JPG to AVIF Converter

JPG (or JPEG) is a widely used image format known for its efficient compression methods. It is especially suitable for digital photography and web use due to its ability to significantly reduce file sizes while maintaining acceptable image quality. JPG supports millions of colors and is ideal for complex images like photographs. However, it uses lossy compression, meaning some quality is lost during saving. It is supported by virtually all devices and software.

AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a next-generation image format that offers high compression efficiency and quality, outperforming JPEG, PNG, and even WEBP. It supports HDR, transparency, and a wide color gamut. AVIF is ideal for web developers seeking to reduce load times without sacrificing visual fidelity. While still gaining support across platforms and software, AVIF is expected to become a major image format due to its performance and capabilities.
