Why Convert PNG to AVIF? The Ultimate Upgrade

PNG has been the king of transparent images for decades, but it's heavy. AVIF is the new challenger that knocks it off the throne.

AVIF offers everything PNG does—lossless modes, transparency, high bit-depth—but with compression algorithms that are 20 years more advanced. You can finally have high-res transparent graphics that load instantly on mobile networks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can AVIF replace PNG?

For web use, absolutely. AVIF supports transparency just like PNG but creates files that are drastically smaller. It also supports 10-bit and 12-bit color depth for better gradients.

How much space does AVIF save vs PNG?

A lot. While WebP saves around 30% vs PNG, AVIF can save 50-80% or more. A 500KB PNG banner often becomes a 40KB AVIF with no visible quality loss.

Is transparency preserved?

Yes. AVIF fully supports the alpha channel, meaning your transparent backgrounds stay transparent, and semi-transparent effects (like drop shadows) are improved due to less banding.

Does it support animation?

Yes! Just like GIF and APNG, AVIF supports animation (AVIS), and it's much more efficient than both.

What if a browser doesn't support it?

AVIF support is excellent (85%+ global), but you can easily use a fallback setup. The element lets you serve AVIF to modern browsers and PNG to ancient ones.
