In short: Rotating or flipping an image turns it by 90° steps or mirrors it horizontally or vertically, and saves the corrected picture.
About Rotate & Flip Image
Photos taken with a phone held sideways, scans fed in upside down, and selfies that come out mirrored are all quick to fix — if you have the right tool to hand. This one rotates in 90° steps, mirrors horizontally or vertically, and straightens small tilts with a fine angle slider.
When you rotate by an arbitrary angle, the canvas grows to fit the whole image so no corners are cut off; the extra space is transparent in PNG output. Apply the same rotation to a batch of images and download them all as a ZIP.
How to use Rotate & Flip Image
- Choose or drop one or more images. The first is shown as a preview.
- Use the 90° and flip buttons, and the slider for small angle corrections.
- Press Download for the previewed image.
- Or press Apply to all to process every image the same way.
Examples
Press ⟳ 90° right once and download.
Front cameras often mirror text on signs and shirts. Press Flip horizontal to make it readable again.
Frequently asked questions
Does rotating by 90° lose quality?
The image is re-encoded once. Use PNG output for a lossless result.
Why are there transparent corners after fine rotation?
A tilted rectangle needs a bigger canvas. Crop afterwards with the Crop Image tool to remove them.
Is EXIF orientation respected?
Yes. Modern browsers apply the camera’s orientation tag when decoding, so the preview shows the image the way your phone does.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser. You can check this yourself: open your browser’s developer tools, switch to the Network tab and use the tool — no request carries your input.
