Get a lossless PNG out of an AVIF, transparency intact and readable by any editor.
PNG is the safe, lossless copy: transparency kept, any editor can open it, and nothing more is lost from here.
AVIF carries a real alpha channel, and PNG is the most widely supported format that does the same. A logo or product shot lifted from a modern shop keeps its transparent background, including the half-transparent pixels that make a shadow fade instead of ending in a hard line.
Slides, word processors, older photo editors, screen-recording tools and image upload forms have accepted PNG for decades. That makes it the practical bridge when the AVIF has to go somewhere that is not a browser.
AVIF that came off a website has already been encoded at least once. Saving it as PNG puts a stop to further loss: crop it, annotate it, save it again as often as you like and the remaining pixels stay exactly as they were.
The transparency comes through, the file becomes much heavier, and one bit depth is left behind.
AVIF is designed to be tiny; PNG is designed to keep every pixel. Turning a 120 KB AVIF into a PNG can easily produce a two-megabyte file, particularly when the image is a photo. That is expected — use the width field to halve the pixels when you do not need the full resolution, and the result shrinks with it.
Every transparency value survives. Colour, though, is converted to eight-bit sRGB, because that is what an ordinary PNG viewer expects: an AVIF stored in a wide gamut with ten bits per channel loses a little of its extra range, and the brightest highlights can clip. Most pictures look unchanged.
PNG output is lossless, so the Quality field is ignored — there is no detail to trade away. Only the width and the background change the result, and the background should stay on "keep transparency" unless you deliberately want the cut-out flattened onto white or black.
An orientation tag is applied so the PNG is the right way up with matching dimensions. An animated AVIF becomes a still PNG of its first frame, because plain PNG holds one image. Camera details, GPS data and the source colour profile are not written into the file.
Three steps, and the transparency is kept by default.
Drag it onto the box, click to choose, or paste it with Ctrl+V (Cmd+V on a Mac). One file per run, up to 25 MB.
The Background field already means "keep transparency". Type a pixel width when the PNG will be used at a known size — a 1200 px slide graphic, a 512 px icon — and the height follows the aspect ratio. Images are never enlarged.
The preview shows transparent areas as a checkerboard, so you can confirm the cut-out before saving. One click downloads the file, ready for an editor, a document or a form that only accepts PNG.
PNG is a working format, not usually the one you publish.
A PNG of a photograph can be ten times the weight of the AVIF it came from, and your visitors pay for it. If the picture is bound for a page, the AVIF to JPG converter gives a smaller, more compatible file, and compressing the image shaves more off once it is a JPG.
Because PNG keeps everything, it also keeps everything you do not need. Crop to the part that matters and set the final width during the conversion, and the file you carry around afterwards is a fraction of the size of a full-resolution export.
Once the picture has been edited as a PNG, the PNG to WebP converter produces a light, transparent-aware file for the site — smaller than JPG, accepted by every current browser. Archive the PNG and publish the WebP.
Yes. Converting is free and unlimited in practice: no account, no payment, no watermark, no cap on files. Only a short rate limit applies, so the server stays available for other visitors.
Yes, all of it. AVIF and PNG both carry an alpha channel, so fully and partially transparent pixels pass through unchanged and soft shadows stay soft. Nothing is flattened onto a colour, which is the difference from converting to JPG.
AVIF compresses aggressively and PNG keeps every pixel exactly. A photographic AVIF can become a PNG five to ten times its size, and even more for very detailed images. When weight matters, convert to JPG or keep a WebP copy for the web.
Practically yes. PNG is read by every browser, every phone and the vast majority of desktop programs, including the old ones that have never heard of AVIF. It is the most reliable bridge when a modern format has to reach older software.
Up to 25 MB per file, with a 50 megapixel limit on the image itself. Files are processed on our server and not stored: the upload is decoded and only the PNG is sent back to your browser.
