About PNG to AVIF

PNG to AVIF converts your Portable Network Graphics (.png) files to AV1 Image File Format (.avif) directly in your browser using the browser's built-in Canvas 2D encoder. No signup, no watermark, no upload — your PNG stays on your device from start to finish. AV1 Image File Format is typically used for next-gen web images (50% smaller than JPEG), and Toolspace's converter preserves the source at the highest quality the target format allows.

What is PNG to AVIF best used for?

  • Quickly convert a PNG to AVIF without installing desktop software.
  • Handle confidential image files — nothing leaves your device.
  • Batch several files by re-running PNG to AVIF in the same tab (no upload delay between runs).
  • Prep images for a specific platform that requires AVIF (WhatsApp, Shopify, Instagram Ads, etc.).
