Rotate Image

Photos sometimes come out sideways or upside down, especially scans, pictures taken with the phone held at an angle, or images exported by older software that ignores orientation data. This tool turns them the right way up: rotate 90° left, 90° right or 180°, and flip them horizontally or vertically if you also need a mirror image.

Add as many images as you like and rotate each one separately or apply the same turn to all of them. Live thumbnails show the result before you save, and files keep their original format. Rotation is calculated by your browser, so there is no upload and no waiting for a server.

How to use the Rotate Image tool

1. Add one or more images using Choose files or drag and drop.
2. Use the rotate buttons on a thumbnail to turn that image, or the buttons at the top to rotate all images at once.
3. Check the live thumbnails until every photo is the right way up.
4. Click Save and download each image or all of them as a ZIP.

Why photos appear sideways

Cameras and phones usually save the picture in the sensor’s fixed orientation and add an EXIF “orientation” tag that tells apps how to display it. Most modern apps respect the tag, but some websites, older programs and email clients ignore it, so the same photo can look upright on your phone and sideways elsewhere.

This tool reads the orientation first, then applies your rotation and saves the pixels the right way round. The saved file no longer depends on the tag, so it displays correctly everywhere.
