How to Convert AVIF to PSD

PSD is Photoshop's native format, and AVIF support within Photoshop has historically been inconsistent depending on the version and operating system, unlike long-established formats like JPG and PNG. Converting AVIF to PSD first sidesteps that uncertainty entirely, decoding the AVIF content and saving it as a single-layer PSD file that Photoshop opens natively without depending on whatever AVIF support a given installation happens to have.

This is mainly a workflow convenience for editing: once your AVIF image is in PSD format, you can begin adding adjustment layers, masks, or compositing elements on top of the original decoded image without any AVIF compatibility concerns.

1. Install Turbo Batch Image Converter Pro on your Windows PC.
2. Open the app and select Batch Mode for multiple files, or Individual Mode for a single AVIF file.
3. Drag your AVIF file or folder into the app window, enabling recursive folder scanning if needed.
4. Set the "From" format to AVIF and the "To" format to PSD.
5. Click Convert. PSD files are written to the output folder, fully offline.
