AVIF to JPG

Why convert AVIF to JPG?

The main difference: AVIF is a lossy or lossless format, while JPG is a lossy format. JPG is supported almost everywhere; AVIF isn't. AVIF can have a transparent background, JPG can't.

Works on every device

Plenty of apps and websites can't read AVIF (Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari 16+; many apps can't open it yet). A JPG copy opens on any phone, tablet, computer or browser, so you can view, upload or send the picture without hunting for special software.

Where JPG works best

JPG is ideal for photos, sharing, email, social media. Converting gives you a file that works in the apps and websites that ask for JPG.

What is an AVIF file?

AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a modern image format based on the AV1 video codec, developed by the Alliance for Open Media - Google, Apple, Microsoft, Netflix and others. It typically produces smaller files than both JPG and WebP at the same visual quality.

AVIF supports transparency, HDR and wide color, which makes it a favorite for fast websites. Support outside browsers is still patchy, so downloaded AVIF files often need converting.

How to open an AVIF file

Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari 16+ display AVIF. Windows 11 opens it in Photos once the free AV1 Video Extension is installed; macOS Ventura and later preview it. For editors and forms that refuse it, convert to JPG or PNG.

What is a JPG file?

JPG (also written JPEG, from the Joint Photographic Experts Group that created it in 1992) is the most widely used photo format in the world. Phones, cameras, websites, email and social networks all handle it.

JPG uses lossy compression: it discards fine detail your eye barely notices, which makes photos 5-10 times smaller than an uncompressed copy. The trade-off is that every re-save loses a little more detail, and it can't store a transparent background.

How to open a JPG file

Every device opens JPG files out of the box: Photos on Windows and Mac, the Photos or Gallery app on iPhone and Android, and any web browser. To edit one, use Photoshop, GIMP, Canva or the free tools on ConvertPixels.
