Format comparison

Source

AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a modern image format that targets high compression efficiency while preserving quality. Depending on the environment, encoding/decoding can feel heavier than older formats.

Pros

  • Strong compression efficiency
  • Can support HDR / wide color in supported pipelines
  • Transparency support

Cons

  • Slow encoding
  • Limited browser support
Target

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is the most widely used image format, ideal for photographs and images with gradients.

Pros

  • Universal compatibility
  • Adjustable compression
  • Great for photos

Cons

  • Lossy compression degrades quality
  • No transparency support

When to Convert AVIF to JPEG

Convert AVIF to JPEG for broad compatibility—helpful when the destination doesn’t support AVIF.

Technical details


AVIF is a modern image format often used for web optimization. It can be very efficient for photos, but performance and support vary across browsers and apps.

Good for

- Web delivery: Smaller files on supported platforms
- Photos: Keeping quality while reducing size

Notes

- Performance: Encoding/decoding can feel heavier (split large batches when needed)
- Compatibility: Not every environment can open AVIF — keep WebP/JPEG fallbacks if required

Technical details


JPEG is a lossy format optimized for photos. Lower quality settings reduce file size, but can introduce artifacts around edges and text.

Good for

- Photos: Natural images with gradients
- Sharing: Maximum compatibility

Notes

- Re-encoding: Repeated saves accumulate artifacts (use PNG for editing intermediates)
- Transparency: Not supported

How to Use

1

Add files

Drop or click to select your AVIF files (multiple supported)

2

Confirm output

Default is JPEG. You can change to another supported output format if needed.

3

Adjust options

Set quality, resize, and metadata options only if you need them.

4

Convert & download

Download each file, or download everything as a ZIP for batch outputs.

FAQ

Does quality drop when converting AVIF to JPEG?

Re-encoding from lossy to lossy causes some degradation. Setting quality to 90+ keeps it virtually imperceptible.

Can't I just keep AVIF?

Email attachments, older browsers, some social platforms, and print vendors often don't accept AVIF yet.

Is conversion slow?

AVIF decoding takes a bit longer, but for typical photo sizes it completes in a few seconds.

Can I keep Exif metadata?

When "Keep Exif/Metadata" is ON, we try to carry over things like capture time, camera info, and GPS where possible. Some tags may be dropped depending on the input, output format, and browser environment. Turn it OFF if you want to remove location data before sharing.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Yes. You can select multiple files, convert them in one run, and download each file individually. For multiple outputs, you can also download everything as a ZIP. For very large batches, splitting into smaller runs is more stable.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. Conversion runs locally in your browser, and your images are not sent to an external server.

What happens to transparency?

JPEG doesn’t support transparency, so transparent areas will be flattened to a background. If you need transparency, choose PNG/WebP/AVIF/JXL instead.

Why do colors sometimes shift after conversion?

Differences in decoding/encoding and color handling can cause small shifts. For critical images, compare the output against the original.
