Converting PNG to BMP: what to know
PNG is converted to BMP for older programs, firmware and devices that understand only uncompressed images.
BMP can't store transparency: transparent areas are filled with white, and you can pick the color in the settings. The file becomes much larger than the PNG, although the picture stays the same.
PNG or BMP: which to choose?
PNG (Portable Network Graphics)
PNG stores images without quality loss and supports transparency, but photos in PNG are large.
Best for screenshots, logos, diagrams and any images with transparency or sharp text.
BMP (Windows Bitmap)
BMP is the Windows bitmap format, usually stored without compression and therefore very large.
Best for compatibility with old Windows programs and devices.
What happens when converting PNG to BMP
BMP does not support transparency: transparent areas of the PNG image are filled with white by default, another color can be chosen in the settings. To keep transparency, choose PNG or WebP instead.
EXIF metadata, including GPS location, is not copied, and the photo orientation is applied to the pixels.
PNG files up to 256 MB are supported; the actual limit also depends on the free memory of your device.
