Why would anyone use such exotic unsupported format when there is WebP, AVIF or JPEG XL, which are all much more supported and better? It's shame they are not natively supported by most of the camera Android apps.

In my case, the year was 2017. Early 2017.

How many of those formats were available on all Android phones in 2017?

Answer: None.
