About AVIF and PNG file formats

The AVIF (AV1 image file format) is a modern image format known for offering high compression efficiency while maintaining good image quality. However, not all devices and software fully support AVIF, which can create the need to convert it to more commonly supported formats like PNG. PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a widely used image format that supports lossless compression and is compatible with most devices and platforms. Here's a quick guide on how to convert an AVIF picture to PNG.

Convert AVIF to PNG online

One of the simplest ways to convert an AVIF image to PNG is through online conversion tools. Websites like Convertio and CloudConvert allow users to upload their AVIF files and convert them into PNG with just a few clicks. This method is ideal for small-scale conversions or if you don't want to install any software.

Convert AVIF to PNG using image editing software

Software like XnView MP, GIMP, or Adobe Photoshop support AVIF files and can be used to convert them to PNG. The easiest way is to use the free and multiplatform image viewer XnView MP. Also, after installing the AV1 codec plugin from Microsoft Store, the default Microsoft Windows Photos app can open AVIF images and save them to PNG.

• Open the AVIF file using your preferred software.
• Navigate to the "Export" or "Save As" option.
• Choose PNG as the output format and save.

This method is ideal for users who regularly work with image files and need more control over the conversion process. XnView MP also supports batch image conversions.

XnView MP does support AVIF files, but XnView Classic does not natively support this format. If you're using the Classic version, you won't be able to open AVIF files unless you use additional plugins or upgrade to XnView MP, which has built-in support for the AVIF format. To solve your issue, you must switch to XnView MP (the modern version), which allows you to open and convert AVIF files directly.
