About Image Rotation & Flipping
Rotating and flipping images is essential for correcting orientation issues. Photos taken in portrait mode often appear sideways when uploaded to websites. This tool lets you fix that instantly.
Horizontal flipping creates a mirror image — useful for fixing selfie mirrors, creating symmetrical designs, or adjusting composition. Vertical flipping inverts the image upside down, which is useful for reflection effects.
The rotation uses the Canvas API for lossless transformation. Unlike re-encoding, rotation simply rearranges pixel data, so there's zero quality loss regardless of how many times you rotate.
Key Features
Common Use Cases
- •Fix sideways photos from smartphones or cameras
- •Mirror selfie images to correct text and orientation
- •Create reflection effects for graphic design projects
- •Correct scanned documents that were placed upside down
- •Prepare images for print layouts requiring specific orientation
Frequently Asked Questions
Does rotating an image reduce quality?
No. Our tool uses Canvas-based rotation which rearranges pixels without re-encoding, resulting in zero quality loss.
What is the difference between rotate and flip?
Rotation turns the image around its center (90°, 180°, 270°). Flipping mirrors the image along an axis — horizontal flip creates a mirror image, vertical flip turns it upside down.
Can I rotate by a custom angle like 45 degrees?
This tool supports 90° increments for pixel-perfect rotation. Custom angle rotation would require interpolation which can reduce quality.
Why do my phone photos appear sideways?
Smartphones store orientation data in EXIF metadata rather than rotating the actual pixels. Some apps ignore this metadata, causing photos to appear sideways. Rotating here fixes the actual pixel orientation.
