About Rotate Image

Rotate Image fixes sideways photos, changes orientation and creates mirrored versions. You can rotate in 90-degree steps, flip horizontally or vertically, preview the change and choose the output format.

Common use cases

Fix camera orientation

Turn a photo left, right or 180 degrees when it was captured or exported in the wrong orientation.

Mirror graphics

Flip an image horizontally for layout, comparison or design use.

Correct scanned pages

Rotate a scanned document image before OCR or PDF creation.

How it works

1

The browser decodes the source image into pixels.

2

A rotation or horizontal/vertical flip transform is applied to the pixel canvas.

3

The transformed image is encoded as a new output file.

Privacy & file handling

Rotation and flipping are local

The image transformation runs entirely in the browser for supported files; no upload is required for this operation.

Limitations and important notes

  • Rotation changes orientation but does not deskew a slightly tilted document by arbitrary angles unless that control is provided.
  • Repeated lossy re-encoding can reduce quality when exporting as JPG.
  • Flipping changes left-right or top-bottom orientation and can make text unreadable or reversed.

  • A 90° or 270° rotation swaps the image width and height.
  • Horizontal flip creates a mirror image.
  • PNG is preferable when you need to preserve transparency.

Frequently asked questions

Can I rotate an image 180 degrees?

Yes. Apply a 90-degree rotation twice.

What is horizontal flip?

It mirrors the image from left to right.

Does rotating reduce image quality?

The image is re-encoded when downloaded. JPG and WebP quality can be adjusted; PNG output is lossless.
