Description

The AVIF format is an image-based container format designed to store images or image sequences that are compressed with the AV1 compression algorithm. The format has been around since 2019 and is based on the HEIF container format, and as such, it competes with the HEIC image format.

During tests, the format has shown to perform better than JPG files, not just in the reduced file size but in overall image quality. Support for the format is growing and is already supported in the Chrome and Firefox web browsers. AVIF files can also be opened in many 2D image editing applications.
