Steps
- Open /tools/avif-to-png.
- Choose a .avif file within the shared limits.
- Select Convert & download and save the .png.
Container validation and decode
Files must include an avif or avis brand and decode in the browser. HEIC-only brands and renamed non-AVIF files are rejected. Decode failure shows a clear compatibility error.
Transparency and animation
When the decoded frame includes alpha, PNG keeps those transparent pixels. Animated AVIF converts only the first decodable frame.
