Free Image Rotator
Rotate and flip local images in the browser when orientation is wrong before upload or publishing.
Fix image orientation locally before upload or publishing.
About this tool: Free Image Rotator
Rotate and flip local images in the browser when orientation is wrong before upload or publishing. No upload required — everything runs locally in your browser for privacy and speed.
Common use cases
- Use 90-degree steps for phone photos with wrong orientation.
- Flip only when the subject or text is mirrored.
Rotating and flipping an image
Rotation looks trivial until a photo arrives sideways from a phone, or a scan comes in mirrored. Fix the orientation by rotating the pixels rather than relying on metadata the next tool may ignore.
Fixing orientation properly
- 1
Rotate the pixels, not just the flag
EXIF orientation is metadata, and plenty of pipelines strip it. A baked-in rotation cannot be lost.
- 2
Rotate in 90-degree steps when you can
Right angles re-map pixels exactly and cost no quality; arbitrary angles must resample the whole image.
- 3
Re-check anything containing text
A mirrored image looks plausible until you notice reversed text, which is the usual give-away on scanned documents.
Image rotation questions
- Why does my photo look sideways in one app and fine in another?
- One reads the EXIF orientation tag and the other ignores it. Rotating the pixels settles the argument.
- Does rotating reduce quality?
- At 90-degree steps, no. At arbitrary angles the image is resampled and softens slightly.
- Is it local?
- Yes. Rotation runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded and no credits are spent.
