About Rotate & Flip Image
Use this tool to fix photos that appear sideways because of EXIF orientation, straighten a crooked scan, or mirror a selfie. Rotate in precise 90-degree steps for exact results, or enter any angle and the canvas is expanded automatically so no corner is clipped.
Flips mirror the image horizontally or vertically and can be combined with rotation. The result is exported at full resolution as PNG, JPEG or WebP, and because everything runs locally your images are never uploaded.
How to use Rotate & Flip Image
- Open your image
Drop a file onto the preview. Use the quick buttons to rotate 90° left or right, or flip horizontally and vertically.
- Fine-tune the angle
For crooked scans, type a custom angle such as 2.5°. The canvas grows to fit the rotated image so nothing is cut off.
- Save the result
Pick the output format and download. Orientation changes are baked into the pixels, so the file opens correctly everywhere.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my photo sideways on some websites?
Cameras often store the orientation in EXIF metadata rather than rotating the pixels. Some viewers ignore that tag and show the image sideways. Rotating here bakes the correct orientation into the pixels so it displays properly everywhere.
Does rotating lose quality?
Rotating by 90, 180 or 270 degrees is lossless because pixels are simply repositioned. Arbitrary angles use smooth interpolation, which slightly resamples the image; export as PNG if you want to avoid additional JPEG compression.
Can I straighten a scanned document?
Yes. Enter a small custom angle such as -1.5° or 2° and the image rotates around its centre with the canvas expanded to keep the full page visible. Crop afterwards to trim the empty corners if needed.
