What TIFF to QOI conversion does
Convert a TIFF image to QOI (Quite OK Image) directly in your browser. QOI is a simple, fast, lossless image format popular in developer and graphics-programming workflows.
How to convert TIFF to QOI
- Choose a TIFF or TIF file.
- Select Convert & download.
- Save the .qoi file from your browser downloads.
Why use this conversion
QOI’s small, easy-to-implement specification makes it popular in tooling and pipelines that specifically read or write QOI, where fast encode/decode matters more than universal support.
Transparency and output quality
QOI supports a full alpha channel, and this tool preserves it from the source. QOI encoding is always lossless — every pixel from the source is reproduced exactly. Resulting file size is typically comparable to PNG.
Privacy and local processing
- Processing occurs locally in the browser.
- Files are not uploaded to Looty Tools for conversion.
- Converted files remain on your device.
Limits and known issues
- Input: TIFF (.tif, .tiff) only, up to 25.0 MB and 8,192 px per side.
- QOI is a developer-focused format with limited support in mainstream operating systems and browsers — it is intended for tooling and pipelines that read QOI directly.
- Multi-page TIFF: only the first page is converted to QOI. Additional pages are not extracted or included in the download.
- Metadata is not preserved in the downloaded file.

TIFF to QOI FAQ
- Why convert TIFF to QOI?
- QOI’s small, easy-to-implement specification makes it popular in tooling and pipelines that specifically read or write QOI, where fast encode/decode matters more than universal support.
- Is QOI output lossless?
- Yes. QOI encoding is always lossless — every pixel from the source is reproduced exactly.
- Does QOI output keep transparency?
- Yes. QOI supports a full alpha channel, and this tool preserves it from the source.
- Does this convert every page of a multi-page TIFF?
- No. Only the first page (IFD) is converted. Additional pages are not extracted or included in the download.
- Are my files uploaded?
- No. Conversion runs locally in your browser and does not upload your file to Looty Tools servers.
- What is validated before conversion?
- The file must actually be a TIFF — the tool checks the byte-order header (little-endian "II*" or big-endian "MM*"), not just the filename or extension, before decoding.
