Rotate Image Online Free — 90, 180, 270 Degrees Instantly
Rotate Images Online Free — Fix Any Orientation Instantly
Sideways or upside-down photos are a common problem — phones and cameras embed orientation in EXIF metadata but some platforms ignore it. Our free online image rotator permanently bakes the correct orientation into the pixels, so the image displays correctly everywhere: on any device, in any app, on any platform. Runs in your browser, nothing uploaded.
When You Need to Rotate an Image
Sideways phone photos: Portrait-mode photos that display landscape on Windows or in email. Upside-down scans: Documents or photos placed the wrong way on a scanner. EXIF ignored by platforms: Websites, forms, and older software that display the raw pixel orientation rather than reading the rotation metadata. Composition adjustments: Turning a landscape photo to portrait for vertical social media formats.
Rotation Options
Rotate 90° clockwise, 90° counter-clockwise, or 180°. For fine-tuning skewed scans, a custom angle option lets you straighten slightly tilted images. Rotating at exactly 90°/180°/270° is a lossless operation for PNG — for JPG, perfect 90° rotation can also be lossless.
Free, Private, No Account
All rotation runs locally in your browser. Your images are never uploaded. No watermarks, unlimited rotations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my photo sideways on Windows but correct on my phone?
Your phone reads the EXIF rotation metadata and displays the photo correctly. Windows sometimes ignores the EXIF data and shows the raw pixel orientation, which may be sideways. Rotating and re-saving bakes the correct orientation into the pixels permanently.
Does rotating a JPG reduce quality?
Rotating at exactly 90°, 180°, or 270° can be performed losslessly on JPG files (dimensions divisible by 8). Custom-angle rotation requires resampling, which applies a small amount of quality loss.
Can I rotate multiple photos at once?
Currently one image at a time. For batch rotation, process images individually using the same tool.
