What is a AVIF file?
AVIF is a modern image format based on the AV1 video codec. It usually produces smaller files than JPEG and even WebP at similar quality, and supports transparency and HDR. More and more websites, CDNs and phone cameras save images as AVIF. Current Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari can display it, but many photo editors, office apps, upload forms and print services still can't, so people convert AVIF to JPG.
How to open a AVIF file
- Windows: open in a modern browser, or install the free AV1 extension for Photos.
- Mac: recent macOS versions open AVIF in Preview and Safari.
- iPhone: iOS 16 and later open AVIF in Safari and Files.
- Android: opens in Chrome and recent gallery apps.
AVIF vs JPG
| Property | AVIF | JPG |
|---|---|---|
| File size | Very small | Small |
| Quality | High (lossy or lossless) | Good (lossy) |
| Transparency | Supported | No |
| Compatibility | Browsers yes, many apps no | Universal |
| Best for | Modern websites | Photos and sharing |
AVIF is a modern image format designed for superior web compression, offering rich color depth, support for transparency, and tiny file footprints. Despite these advantages, AVIF's novelty means many software programs, older operating systems, and web forms cannot open or display it. JPG, by contrast, is the universal standard for digital images, supported by virtually every software program and gadget in existence. Converting AVIF to JPG trades transparency and extreme compression for guaranteed universal accessibility, ensuring your photos open reliably anywhere without requiring specialized software.
When You Need to Convert AVIF to JPG
You will frequently encounter situations where switching from AVIF to JPG is necessary:
Job and government portals: Online portals for passport renewals, visa submissions, and job applications regularly reject AVIF files, accepting only standard JPGs.
Editing software: Many desktop graphics editors, presentation tools, and office suites cannot open or edit AVIF files downloaded from modern websites.
Cross-device sharing: Sending images to friends or clients using older smartphones, operating systems, or digital frames that do not yet support AVIF.
Commercial printing: Submitting digital graphics or photography to online print shops and retail kiosks that require standard JPG formatting.
Why convert in your browser?
Most online converters send your files to their servers and promise to delete them later. FileFlip does the work on your own device instead, so there is nothing to delete: you can even switch on airplane mode after the page loads and it keeps working. See the privacy proof
Frequently asked questions
Why won't my AVIF file open on my computer?
AVIF is a newer image format that older operating systems, default photo viewers, and legacy software do not natively support. Converting the image to JPG ensures it opens reliably on any device without requiring third-party plugins.
What happens to image transparency when converting AVIF to JPG?
The JPG standard does not support transparent layers. Any transparent areas in your original AVIF file will automatically be rendered with a solid white background upon conversion.
Will converting from AVIF to JPG increase my file size?
Typically, yes. AVIF features significantly more advanced compression than JPG, meaning a JPG of comparable visual clarity will usually require a larger file size.
Can I convert multiple AVIF files at the same time?
Yes, you can batch convert up to 10 AVIF files at once. When the process finishes, you can download your JPGs individually or save them all at once as a ZIP file.
Are my images uploaded to an external server?
No, your images are never uploaded. Conversion takes place entirely on your device using your browser's canvas engine, keeping your files completely private.
Why am I seeing a browser compatibility notice?
This tool relies on your browser's built-in AVIF decoding capabilities, supported by current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari. If you see an alert, updating your browser to the latest release will enable full support.
