second round of lossy compression on top of whatever compression AVIF already applied.

PNG is the format that actually keeps transparency here

Filling the canvas with a solid colour before drawing only happens for output formats that have no way to represent see-through pixels, and PNG doesn't fall into that group. Pick PNG here and the canvas is left empty until your AVIF is drawn onto it, so any area that was transparent in the source stays exactly that way in the finished file.

This is the main reason to land on this page rather than AVIF to JPG: if your file has genuinely transparent pixels worth keeping, PNG is the only one of the two outputs on this site that preserves them.

Selecting PNG takes one extra click

The Universal Image Converter opens with JPG selected in the Convert To row no matter which page sent you there, since it's a shared tool used for many format pairs, not one built specifically around AVIF to PNG. Clicking PNG yourself before pressing Convert is the only step this page adds on top of the generic flow.

No quality slider, and a bigger file

Because PNG compresses losslessly rather than lossily, the Quality slider that appears when JPG or WEBP is selected simply doesn't show up once you pick PNG — there's nothing for it to adjust. The cost of that lossless output is file size: a PNG built from a photographic AVIF is routinely larger than the same picture converted to JPG, since none of the original pixel data is discarded to save space.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to change anything after uploading my AVIF?

Yes — click "PNG" in the Convert To row. The converter opens with JPG selected regardless of which page linked you there.

Will my AVIF's transparency be kept in the PNG?

Yes. Choosing PNG as the output leaves the canvas transparent wherever the source AVIF had an alpha channel, unlike converting to JPG, which always fills transparent areas with white.

Why is the resulting PNG bigger than a JPG would be?

PNG doesn't throw away any pixel data during encoding, so it typically produces a larger file than a JPG at any quality setting. That's the cost of keeping the image lossless and, where relevant, transparent.

Is there a quality setting for PNG output?

No. PNG compresses losslessly, so the Quality slider shown for JPG and WEBP output doesn't appear once PNG is selected — there's nothing it would control.

How large an AVIF file can I convert here?

Up to 20 MB per file through the Universal Image Converter.

Can I convert several AVIF files to PNG in one go?

Yes. Upload multiple files, convert them together, and download the results individually or as a single ZIP archive.
