Frequently asked questions
Why won't my AVIF files open everywhere?
AVIF is newer, and some older apps, devices and editors can't open it. Converting to GIF makes them open on practically every device and app.
Will the GIF file be bigger or smaller than my AVIF?
Usually larger. GIF stores every pixel without further loss, but it can't restore detail already lost in the AVIF.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. ImgHint converts files in your browser, so your images never leave your device.
Is this converter free? Is there a file size limit?
It's free with no sign-up. Because conversion runs on your device, the practical limit is your device's memory.
