Rotating and Flipping Photos Losslessly

Phones write orientation as metadata that some software respects and some ignores - hence photos that stand up in one app and lie down in another. Physically rotating the pixels ends the ambiguity.

How to use it

1. Open Rotate Image and choose the photo.
2. Pick 90°, 180°, 270° - or mirror it horizontally/vertically.
3. Process and download.

Try it now: open the Rotate Image tool - no account, no upload, free.

What happens under the hood

Pixels are remapped onto a rotated canvas and encoded once at full quality. Right-angle rotation is a lossless remapping of positions - nothing is interpolated or blurred.

Tips for better results

• Flip horizontal fixes mirrored selfies before they go anywhere official.
• Rotate before OCR or PDF assembly - downstream tools assume upright input.
