Sometimes a photo just needs to be turned the right way up. Other times you need to flip a selfie or rotate by an exact angle for a design layout.

Rotating Images

Quick Rotations

One-click buttons for 90° clockwise, 90° counter-clockwise, and 180°.

Custom Angle

Enter any value from 0 to 360 degrees for straightening crooked photos or creating angled design elements.

When rotating by non-90° angles, the result will have transparent corners (PNG/WebP) or colored fill to stay rectangular.

Flipping Images

Horizontal Flip

Mirror left-to-right. Common uses:

  • Fix selfie mirror effect — Front cameras often mirror the image
  • Design composition — Flip subjects to face center of layout
  • Mirror effects — Merge flipped version with original for symmetry

Vertical Flip

Mirror top-to-bottom. Useful for reflection effects.

Fixing Phone Orientation

Smartphone photos sometimes display sideways on computers due to EXIF metadata. A quick 90° rotation fixes it permanently.

Tips

  • Rotate before cropping to straighten, then crop to clean edges
  • Check text — it should still be readable after transformation
