Format description

HEIC is a new graphics format, containing one or more images stored in the High Efficiency Image Format (HEIF). This format, which is more efficient than JPEG, is heavily pushed by Apple on iOS and MacOS.
However, other operating systems may not be able to open such files, so it is a good idea to convert to another image format with wider adoption (JPG, PNG, or more efficient ones like WebP, JXL, or AVIF) when sending a photo from an iPhone, for example.

Format description

BMP files, also known as bitmap image files, are uncompressed raster images. They contain a file header with a bitmap identifier, width, height and color settings among other information, as well as bitmap pixels with different colors.
Because of the lack of any compression, BMP files often have a relatively large file size. Therefore, it may be beneficial to convert such images to newer, better-optimized formats like WebP and AVIF.
