Convert AVIF to PNG

Need a lossless, universally-editable copy of an AVIF image — for design tools, print, or because you need transparency preserved exactly? Convert on the way into your drive instead of a separate tool.

Why this works well

  • Lossless output — no further quality loss on top of the original AVIF encode
  • PNG opens in every design and editing tool, unlike AVIF which many still don't support
  • No separate converter site — the conversion happens on the way to your drive

How to do it

  1. Connect a destination cloud (Google Drive, Dropbox, or S3-compatible storage).
  2. Upload your AVIF files or transfer them from a connected drive.
  3. Pick PNG as the convert outcome.
  4. We stream the converted PNG into your drive.

FAQ

Is PNG actually lossless from an AVIF source?

The PNG encode itself is lossless — it faithfully reproduces the pixels decoded from the AVIF file. It can't restore detail the original AVIF encode already discarded.

Does this keep transparency?

Yes — if the source AVIF has an alpha channel, it carries through to the PNG output.

Is AVIF → PNG free?

Yes — image converts are included on the free tier within your transfer quota.
