Fix a sideways photo, or mirror a selfie. Choose a turn or a flip, and download the corrected image.
How to use the Rotate Image
- Upload one or more images.
- Choose a turn or a flip.
- Download the result.
What to expect
Turn and mirror
Turn 90° left or right, or 180°, or flip the photo in either direction.
Several at once
Select many photos, and they all get the same change.
No quality slider
The photo keeps its full width and height after turning.
Rotating versus straightening
This tool turns photos in 90° steps. It doesn't straighten a slightly tilted picture by a few degrees. For pages in a PDF, use Rotate PDF.
Turn or flip?
| Option | What it does | Use it when |
|---|---|---|
| 90° right or left | Turns the photo a quarter turn | A photo is sideways |
| Upside down | Turns the photo halfway | A photo is upside down |
| Mirror left to right | Swaps left and right | Writing in a selfie looks backwards |
| Flip top to bottom | Swaps top and bottom | You want a reflection effect |
Saving your changes
JPG photos are saved again when turned, at high quality, so don't repeat it many times. PNG photos lose nothing. HEIC and other less common formats are saved as JPG or PNG, so that they open anywhere.
Frequently asked questions
How do I rotate a picture online?
Upload it, choose the direction and press the button.
Why does my photo look sideways on some apps?
Cameras store direction as a hidden note that some apps ignore. Saving it here builds the correct direction into the picture.
How do I un-mirror a selfie?
Choose Mirror left to right.
Are my photos kept?
Your files are only used for this job and are deleted from the server afterwards.
Can I rotate an iPhone HEIC photo?
Yes. It's saved as a JPG that opens anywhere.
