Convert AVIF to JPG and PNG
AVIF to JPG and AVIF to PNG: three free ways, and a whole folder at once
To convert AVIF to JPG for free, open the image in an app that reads AVIF and export it. On a Mac, open it in Preview and choose File, Export, Format: JPEG. On Windows, install the free AV1 Video Extension from the Microsoft Store, open the image in Paint and save it as JPEG. GIMP 3 does it on all three systems. For a whole folder, Convert Images in AwaCut converts every file at once.

Mistakes when converting AVIF
Renaming .avif to .jpg
A new name does not change the file inside, and many apps then refuse it. Convert it instead.
Choosing JPG for an image with transparency
AVIF can have transparent areas and JPG cannot. Choose PNG to keep them.
Expecting a smaller file
AVIF is among the smallest image formats. The JPG will be larger; convert because an app needs it, not to save space.
Why you get AVIF files
Websites serve AVIF because the files are small and pages load faster, so a saved image is often .avif. Browsers read it, but many editors, shops and older apps still ask for JPG or PNG. A converted copy solves that.
Try it on your own photos: the first 10 are free, no account.

Frequently asked questions
How do I convert AVIF to JPG on Windows?
Install the free AV1 Video Extension from the Microsoft Store, open the file in Paint and choose File, Save as, JPEG picture. For a whole folder, drop it on Convert Images in AwaCut.
Can I convert many AVIF files at once?
Yes. Convert Images in AwaCut converts a folder in one run on Mac, Windows and Linux. With ImageMagick: for f in *.avif; do magick "$f" "${f%.avif}.jpg"; done.
Does AVIF to JPG lose quality?
A little, as every JPG does. At a high quality setting you will not see it. Choose PNG to keep every pixel.
Can it convert HEIC to JPG too?
On a Mac, yes: Convert Images in AwaCut reads HEIC and writes JPG, a whole folder at once. On Windows and Linux it does not read HEIC. For a single photo on a Mac, Preview also exports HEIC as JPG for free.
How do I convert WebP to JPG?
The same way: drop the WebP files or their folder on Convert Images, pick JPG and export. JPG has no transparency, so for WebP images with a transparent background choose PNG instead.
Can I convert a WebRip to JPG?
WebRip is a video copy, not an image format, so no image converter opens it. Save a frame with your video player first, for example with Take Snapshot in VLC. If you meant WebP, Convert Images turns a folder of WebP into JPG in one run.
How do I convert Portable Network Graphics to JPG?
Portable Network Graphics is the full name of PNG. Drop the PNG files or their folder on Convert Images and pick JPG. JPG has no transparency, so transparent areas get white or a colour you choose.
Can I convert TIFF to JPG or BMP to JPG?
Yes. Convert Images reads TIFF and BMP on Mac, Windows and Linux and writes JPG, PNG, WebP or JPEG XL, a whole folder at once. The first 10 photos are free, then one yearly licence covers as many as you want.
Convert a folder of AVIF images
Convert Images has 10 free photos on each computer, then one yearly licence for as many photos as you want, with Remove Background included.
