Rotate Image

A 90° rotation just relocates existing pixels, so no detail is lost in the turn itself. The only re-encoding happens when you download; keeping the same format at high quality means the result is visually identical to the source.

At 90° and 270° a landscape image becomes portrait and vice-versa, so the dimensions naturally trade places. The tool resizes the canvas to fit the turned image exactly, which is why nothing is cropped.

This tool rotates in clean 90° steps, which is what fixes sideways or upside-down photos without distortion. Free-angle rotation would leave empty triangular corners and require cropping, so it is deliberately left out here.

Rotations add up, so four taps in the same direction return you to the original. You can also just reload the file with “Choose another” to start fresh at 0°.

No. Rotating turns the whole image around its centre; flipping mirrors it like a reflection. If text ends up backwards, you flipped instead of rotated — use the rotate buttons here for a true turn.

The browser applies the embedded orientation tag when it decodes the image, so what you see is already upright in most cases. This tool then lets you correct anything that still looks wrong and writes the orientation permanently into the pixels.

JPG, PNG and WebP. The download keeps the input format, and transparent PNG or WebP areas stay transparent. JPGs are flattened onto white because they have no alpha channel.

No. Rotation runs entirely in your browser with the Canvas API. Nothing is uploaded, and you can keep working offline once the page has loaded.

Only slightly. The pixel count is unchanged, but re-encoding can nudge the size up or down a little depending on the format and content. It is not a compression tool — use the image compressor if size is the goal.
