File extension wap seems to be mainly related to somewhat old graphics format, described at Wireless bitmap (level 0) image format.
The Wireless Application Protocol Bitmap Format (WBMP) has been designed for use with applications that operate over wireless communication networks.
The WBMP format is commonly used in mobile phones (WAP phones) and enables graphical information to be sent to the handset.
.WAP file format is deprecated and this file format is no longer supported.
Currently, .WAP file type is not actively used and is obsolete. This usually happens with system files in older operating systems, files from long-discontinued software, or with previous versions of some file types (documents, projects, images, etc.) that were replaced in later versions of the original programs.
