AVIF is new, and lots of apps and websites can’t open it yet. Converting to JPG fixes that: opens on every device and website.
Drop one AVIF or a hundred — they’re converted inside your browser, so even private photos are never uploaded anywhere.

Good to know before converting AVIF to JPG
- JPG can’t store transparency, so any see-through areas in your AVIF are filled with white.
- JPG is a still image format, so an animated AVIF becomes its first frame.
- JPG is the safest choice for upload forms, email and printing — it opens everywhere.
- Hidden data like GPS location and camera details is left out of the converted file.
What is AVIF?
AVIF is the newest mainstream image format, based on the AV1 video codec. It squeezes photos dramatically smaller than JPG while keeping them sharp, and supports transparency and HDR. It’s still new, so many apps and websites don’t accept it yet.
What is JPG?
JPG has been the default photo format since the 1990s. It shrinks photos by quietly throwing away detail your eye barely notices, which is why it opens on literally everything — but it can’t do transparency and it loses a little quality every time it’s re-saved.
How to convert AVIF to JPG
- Drop your AVIF files (or paste with Ctrl+V).
- JPG is already selected — adjust quality if you like.
- Download one by one or all as a ZIP.
Frequently asked questions
Does converting AVIF to JPG reduce quality?
Only very slightly. JPG is lossy; at the default quality the difference is practically invisible. Raise the quality slider for maximum fidelity.
Can I convert many AVIF files at once?
Yes — drop as many as you like and download them all as one ZIP.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. Everything happens inside your browser on your own device. Your images are never uploaded, stored or seen by anyone — check your browser's Network tab, or turn on airplane mode after the page loads and see that it still works.
Is it really free?
Yes. No sign-up, no watermark, no daily limits and no paid “HD” downloads.
Do downloads still contain my location?
No. Every file you download is saved without hidden metadata like GPS location, camera serial number or owner name.
