What Is AVIF & What Is JPG?
Two formats, two eras — here's what sets them apart.
AV1 Image File Format
AVIF is a modern, royalty-free image format built on the AV1 codec. It delivers up to 50% smaller files than JPEG with HDR support, transparency, and wide color gamut — but only works in newer browsers.
Key Strengths
- 50% smaller files at the same visual quality
- HDR and wide color gamut support
- Backed by Google, Apple, Mozilla & Netflix
Joint Photographic Experts Group
JPG is the world's most universal image format, standardized in 1992. It uses lossy DCT compression to keep photo files small and is natively supported by every browser, OS, camera, printer, and platform in existence.
Key Strengths
- Works on every device and platform ever made
- Ideal for photos, email, and printing
- Accepted everywhere — social media, CMS, e-commerce

How the AVIF to JPG iPhone Converter Works
When you select an AVIF file on your iPhone, the converter uses the mobile browser's native AV1 image decoder — the same engine Safari and Chrome use to display AVIF images on websites. Here is what happens during the conversion on iOS.
- File Selection on iOS: When you tap Browse Files, iOS presents its native document picker. You can select AVIF files from your Photos library, the Files app, iCloud Drive, or third-party cloud storage connected to your iPhone.
- Mobile AV1 Decoding: Your iPhone's browser decodes the AVIF file using the AV1 decoder built into WebKit (Safari) or Blink (Chrome). On A14 and newer chips, this benefits from the Neural Engine and hardware media decoders.
- Canvas Processing: The decoded pixel data is rendered onto an HTML5 Canvas at the original camera resolution. Transparent regions are filled with white since JPG does not support alpha transparency.
- JPEG Encoding: The Canvas API compresses the image into JPEG format at 92% quality. This produces a file smaller than the original AVIF while maintaining visual quality suitable for sharing, printing, and social media.
- iOS Save Dialog: The converted JPG is generated as a local blob URL. Tapping Download triggers iOS's native share/save sheet, letting you save to Files, Camera Roll, or share directly via Messages, Mail, or AirDrop.
AVIF (iPhone) → WebKit AV1 Decode → Canvas Bitmap → JPEG Encode (92%) → Save to Files / Camera Roll The entire process runs on-device. No photo data leaves your iPhone, no cellular data is consumed for the conversion, and no cloud processing is involved.
