Rotate and Flip Images Online

Sometimes photos are taken in the wrong orientation, or you need to mirror an image for a specific purpose. Our free rotate and flip tool makes it easy to correct image orientation without installing any software.

If you also need to trim or resize, use the image cropper or image resizer alongside rotation.

Rotation Options

  • Rotate Right (90°): Rotate the image clockwise by 90 degrees
  • Rotate Left (270°): Rotate the image counter-clockwise by 90 degrees
  • 180° Rotation: Turn the image upside down

Flip Options

  • Flip Horizontal: Mirror the image left-to-right, like a reflection in a mirror
  • Flip Vertical: Mirror the image top-to-bottom, like a reflection in water

Common Use Cases

  • Fix sideways photos: Correct images that were taken with the phone rotated
  • Create mirror images: Flip images for design purposes or to fix selfie orientation
  • Correct scanned documents: Fix upside-down scans
  • Photo editing: Prepare images for creative projects

Live Preview

When you upload a single image, you'll see a live preview of your changes before applying them. This helps you get the exact orientation you want before downloading.

Batch Processing

Need to rotate multiple images the same way? Upload them all at once and apply the same rotation or flip to all of them. Download them individually or as a ZIP file.

Privacy Guarantee

All image processing happens directly in your browser. Your photos are never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy.

Supported Image Formats

Our rotate and flip tool works with all common image formats including JPG/JPEG, PNG, WebP, and GIF. The output will be in the same format as your input image, preserving quality and compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will rotating affect image quality?

For 90°, 180°, and 270° rotations, there is no quality loss because these are simple pixel rearrangements. The image data remains intact. Only arbitrary angle rotations (which we don't support) would potentially affect quality.

What's the difference between rotate and flip?

Rotating turns the image around its center point, changing its orientation. Flipping creates a mirror image - horizontal flip mirrors left to right, while vertical flip mirrors top to bottom.

Can I combine rotation and flipping?

Yes! You can apply multiple transformations to your image. For example, you might rotate an image 90° and then flip it horizontally. The preview shows you exactly what the result will look like before you download.

Why are my phone photos sideways?

Modern phones use EXIF orientation data to display photos correctly. Some applications ignore this data, showing photos in their raw orientation. Our tool lets you permanently fix the orientation by rotating the actual pixels.
