JPG to AVIF Converter

Turn JPG photos into AVIF files that are often about half the size at the same visual quality - for the widest support make a WebP copy too.

How to convert JPG to AVIF

  1. Add your JPG files. Drop up to 50 JPG or JPEG photos into the box, or browse for them.
  2. Set the AVIF quality. Quality 65 looks like the JPG in most photos. Go higher for print-like detail, lower for tiny web images.
  3. Adjust if you like. Resize, pick Full colour for sharp red text, or rename the files. Every option starts closed and shows its value.
  4. Convert and download. Press Convert to AVIF. One or two files download directly, more than two come as a ZIP.

Tips for the best AVIF

  • Do not go too high. A JPG already lost some detail - quality above 80 mostly adds bytes, not detail.
  • Resize first if the photo will show at 1920 px or less - it saves far more than any quality setting.
  • Serve a fallback. Put the AVIF first and a WebP or the JPG second in a picture element.
  • Already have AVIFs? Shrink them further with Compress AVIF.
