Is transparency preserved?

Yes for static AVIF sources with an alpha channel. The PNG output keeps transparency because both formats support it and this path does not force an opaque background.

Will the PNG be larger than the AVIF?

Usually yes. AVIF is typically more space-efficient; PNG is lossless and often larger, which is the trade-off for maximum editability and compatibility.

Is there a quality slider?

No. PNG export is lossless in the browser and does not expose a quality parameter. Use resize if you need a smaller file.

Are animated AVIF files supported?

No. Animated AVIF is rejected. Use a static AVIF or another format.

Why convert AVIF to PNG?

Convert when a tool, client, or print workflow requires PNG, or when you need a lossless raster with transparency for further editing.

Do I need an account?

No for free single-file conversion. Signing in syncs Free-plan daily usage; Pro unlocks batch ZIP and unlimited exports.

Is conversion private?

Yes. Processing stays in your browser. Your file is not uploaded to Priconvert for conversion.

What about browser support?

Modern Chrome, Firefox, and Safari can decode AVIF. If native decode fails, Priconvert tries a local WASM decoder before giving up.

Can I batch convert, resize, and compress images on this page?

Yes, with Priconvert Pro. Switch to Batch mode to process up to 25 images with shared resize and compression settings, then download them as a ZIP — still processed locally in your browser. Single-file conversion, resize, and compression remain free.

AVIF to PNG converter that keeps transparency

Single mode is free — upload an AVIF, preview the PNG, optionally resize, and download. Pro users can switch to Batch for ZIP download. Processed locally in your browser.

About this converter

What does this AVIF to PNG converter do?

Export AVIF images to lossless PNG without uploading them. Priconvert preserves alpha transparency for static AVIF sources, processes everything locally in your browser, and lets you preview before you download.

AVIF to PNG conversion decodes a static AVIF and writes a PNG that editing tools, printers, and older workflows already accept. PNG is lossless for 8-bit RGBA, so it is a strong choice when you need transparency and maximum compatibility for further editing — even if the PNG file is larger than the AVIF source.

Priconvert runs the conversion on your device. Native AVIF decode is preferred; a WASM decoder loads only if the browser cannot decode the file. Encoding uses the browser’s PNG canvas export — the same shared pipeline as other Priconvert image tools.

Supported formats, transparency, and AVIF context

Input: static .avif. Output: .png with transparency preserved when the source has an alpha channel. Animated AVIF is not supported. PNG output does not use a quality slider because browser PNG export is lossless.

AVIF advantages: efficient compression and optional transparency in a single modern container. Disadvantages: heavier encode cost and weaker support in legacy software. Converting to PNG trades file size for a format every image editor understands, while keeping transparent pixels intact.

Browser compatibility for viewing AVIF is wide on current desktop and mobile browsers. Convert to PNG when a partner, print workflow, or app still requires PNG rather than AVIF or WEBP.

Format guide

What is AVIF?

AVIF is an image format based on the AV1 video codec. It typically achieves higher compression efficiency than JPG and often WEBP for the same visual quality, which makes it attractive for bandwidth-sensitive sites and large photo libraries.

Browser support is now broad on current desktop and mobile engines, but encoding is more expensive than JPG. Priconvert encodes AVIF locally with a WASM encoder on first use (cached for the session). Animated AVIF is not supported in this tool.

When should I use PNG?

PNG is the right choice when you need lossless pixels and/or an alpha channel — logos, UI chrome, screenshots with sharp text, and any graphic where compression artifacts would be obvious. It is a poor default for large photographs because file sizes grow quickly compared with JPG or WEBP.

Export to PNG when editing pipelines expect lossless intermediates, when transparency must be preserved exactly, or when the destination forbids newer formats. For final web delivery of photos, prefer JPG, WEBP, or AVIF instead.

How it works

How AVIF to PNG conversion works

Local decode and lossless PNG export — no account required for single-file use.

1
Upload your AVIF
Drop a static .avif or choose one from your device. Nothing uploads for conversion.
2
Convert on your device
Priconvert decodes the AVIF and exports PNG, keeping transparent pixels when present.
3
Preview and resize if needed
Check the side-by-side preview. Optional resize uses the shared pipeline before PNG export.
4
Download your PNG
Save the file locally. Priconvert does not store your image on a server after conversion.

Privacy

Your AVIF stays on your device

AVIF to PNG is built for private, browser-local conversion — not a server upload pipeline.

Files are processed in the browser on your device.
Priconvert does not upload your image for this conversion.
Batch ZIP export on Pro also runs locally before download.
