About Rotate & Flip Image
Phone photos arrive sideways, scans come in upside down, and selfies face the wrong way, the fixes are rotation and mirroring, not a photo editor. This tool rotates in 90-degree steps, flips horizontal or vertical, shows a live preview of every change, and downloads the corrected image in your chosen format.
Sticking to 90-degree steps is deliberate: those rotations and flips are lossless transforms, so the pixels are rearranged without being recompressed and the image stays perfectly sharp. That also makes this the reliable fix for EXIF orientation headaches, baking the rotation into the file works everywhere, while orientation metadata is ignored by some viewers.
What it won't do is arbitrary angles: there's no 45-degree option, because rotating off-axis forces resampling and softens the image. If you need a slight straightening, use a photo editor. For sideways, upside-down, or mirrored photos, this is faster and lossless.

Tips for best results
- Fix EXIF rotation permanently: bake the rotation into the file instead of relying on orientation metadata some viewers ignore.
- Flip selfies, don't rotate: a mirrored front-camera photo is fixed with one horizontal flip.
- Preview before downloading: check the live preview, it's easy to rotate the wrong direction on the first try.
- Choose format on download: PNG to keep things lossless, JPG for smaller photo files.
- Keep the original: download the corrected copy and archive the original in case you need it later.
