Step by step
How to rotate an image
Step 1: Drop a JPG, PNG or WebP image on the box above, or select Choose file.
Step 2: Choose a rotation, a flip or both. 90° right turns it clockwise.
Step 3: Select Rotate image, then Download image and check the preview.
Rotating and flipping
Rotate turns the whole image by a quarter or a half turn: 90° right is clockwise, 90° left is anticlockwise, and 180° turns it upside down. Flip mirrors the picture: left to right, as in a mirror, or top to bottom. You can combine a rotation with a flip in one go.
Phone photos often carry a hidden note that tells viewers which way is up. The tool first shows the photo the way your phone meant it, then applies your rotation, and saves the result into the pixels themselves, so it looks the same in every app, even ones that ignore that note.
Format and quality
The image keeps its format: a JPG stays a JPG, a PNG stays a PNG with its transparency. PNG images are saved without compression artefacts. JPG and WebP images are saved again at a high quality, so a rotated photo looks the same to the eye, but the file size can change a little.
Camera details stored in the original file, such as the date or location, are not copied to the rotated image.
Private
The rotation happens inside your browser tab. Your image is never uploaded, and the original on your device is not changed.
