How to rotate or flip an image
- 01
Open the image
Upload one supported image up to 50 MB and select the required frame.
- 02
Set the orientation
Use Left or Right, enter an angle, or choose a horizontal or vertical flip.
- 03
Rotate and download
Choose PNG, JPEG or WebP, click Rotate Image and save the new copy.
Put an image in the orientation you need
Rotate Image turns the selected image frame by a quarter-turn or a precise angle. Horizontal and vertical flip controls also let you mirror the contents when that is the intended correction.

Fine-tune a small tilt
Adjust the angle when the image needs more than a quarter-turn.
Mirrored sources
Reverse an accidental mirror
Use a horizontal or vertical flip and check text and symbols carefully.
Features and controls
Use Left and Right for quarter-turns
Each click changes the angle by 90 degrees. Two quarter-turns correct an upside-down image.
Choose the reading direction
Check the actual text rather than relying on a filename or stored camera orientation. The preview shows the image orientation that will be processed.
A 90-degree rotation rearranges pixel positions without an arbitrary-angle interpolation. Output encoding still matters: JPEG uses lossy compression, while PNG and lossless WebP do not.
Choose a precise signed angle
Use the slider, degree field or 0.1-degree fine controls across the -180 to +180 degree range.
Rotation direction and extra borders
Positive values rotate clockwise and negative values rotate counterclockwise. For a small text tilt, Deskew Image also offers a detected-angle starting point.
The canvas expands to keep rotated corners visible. Non-right-angle rotations resample pixels, so check thin strokes and small text in the downloaded result.
Flip horizontally or vertically
Use the flip checkboxes to mirror the image along the chosen direction, independently of the rotation angle.
Mirroring and combined transformations
Flip horizontally reverses left and right; Flip vertically reverses top and bottom. Neither is a substitute for a normal 90-degree turn of sideways text.
When combining controls, the flips are applied before the rotation. Review words, logos and directional symbols to make sure the combined result is the one you intended.
Choose one frame or page
Open a still image or choose a frame from a supported animated or multipage source. Only that selected frame is exported.
Supported files and frame scope
PNG, JPG, JPEG, TIF, TIFF, BMP, GIF, WebP and HEIC are supported inputs. Open one file up to 50 MB. Files may contain up to 100 frames or pages; image dimensions and decoding limits also apply.
Frame navigation changes the image being edited. Saving a result does not preserve a whole animation, its timing or all pages of a multipage file. Choose each required frame separately.
Choose PNG, JPEG or lossless WebP
PNG is the default. PNG and WebP can keep transparency; JPEG uses a white background for transparent pixels.
Output quality and source preservation
PNG and lossless WebP avoid lossy encoding. JPEG is saved at its highest quality setting, but it is still a lossy format; it is not a lossless copy of the source.
The output is a new image. The original file stays unchanged, but the export does not preserve all original metadata or every source-format feature. Use a separate source copy when those details matter.
Supported files & processing
- Input
- PNG, JPG, JPEG, TIF, TIFF, BMP, GIF, WEBP, HEIC
- Output
- PNG, JPEG, WebP
Open one supported image up to 50 MB, with no more than 100 frames or pages. Pixel dimensions and decoding limits also apply. Each run exports only the selected frame as a still image.
Your image uploads to our servers to prepare its preview and process the selected frame. These tools do not run OCR. Download the result you need and keep the original separately; see the Privacy Policy for file handling details.

FAQ
Before you start
Formats, selected frames and output quality explained.
Server processingHow do I rotate an image by 90 or 180 degrees?
Click Left or Right for a 90-degree turn. Click twice for a 180-degree turn, or enter the angle directly. Review the preview before saving.
What is the difference between rotating and flipping?
Rotation changes the direction the image faces. A flip mirrors its contents horizontally or vertically, which also reverses text and symbols.
Will rotating cut off the corners?
The output canvas expands to keep the rotated image visible. Arbitrary angles can add white or transparent corner areas, depending on the source and output format.
Which files and sizes can I use?
Open one PNG, JPG, JPEG, TIF, TIFF, BMP, GIF, WebP or HEIC image up to 50 MB. Files may contain up to 100 frames or pages, with additional pixel and decoding limits. Only the selected frame is saved as a still image.
Which download format should I choose?
PNG is the default and uses lossless encoding. Lossless WebP also preserves image detail and transparency. JPEG is saved at its highest quality setting but remains lossy, with white replacing transparent areas. The export is a new image, not an unchanged copy of the original file and its metadata.
Does this run OCR or change my original?
No OCR runs in this image tool. The file uploads for preview preparation and image processing, and the result is a separate image. You can continue to Image OCR when you need text; that tool has its own limits and verification.
