Format description
The AV1 Image File Format (AVIF) is a new format which promises better compression and smaller file sizes than JPEG, PNG, WebP, and all other current image formats on the web. Based on the generic HEIF image format, AVIF supports alpha transparency, HDR, lossy and lossless compression. AVIF is already being used by Netflix and Microsoft.
Which browsers support AVIF and since when?
In 2024, all major browsers can render AVIF images. Support in Google Chrome and Chromium-based browsers (like Microsoft Edge, Brave, and Opera) has landed in late August 2020. Firefox can display AVIF images from version 93, released in October 2021. Apple's Safari can finally recognize and show AVIF images starting with iOS 16, released in September 2022.

Format description
GIF is a widely used image format which supports displaying animations. Its name is synonymous with short, silent, looping videos. However, due to limitations in the design of the GIF format, the animations cannot be very long or have lots of colors, without the file size becoming extremely large.
Optimize GIF Size
To make GIFs smaller in size without reducing quality, you can convert it to a newer, more efficient image format like WebP – which also supports looping animations. Alternatively, you can convert the GIF to a video.
Animated GIF Maker
MConverter lets you create GIF animations from videos. The resolution and frame rate of the original video will be kept, so you can make smooth 60fps GIFs. For greater compatibility, the maximum duration of the created GIF animation is 2 minutes.
Common questions about converting AVIF to GIF
Can I convert AVIF to GIF in bulk?
Yes, MConverter supports batch converting of multiple AVIFs to GIFs simultaneously. You can even drag and drop folders containing AVIFs to convert to GIF. Pasting AVIF files and folders copied in the clipboard also works: use Ctrl+V.
Can I convert an AVIF file to GIF, if its size is 2 GB?
Yes, with MConverter Pro you can convert big AVIFs, up to 2 gigabytes each. The free version lets you convert files up to 100 MB. If you need to convert AVIF files over 100 megabytes, try MConverter Pro. If your files aren’t over 1 GB, then you can use MConverter Plus instead, as it’s cheaper.
Is converting AVIFs to GIF safe with MConverter?
Yes, we encrypt your connection using industry standards. Plus, your AVIF files are only accessible by you. 4 hours after the conversion completes, they are automatically deleted from MConverter’s servers. You can also delete your AVIFs and other converted files immediately after finishing the conversion by clicking the bin icon.
