Convert WebP to AVIF
Drop WebP files and download them as AVIF. Both formats support transparency, which is preserved. Conversion runs on your device, so large batches finish in seconds and nothing is uploaded.
How to use the WebP to AVIF
- Drop or paste your WebP files (up to 200).
- Set the AVIF quality (90 is visually lossless).
- Click Convert to AVIF.
- Download each file or all as a ZIP.
Why convert WebP to AVIF?
WebP, developed by Google, stores photos 25–35% smaller than JPEG at equal quality and also supports lossless mode, transparency and animation. All current browsers open it; some desktop apps and older CMS uploaders still refuse it.
AVIF is based on the AV1 video codec and typically beats WebP by another 20–30% at the same quality, with transparency and HDR support. Browser support is universal since 2024, but many image editors, email clients and upload forms do not accept it yet.
What changes in the conversion
Both formats are lossy. Each re-encode discards a little more detail, so convert from the original where possible and keep quality at 85 or above. Both formats support transparency, which is preserved. Animated WebP files are converted to a still image of the first frame.

How it works on your device
Your browser decodes the WebP file into raw pixels, draws them onto a canvas and asks its built-in encoder to write AVIF (Chrome and Edge; Firefox and Safari cannot yet write AVIF and the tool will say so). Nothing is sent to a server, which is why there is no file-size limit beyond your device's memory and no queue.
