- Limited consumer-app support
- Slower to encode/decode
Best for: Archival, medical and cinema imaging — converted to JPG or PNG for everyday sharing.

Strengths
- Lossless — perfect, repeatable quality
- Full transparency (alpha channel)
- Crisp text, lines and flat colour
Limitations
- Larger files than JPG for photos
- No native animation
- Not ideal for large photographic images
Best for: Logos, icons, screenshots and any graphic that needs transparency or pixel-perfect edges.
