JPEG, PNG, WebP or AVIF?

Choose formats based on content, transparency, compatibility and quality, rather than assuming one extension is always best.

JPEG

Widely supported lossy format, typically appropriate for photographs without transparency.

PNG

Lossless compression and transparency; useful for interface graphics, screenshots and crisp edges.

WebP

Offers lossy and lossless encoding with transparency support and often efficient file sizes for the web.

AVIF

Modern format with potentially high compression efficiency, subject to encoder speed and workflow compatibility.

What to choose?

Compare perceptual image quality at your real display size. Use the conversion category for future tool updates.
