What changes in this conversion

  • Converting to ICO stops any further quality loss, but it cannot restore image detail already discarded by AVIF. The file will usually get larger.
  • ICO holds a single frame, so only the first frame of the animation is kept.
  • ICO opens almost everywhere, so the converted file will work on devices and programs that refused the original AVIF.

How to use

  1. Add your AVIF file

    Drag the AVIF file onto the drop area above, or click it to pick a file from your device. You can add several files at once.

  2. Confirm ICO as the output

    ICO is already selected as the output format on this page. You can set the output width and height. Quality stays untouched because this format is lossless.

  3. Run the conversion

    Press the convert button. A single image is usually done before you finish reading this sentence.

  4. Download the ICO file

    When it finishes, download the ICO file. Converting multiple files gives you the option to download them together as a ZIP.

Frequently asked questions

Is converting AVIF to ICO really free?

Yes. AVIF to ICO conversion is completely free with no signup, no watermark, and no daily limit on the free plan for ordinary use.

Are my AVIF files uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so the AVIF file never leaves your device. That is also why it works without an internet connection once the page has loaded.

What happens to the animation when I convert AVIF to ICO?

ICO stores a single frame, so only the first frame is kept. To preserve motion, convert to an animated format such as WebP or MP4.

Does the ICO file get bigger than the AVIF?

It can go either way. Both formats are lossless, so nothing is thrown away — the size difference comes from how each one packs the same data.

Is there a file size limit for AVIF to ICO conversion?

The free plan handles files up to 200MB. Because processing happens on your own device, very large files depend on your computer's memory rather than a server quota.
