Convert
Convert to AVIF
The smallest modern format, where your browser supports it. Free, with no upload — your images stay on your device.
Real example
What it does
AVIF can only be created in browsers that support it, and the browser used to prepare these examples does not. Open the tool to see whether yours does: the AVIF button is greyed out when it is not available.

How to use the convert to avif

STEP 01
Drop your images onto the page, or choose files, a folder, or paste a screenshot.
STEP 02
Choose AVIF in the Export panel. If the button is greyed out, your browser cannot create AVIF yet.
STEP 03
Click Download. Several images arrive together as a ZIP.

Sometimes an image is in the wrong format. Converting it takes one click. This is a PNG with a transparent background. The checkerboard shows the see-through areas. It opens set to WebP, which keeps the transparency and is far smaller. From about 3 MB down to 75 KB. Choose JPG for the widest compatibility. JPG can't be transparent, so the background is filled with a colour. White is the default. You can change it with the fill colour, right here. Choose PNG when you need every pixel exact. The file is larger, because nothing is thrown away. For most websites, WebP is the best balance. Select it, and click Download.
Reference
Every option, explained
Export panel
- Format
- JPG, PNG, WebP or AVIF. AVIF is only offered when your browser can create it.

- Fill for transparent areas
- JPG cannot be transparent, so choose the colour that replaces transparency.

- Build names from {name}, {n}, {width}, {height} and {date}.
- Location & camera data
- Always removed from exported files.
- Download
- One image downloads directly. Several download together as a ZIP.
Good to know

Questions
Why is the AVIF button disabled?
Creating AVIF depends on your browser. When it is not supported the button is turned off and WebP is the best alternative.
Is the convert to avif free?
Yes — completely free with no file-size limit, because your own device does the work.
Are my images uploaded?
No. Your images are processed in your browser and never leave your device unless you save them to Studio.
Can I do many images at once?
Yes. Drop a folder or select many files — settings apply to the whole batch, and you can download everything as a ZIP.
