Turn .avif logos, icons and cut-outs into PNG files that keep their transparent background. Free, and nothing is uploaded.
AVIF to PNG is what you need when the image has a transparent background. Websites now often serve logos, icons, stickers and product cut-outs as AVIF because the files are tiny. Once you save one, you might want to put it on a slide, a poster, a T-shirt mock-up or a video thumbnail, and that means the background must stay see-through. Converting to JPG would fill it with white. This AVIF to PNG converter keeps the transparency, keeps every decoded pixel and gives you a file almost every program accepts. It runs in your browser, so you can convert AVIF to PNG on Windows, Mac or a phone with up to 30 files at once. Below you will find how the converter works, how big the PNG will be, how to check that the transparency survived, and when PNG is not the best choice.
The page asks your browser’s built-in AVIF decoder to open the file. The decoded picture, including its transparency (the alpha channel), is drawn at full size onto an empty, see-through canvas. Unlike JPG output, nothing is painted behind it. The canvas is then saved as PNG, which is lossless: there is no quality setting, so the Quality slider disappears when PNG is selected. If the AVIF is animated, the first frame is used.
Worked example (measured and computed). In our own Chrome test, a 600 × 900 AVIF photo of 21.8 KB became a 100.1 KB JPG at 92% quality (measured). For PNG, the starting point is the raw picture: 600 × 900 pixels × 4 bytes (red, green, blue and transparency) = 2,160,000 bytes, about 2.16 MB (computed). PNG’s lossless compression makes the real file smaller than that, by how much depends on the picture. A busy photo stays big; a logo with large flat areas shrinks a lot. That is why PNG is ideal for graphics and heavy for photos.
Drag up to 30 AVIF files onto the box, click it to choose them, or paste a copied image with Ctrl+V.
PNG is lossless, so there is no quality slider. Under More options you can switch to JPG or WebP if you need to.
Save each PNG with Download, or the whole batch with Download all (ZIP).
See-through areas stay see-through, including soft edges and shadows, so a logo sits cleanly on any background.
The decoded picture is stored exactly as PNG. You can edit it and save it again without adding new loss.
PNG works in design tools, slide programs, editors and forms that don’t accept AVIF yet.
The AVIF to PNG converter uses your browser’s own decoder. Free, no watermark, no limit.
Yes. PNG has stored transparency for decades, including partial transparency, so soft edges, drop shadows and glows stay smooth instead of getting a hard white rim. To check the result:
Transparency only stays if it was there to begin with. A normal photo saved as AVIF has a background, and the PNG will too. This tool does not remove backgrounds.
AVIF is one of the most efficient image formats; PNG is designed to be exact, not small. The chart puts one real example side by side:
For graphics, PNG can even beat JPG. In our own test, an 800 × 600 transparent PNG logo was 4.5 KB, and the same logo as JPG was 17.3 KB, almost four times bigger, with white corners. Flat colours and sharp edges are exactly what PNG compresses well.
If your PNG is a photo and it is too heavy, either keep it as JPG with AVIF to JPG, or make it smaller in pixels with the image resizer (choose PNG output there to keep the transparency).
| Image | Best output | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Logo or icon with transparent background | PNG | Keeps transparency and crisp edges, small file |
| Product cut-out or sticker | PNG | Ready to place on any background |
| Screenshot, chart or diagram with text | PNG | No fuzzy halos around letters and lines |
| Image you will edit in several rounds | PNG | Saving again adds no new loss |
| Ordinary photo to share or upload | JPG | Much smaller; forms accept it |
| Transparent image for your own website | WebP | Keeps transparency and is far smaller than PNG |
The tool needs a browser that can read AVIF: Chrome 85 or newer, Firefox 93, Safari 16.1 or Edge 121, according to MDN. On a Windows PC, open the page in Chrome or Edge and drag the files from Downloads. On a Mac, any of Safari, Chrome or Firefox works; drag from Finder. On Android, use Chrome and tap the box. On an iPhone or iPad, use Safari on iOS 16 or newer and choose the file from Files. The PNG is saved to your normal downloads in every case. Converting many logos for a project? Drop them all at once and use Download all (ZIP).
There is usually no “Save as PNG” option in the browser: right-click, Save image as, gives you the AVIF the site sent. The quickest route is to save the AVIF, drop it here, and download the PNG. You can also copy an image and paste it into this page with Ctrl+V. Pasting hands over whatever your browser put on the clipboard, which is usually a PNG version already, and the tool then saves it as PNG again.
Typical online AVIF to PNG converters upload your image, convert it on a server and send back the PNG, which can be a hundred times larger than the AVIF you sent. This converter skips the server. Your browser already has an AVIF decoder, because it uses it to show images on websites. The page asks it to decode your file, draws the picture on a transparent canvas and saves a PNG with the browser’s own encoder, straight to your disk. Nothing travels over the internet, so there is no waiting for big downloads and nothing is stored anywhere. After the page has loaded it works offline.
It is also honest about what PNG costs. Each row shows the size before, the size after and the pixel size, and you can switch between PNG, JPG and WebP under More options to compare on your own files. Copy summary copies those numbers; Copy link with these settings saves your chosen output in a link.
The tool measures the original file size, the decoded width and height, and the size of the PNG, and shows them in the list. The numbers on this page come from our own tests with this tool in Chrome in October and November 2026, or are computed from pixel counts where we say so.
What we do not do: we don’t remove backgrounds, sharpen, upscale or retouch, we don’t keep metadata, and we can’t create AVIF files. We don’t collect anything about the images you convert.
| VidHaul | Typical upload-based sites | |
|---|---|---|
| Upload needed | No, uses your browser’s own decoder | Yes, every file |
| Getting the large PNG back | Instant, it is made on your device | Must download it from the server |
| Batch | Up to 30, ZIP download | Often limited on free plans |
| Watermark | Never | Sometimes on free plans |
| Sign-up | Not needed | Sometimes needed for more files |
| Works offline after loading | Yes | No |
| Privacy | Files never leave your device | Files are usually kept on a server for a while |
Have .webp files too? WebP to PNG works the same way.
Only convert images you own or have the right to use. Logos and product photos usually belong to someone else.
Drop the .avif image into the box on this page. PNG is already selected, so the PNG is ready straight away; click Download or Download all (ZIP).
Yes. PNG stores transparency, so transparent areas in the AVIF stay transparent, including soft half-transparent edges.
Yes. There is no cost, no sign-up and no watermark, and you can use it as often as you need.
Saving from a website gives you the AVIF the site sent. Save it, drop it into this page and download the PNG it makes.
AVIF throws away detail you can’t easily see to stay tiny; PNG keeps every pixel. For photos the PNG can be many times bigger, for flat logos much less so.
Open this page in Chrome on Android or Safari on iOS 16 or newer, tap the box and pick the file. The PNG goes to your downloads.
No. Browsers can read AVIF but not save it, so this tool converts AVIF to PNG, JPG or WebP only.
