Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert ICO to AVIF?

ICO (Windows Icon) uses lossless (multiple sizes) encoding and is best for favicons and app icons — standard format for website bookmarks and Windows application icons. AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) uses lossy or lossless encoding and excels at next-gen web images — royalty-free format with better compression than WebP and JPEG. Converting between them lets you take advantage of each format's strengths — for example, using a compressed format for sharing and a lossless format for editing. All conversion happens locally in your browser with no file size limits.

Why AVIF from icons?

Icon libraries in AVIF load in a fraction of ICO bytes with transparency intact. Web apps serving dozens of icons feel the difference on slow networks.

Which icon size converts best?

Largest embedded size (usually 256px) — multi-resolution ICOs carry several; the tool takes the biggest for cleanest output.

Transparency preserved?

Yes — alpha channels carry into AVIF. Verify one icon on dark and light backgrounds before batching hundreds.

Do icon files upload?

No — conversion runs locally in your browser on Canvas. Only saves touch the network — downloads are unlimited.
