Rotate vs flip

Rotation turns the image around its center, which is useful for a sideways phone photo. A horizontal flip mirrors left and right, while a vertical flip mirrors top and bottom.

What happens to image dimensions?

A 90-degree or 270-degree rotation swaps the output width and height. A 180-degree rotation keeps them unchanged. The original image is never overwritten.

Choose the right export format

  • Use PNG when you need transparency or lossless graphics.
  • Use JPG for smaller photo files and broad upload compatibility.
  • Use WebP when the destination accepts it and you want a modern, compact image format.

Limitations

  • Rotation changes the orientation but does not remove unwanted edges; crop the result if you need a tighter frame.
  • Exporting to JPG removes transparency because JPG does not support transparent pixels.

Questions

How do I rotate an image online?

Choose an image, use the left or right rotate button, review the preview, and download the corrected file.

Can I rotate an image 90 degrees?

Yes. Each left or right rotation button turns the image by exactly 90 degrees.

What is the difference between rotating and flipping an image?

Rotating turns the image around its center. Flipping mirrors it across a horizontal or vertical axis.

Will rotating change the image dimensions?

A 90- or 270-degree turn swaps the width and height. A 180-degree turn keeps the same dimensions.

You can export the corrected image as PNG, JPG, or WebP.

Is my image uploaded when I rotate it?

No. Rotation, flipping, and encoding happen locally in your browser.
