Convert AVIF to JPG

Convert an AVIF image to JPEG. AVIF is excellent on the web and still unwelcome in plenty of other places: older phones, desktop photo software, print workflows and most upload forms. Converting back gives you a file those tools will actually open. JPEG is the format that everything opens.

How to convert AVIF to JPG

  1. Drop one AVIF file or a whole folder of them onto the upload area.
  2. The conversion runs automatically.
  3. Compare the original and converted sizes.
  4. Download the JPG, or the whole batch as a ZIP.

Supported formats

This tool accepts AVIF files. Everything is decoded by your own browser, so the formats available depend on what your browser can open - which for HEIC in particular varies between Safari and other browsers.

Because the image is rebuilt from raw pixels, EXIF metadata such as camera details, timestamps and GPS coordinates does not carry into the result. Orientation is applied to the pixels first, so photographs stay the right way up. Embedded colour profiles are also dropped and the output is saved as sRGB, which can shift colours slightly in wide-gamut photographs. Animated files are refused rather than being flattened to a single frame.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my JPG come out larger than the AVIF?

Because AVIF is a much more efficient format. The same picture stored as JPEG needs more bytes to look the same, often two to three times as many. That is not a fault in the conversion - it is the cost of using a format that every piece of software understands. If size matters more than compatibility, keep the AVIF.

Can I convert a whole folder at once?

Yes. Add as many AVIF files as you like and each one is decoded and written back out as a JPG in turn, then downloaded together as a ZIP. Nothing about a AVIF to JPG conversion varies per file, so there is no setting to get wrong halfway through a batch. A file that is damaged or is not really a AVIF is refused as you add it, named individually so you know which one, and the rest of the batch is unaffected.

Is my AVIF uploaded anywhere?

No. Your browser decodes the AVIF and writes the JPG itself, using encoders it already ships with, so the file never leaves your device. That also means there is no size limit imposed by our bandwidth - only by how much of the decoded AVIF your device can hold in memory at once, which is why a very large image can fail on a phone and succeed on a laptop.
