Batch Convert AVIF to PNG Free — Multiple Files, No Upload Required
Table of Contents
Yes, the AVIF to PNG converter handles multiple files at once. Drop your entire folder of AVIF files onto the tool and it converts them all — one after another — without uploading anything to a server.
Batch conversion is especially useful for designers, web developers, and photographers who download or receive multiple AVIF files and need them all converted to PNG before importing into design software or submitting to clients.
How to batch convert AVIF files to PNG — step by step
- Open wildandfreetools.com/converter-tools/avif-to-png/ in your browser
- Drag all your AVIF files at once from File Explorer (Windows) or Finder (Mac) onto the drop zone — hold Ctrl (Windows) or Cmd (Mac) to select multiple files, then drag them all together
- The tool shows a count: "X files selected (Y total)"
- Click Convert — the tool processes each file sequentially
- Each PNG file downloads as it finishes — your browser will prompt for multiple downloads; allow them
Tip for downloading multiple files: Some browsers block multiple simultaneous downloads by default. When the first download prompt appears, look for an option to "Allow" or "Allow all downloads from this site" — this lets all PNGs download without individual approval prompts for each file.
How many AVIF files can you batch convert at once?
There is no hard limit set by the tool. In practice, the limit is your browser's available memory. Each AVIF file is decoded in memory during conversion — a typical 1MB AVIF expands to roughly 10-20MB of pixel data during processing. With 2GB of browser memory (typical on modern devices), you can comfortably process 30-50 files at once without issues.
For larger batches (100+ files), process in groups of 20-30 rather than all at once. This prevents browser memory warnings and keeps conversion speed fast. Each batch completes in 1-3 minutes depending on image sizes and your device speed.
File size note: Large AVIF files (5MB+) take more memory to decode because the uncompressed pixel data in memory is much larger than the file itself. For very large files, process them individually or in smaller batches.

Open Free AVIF to PNG ConverterFrequently Asked Questions
Can I drag and drop a folder of AVIF files to convert them all?
Most browsers support dragging individual files but not entire folders via drag-and-drop in web apps. Select all files with Ctrl+A in your file browser, then drag the selection onto the tool.
What is the maximum number of AVIF files I can batch convert?
There is no set maximum. The practical limit is browser memory — typically 30-50 files at once is smooth on most devices. Process in groups if you have hundreds of files.
Will the batch converted PNGs keep the same filenames?
Yes. Each converted PNG keeps the original filename with the extension changed to .png. Your image001.avif becomes image001.png.
How long does batch conversion take?
A typical AVIF file converts in 1-3 seconds. A batch of 20 files takes roughly 20-60 seconds depending on file sizes and device speed.
Do I need to convert AVIF files one at a time?
No. The tool supports multiple files at once. Select all your AVIF files and drop them together onto the tool.
