UlvixorAVIF to JPG Converter
Upload an AVIF image and convert it to JPG with a single click, directly in your browser using canvas. Handy because AVIF, being a relatively new format, isn't yet supported by many programs and platforms. The file is never uploaded to any server.
How it works
- Select a .avif image from your device using the file picker.
- The conversion starts automatically as soon as you select the file.
- The browser decodes the AVIF natively; since JPG doesn't support transparency, the tool paints a white background on the canvas before drawing the image on top.
- The canvas is re-encoded as JPG with canvas.toBlob().
- A preview of the result is shown with its dimensions and file size, ready to download.
Use cases
- Open AVIF images downloaded from modern sites in programs that don't yet support that format.
- Upload images to platforms, online stores, or social networks that only accept JPG.
- Share AVIF images with people whose browser or device can't display them.
- Prepare AVIF images for editing in desktop software with limited support for new formats.

Common mistakes
- Uploading an AVIF and having the tool show an error because the browser can't decode it.AVIF support depends on the browser: modern browsers (recent Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari) decode it natively, but older versions may not support it. Try an up-to-date browser if the conversion fails.
- Converting an AVIF with transparency to JPG and being surprised that the background turns white.AVIF can have an alpha channel, but JPG doesn't. The tool automatically fills transparent areas with white before encoding; if you need to keep the transparency, consider converting to PNG instead.
- Expecting the resulting JPG to weigh the same or less than the original AVIF.AVIF is usually the most efficient compression format available today, so it's normal for the resulting JPG to be heavier than the original AVIF, even with good visual quality.
Frequently asked questions
No. The conversion happens entirely in your browser. The original file is never sent to any server.
This tool depends on the browser being able to decode AVIF natively. Modern browsers support it, but older or less common browsers may not recognize the format. Try the latest version of Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Safari.
It's lost. JPG doesn't support an alpha channel, so the tool automatically fills any transparent area with a white background.
Because AVIF is currently one of the most efficient lossy compression formats, so it's common for the same image to be heavier once converted to JPG, even though the visual quality remains good.
Alternatives
Some recent image editors, like updated versions of GIMP, already support opening and exporting AVIF. This tool is handy if your software doesn't support it: you select the AVIF and get the JPG in seconds, directly in your browser with nothing to install.
