AVIF was created by Alliance for Open Media in 2019 and is best for next-gen web images, HDR photos. Converting BMP to AVIF gives you a file that works in the tools and platforms where AVIF is required. BMP files can be a problem when their support is limited — converting to AVIF solves compatibility issues.
