How do I convert AVIF to JPEG?

Upload your AVIF file using the box above, confirm JPEG as the output format, then select Convert. The converted file is ready to download as soon as processing finishes — usually in a few seconds.

Is converting AVIF to JPG free?

Yes, and there is nothing to sign up for. Every conversion route is free on every plan — paying raises limits such as file size and how many conversions you get, and removes advertising. It never unlocks a format, adds a watermark or degrades the output.

Will the quality change when converting to JPEG?

JPG uses lossy compression, so some data is discarded to keep the file small. The default quality setting is tuned to be visually or audibly transparent for most material, and you can raise it in the conversion settings.

What happens to my file afterwards?

The uploaded file is deleted as soon as the conversion completes, and the converted file is removed automatically once its retention window ends. Download links are signed and expire within minutes.

About AVIF and JPG

AVIF .avif

A modern image format derived from the AV1 video codec. It compresses harder than JPEG or WebP at the same visual quality, and handles wide colour and high dynamic range.

Good for

The smallest files of any format here at a given quality
Transparency, animation, wide colour gamut and HDR
Holds up better than JPEG at very low bitrates

Trade-offs

Support is newest — older browsers and many desktop apps cannot open it
Encoding is slow compared with JPEG
Fine detail can smooth over at aggressive settings

image/avif

JPEG .jpg

The photographic standard since 1992. JPEG throws away detail your eye is least likely to miss, which is why a photograph saved as JPEG is a fraction of the size of the same image saved losslessly.

Good for

Opens everywhere — no format is more widely supported
Very small files for photographs and other continuous-tone images
A quality dial, so you choose the trade against file size

Trade-offs

Lossy: detail is discarded permanently, and re-saving repeatedly compounds it
No transparency at all
Sharp edges, flat colour and text pick up visible halos

What changes when you convert AVIF to JPG

Transparency is flattened

AVIF carries an alpha channel and JPG has none, so anything transparent has to become a solid colour. We composite onto white. If the image was designed to sit over a coloured background, convert to a format that keeps alpha instead — or expect a white box around it.

Only the first frame survives

Most AVIF files are still images and convert straightforwardly. AVIF can also hold an animation, though, and JPG cannot: if yours is animated, what you get back is its first frame and nothing else. Convert to a video format, or to another animating image format, if the motion matters.

Camera data is removed by default

A AVIF straight from a phone or camera carries EXIF metadata — model, settings, timestamp and, quite often, the GPS coordinates of where the photo was taken. The converted JPG is written without it, so a file you are about to share does not quietly carry your location. The orientation flag is read and applied to the pixels first, so the image will not come out sideways once the tag holding it is gone. If you need the metadata kept, there is a setting for it.

How the JPG is written

Our default is quality 82 through mozjpeg, written progressively so it renders in passes over a slow connection. The quality control on the converter moves this if you need to — the default aims to be indistinguishable from the source at a sensible file size, rather than to win a compression benchmark.
