Rotate & Flip Image
Straighten a sideways photo or mirror an image in one click — rotate 90° left or right and flip horizontally or vertically, with a live preview and nothing uploaded.

Quick answer
To rotate or flip an image, upload it above, then use Rotate left or Rotate rightto turn it in 90° steps, or Flip horizontal / vertical to mirror it. The preview updates live; download when it looks right. Everything runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.
How rotating and flipping work
Both actions redraw your image onto a hidden HTML canvas using a transform. A rotationturns the canvas in 90° steps around its centre — and because a quarter turn swaps width and height, the output dimensions swap too. A flip mirrors the canvas along the horizontal or vertical axis. The file is then re-encoded from that canvas, all on your own device, so the process is instant and completely private.
When to rotate vs flip
Reach for rotate when a photo imported sideways or upside down and you need to set it upright. Reach for flipwhen you want a mirror image — for example, to face a portrait the other way, undo the mirror effect from a selfie camera, or create a symmetrical design. You can apply a rotation and a flip together; the preview always reflects the final combination.
Keeping quality intact
Rotating in 90° steps and flipping never resample your pixels, so there is no quality loss from the transform itself. To keep the file pixel-perfect, export as PNG; for a smaller file, choose JPG or WebP. If you also need to change the size, pair this with the image resizer or image cropper.
Frequently asked questions
Are my images uploaded to a server?+
No. Rotating and flipping happen entirely in your browser using the HTML Canvas API. The image is transformed and re-encoded on your own device, so it is never uploaded, stored or seen by anyone.
What's the difference between rotating and flipping?+
Rotating turns the whole image around its centre in 90° steps. Flipping mirrors it — horizontal flip swaps left and right (like a mirror), while vertical flip swaps top and bottom. You can combine both.
Can I fix a sideways photo from my phone?+
Yes. If a photo imported sideways or upside down, use Rotate left or Rotate right until it looks correct in the live preview, then download. The saved file keeps the corrected orientation.
Does rotating an image lose quality?+
Rotating by 90° or flipping is lossless — the pixels are just rearranged, not resampled. The only quality change comes from the output format: PNG stays pixel-perfect, while JPG and WebP re-encode at high quality.
Can I combine a rotation and a flip?+
Yes. The buttons stack, so you can rotate 90° and then flip horizontally, for example. The preview always shows the final result, and the downloaded file matches exactly what you see.
