PNG to AVIF
Convert PNG images to tiny AVIF files in your browser — files never leave your device.
Lower values = smaller file, more compression. 85 is a good default.
About the PNG to AVIF
PNG files are lossless and often very large, which hurts page speed. AVIF can store the same image — transparency included — at a fraction of the size using modern AV1 compression. Handytool converts PNG to AVIF entirely in your browser, so you can optimize graphics and web assets without ever uploading them.
PNG to AVIF features
- 01
Massive size reduction
AVIF routinely produces files far smaller than PNG, often by 60% or more for photographic content, while still supporting transparency.
- 02
Transparency preserved
AVIF has a full alpha channel, so transparent PNGs such as logos and icons keep their transparency after conversion.
- 03
Choose lossy or near-lossless
The quality slider lets you pick aggressive compression for the smallest files or a high setting when you need near-lossless fidelity.
PNG to AVIF FAQ
- How do I convert PNG to AVIF?
- Drop your .png files onto the upload area (or click Choose files), set the quality slider, then click Convert. Download the AVIF images individually or all at once.
- Why convert PNG to AVIF?
- AVIF stores the same image at a fraction of a PNG's size while keeping transparency, which makes pages load faster and saves bandwidth on graphics-heavy sites.
- Does PNG to AVIF keep transparency?
- Yes. AVIF supports an alpha channel, so transparent areas of your PNG remain transparent after conversion.
- Will I lose quality going from PNG to AVIF?
- PNG is lossless, so a lossy AVIF encode does introduce some loss. At a high quality setting it's imperceptible; for graphics with hard edges and text, use a high setting or near-lossless mode.
- Which browsers support AVIF?
- Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera, and Safari 16+ display AVIF, covering the large majority of users. Provide a PNG or WebP fallback for the small share of older browsers.
