Frequently Asked Questions
- Does converting AVIF to PNG preserve transparency?
- Yes. AVIF supports alpha channel transparency and PNG also supports it. Transparency is fully preserved during conversion.
- Why is my PNG larger than the original AVIF?
- PNG uses lossless compression storing every pixel exactly. AVIF uses advanced compression achieving much smaller files. PNG will be larger but contains full quality data suitable for editing.
- Can I open AVIF files in Photoshop?
- Photoshop added native AVIF support in version 26.8 (June 2025). Older versions require a third-party plugin. Converting to PNG ensures compatibility with any Photoshop version and enables the full export workflow including 'Save for Web'.
- Is PNG better than AVIF for editing?
- Yes. PNG is lossless — you can edit and re-save without quality degradation. AVIF is lossy by default, so it loses quality each time it is re-encoded. Use PNG for editing workflows.
- Will converting AVIF to PNG improve compatibility?
- Yes significantly. PNG is supported by every OS, browser, app, and image editor. AVIF support outside Chrome, Firefox, and Safari is still limited in 2026. Figma, Sketch, and older Photoshop versions cannot open AVIF.
- Can I convert multiple AVIF files to PNG at once?
- Yes. Convertify supports batch conversion — upload multiple AVIF files and download them all as PNG simultaneously.
- Should I use AVIF or WebP to replace PNG?
- AVIF for best compression — smaller files than WebP while supporting transparency. WebP if you need broader app and CMS compatibility. Both are significantly better than PNG for web delivery.
Why convert AVIF to PNG?
PNG is the universal lossless format. Every OS, every app, every image editor supports PNG natively. AVIF has limited support outside browsers — most desktop apps, social platforms, and design tools cannot open AVIF files. PNG preserves every pixel exactly and supports full transparency.
Does AVIF support transparency?
Yes — AVIF supports alpha channel transparency. When converting AVIF to PNG, transparency is fully preserved. This makes AVIF-to-PNG conversion ideal for logos, icons, and cutout images that need to work outside the browser.

How Convertify converts AVIF to PNG
Convertify uses Rust with libvips for fast, accurate conversion. Transparency from AVIF files is preserved in the PNG output. No account required, files deleted after download.
AVIF to PNG for design workflows
Designers frequently receive AVIF images from web sources or modern browsers and need to bring them into Figma, Sketch, Photoshop, or Illustrator. None of these tools support AVIF natively as of 2026. Converting to PNG gives you a file that opens instantly in any design tool, preserves transparency for compositing, and maintains full pixel quality for further editing. PNG is the standard interchange format between web and design workflows.
When to use PNG vs JPG after converting from AVIF
Choose PNG when your image has transparency, contains text or sharp edges, will be edited further, or needs to be re-saved multiple times without quality loss. Choose JPG when you need smaller files for sharing, email, or social media and the image is a photograph without transparency. PNG files are typically 3-5x larger than AVIF but contain lossless data — the right tradeoff when quality and compatibility matter more than file size.
File size: what to expect when converting AVIF to PNG
PNG uses lossless compression — every pixel is stored exactly. AVIF uses lossy compression by default, achieving dramatically smaller files. Converting from AVIF to PNG will increase file size significantly: a 200 KB AVIF photograph typically becomes a 1.5–3 MB PNG, a 3–8× increase depending on image complexity. This is expected and correct behavior — PNG is storing more data than the compressed AVIF. For simple graphics with flat colors, the increase is smaller. For photographs with fine detail, PNG files can be very large. If file size is a concern, consider JPG instead of PNG for photographic content; keep PNG for graphics, logos, and images with transparency.
Photoshop, GIMP, and AVIF support in 2026
Photoshop added native AVIF open/edit/save in version 26.8 (June 2025) — but AVIF is not yet available in the 'Export As' or 'Save for Web' dialogs, limiting its practical use in Photoshop workflows. Older Photoshop versions require a third-party plugin. GIMP has supported AVIF since version 2.10.22 (October 2020), making it the earliest major editor to adopt the format. Figma does not support AVIF natively — nor WebP for that matter — and requires plugins for either format. Sketch can import WebP but not AVIF. If you are working in any of these tools and receive AVIF files, converting to PNG is the reliable path to universal design tool compatibility.
