How to Convert AVIF to PNG

Drag and drop your AVIF files into the box above, or click to browse.

Keep quality at 95-100 for decoded-pixel-preserving PNG output, or compare the result before choosing a lower value.

Why AVIF to PNG helps in editing workflows

AVIF is efficient for delivery, but PNG is often easier to reuse in design review, editing, annotation, and export-heavy workflows. Most people make this conversion because they want a file that behaves more predictably once the image leaves the browser.

When PNG is the better target than JPG or WebP

Choose PNG for further editing, quality-sensitive review, or a pipeline that expects the format. Keep quality at 95-100 when preserving decoded pixels matters more than keeping the file small.

Why AVIF to PNG often increases file size

PNG is broadly compatible and lossless, but it will often be much larger than the AVIF source. This conversion is worth it when editing, compatibility, or handoff stability matters more than compression efficiency.

Known limitations

Before converting, note these constraints:

Output behavior follows format capabilities (for example transparency support and lossy/lossless rules).
Final file size depends on source image content and selected quality settings.
If compatibility is critical, choose broadly supported targets first (typically JPG).

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert AVIF to PNG?

Some applications do not accept AVIF, while PNG is broadly supported. At quality 95-100 PicShift preserves decoded pixels with lossless OxiPNG optimization; lower values may quantize the palette.

Why is the output file sometimes larger than the original?

Output can grow when a lossy source is written to lossless PNG, when codec or container overhead dominates a small image, or when the source is already efficiently compressed. Results depend on the image, format, and settings; no fixed saving is guaranteed. PicShift uses MozJPEG, OxiPNG, and libwebp-based workflows, but those implementation choices do not guarantee the smallest possible file. In compress mode, PicShift keeps the original when the generated result is larger. Learn more: https://picshift.app/docs/size-increase-explainer
