Yes - AVIF converts to JPG.

You can do it right here with our free converter - no sign-up, and your file is deleted right after.

Upload your .avif to the converter above and download the .jpg; it is free and your file is deleted after converting. Keep in mind that both AVIF and JPG use lossy compression, so converting stacks two rounds of quality loss - the output may show slightly more artifacts than the source.

Why convert AVIF to JPG?

AVIF has good but not universal support - older software, many CMS platforms, and most print services still expect .JPG. JPG is accepted by virtually every app, camera system, and online service. The trade-off is file size: at similar visual quality a JPG is typically 2-3× larger than the AVIF.

How to convert AVIF to JPG

Preview (macOS) BUILT-IN

Open the .avif in Preview (macOS Ventura or later), choose File > Export, pick JPEG from the format list, and save.

GIMP OPEN-SOURCE

Open the .avif in GIMP, then use File > Export As, change the extension to .jpg, and set quality in the dialog.

XnView MP FREE

Open the .avif in XnView MP and use File > Export (or Shift+E) to save as JPEG; batch mode is available under Tools > Batch Convert.

Command line - ImageMagick CLI

Run magick in.avif out.jpg to convert; add -quality 85 to control JPEG compression.

Quality & what to watch

  • Both AVIF and JPG use lossy compression - converting stacks two rounds of artifacts; keep the original .avif if you may need to re-export.
  • AVIF supports transparency; JPG does not - transparent pixels become solid (usually white) in the .jpg, so use .png instead if transparency matters.
  • The .jpg is often 2-3× larger than the source .avif at similar visual quality - that is normal, not a tool error.

Frequently asked questions

Will I lose quality converting AVIF to JPG?
Yes - both formats are lossy, so converting applies compression twice. At quality 80-90 the visible difference is usually subtle for photos, but it exists; save the original .avif if you may need to re-export later.
Why is the JPG bigger than the AVIF?
AVIF compresses more efficiently than JPEG. A .jpg at comparable visual quality is typically 2-3× larger - this is expected and not a tool error.
What happens to AVIF transparency in the JPG?
JPG has no alpha channel, so transparent areas become solid color (usually white). Convert to .png instead if you need to preserve transparency.
Can I batch-convert multiple AVIF files to JPG?
Yes - XnView MP's batch converter handles folders of .avif files, and ImageMagick's mogrify -format jpg *.avif processes all files in a directory.
