JPG, PNG, BMP, etc are all capable of being displayed fine on an iPhone.

Keep an eye out for:

  • If you are resizing the image (in either direction), it may lose detail.
  • If you are not using the full bit-depth - e.g. if you are only using 16 colours.
  • If you are highly compressing JPEG images, which is a lossy format.

Of course, if your source image looks bad, it will continue to look bad.
