Canvas-based rotation preserves 100% image quality—no recompression or artifacts. Metadata stripped (including wrong EXIF orientation tags that caused sideways display). Pixel data rotated mathematically, not re-encoded.
90° clockwise: Portrait → Landscape right. 180°: Flip upside down (fix scanned docs inserted backwards). 270° clockwise (90° counter-clockwise): Landscape → Portrait. Chain rotations if needed—rotate multiple times to find correct orientation.
Phone photos display sideways despite correct shooting angle (EXIF orientation ignored by some apps). Scanned documents inserted upside-down. Screenshots from rotated monitors. Downloaded images with wrong orientation metadata. Camera raw files needing correction.
JPG/JPEG: Photos from cameras, phones, downloads. PNG: Screenshots, graphics, transparent images. WebP: Modern web format with smaller size. GIF: Animated/static graphics (rotation applies to first frame). Output always matches input format.
Image rotation happens entirely in your browser using Canvas API. Zero uploads to servers—we cannot access your files. Works offline after initial page load. Perfect for sensitive documents: legal scans, medical records, ID photos, confidential materials. Verify privacy via browser DevTools Network tab—no upload requests during processing.
Cameras embed EXIF orientation tags instead of physically rotating pixels. Your phone reads these tags and displays correctly. Some apps/browsers ignore EXIF—image appears sideways. This tool physically rotates pixels and strips EXIF, fixing display everywhere. After rotation, image orientation is 'baked in' regardless of EXIF support.
No quality loss—rotation is lossless pixel rearrangement. File size may change slightly (±5%) due to different compression ratios after rotation (JPG compression efficiency varies by image content orientation). If you need specific file size, compress after rotating.
Yes. Each 90° rotation is lossless. Rotate 90° twice = 180° total. Rotate 270° = same as 90° counter-clockwise. Four 90° rotations = full circle back to original orientation. No cumulative quality loss—each rotation is mathematical pixel repositioning, not re-encoding.
Stripped entirely including incorrect orientation tag. This fixes sideways display issues caused by wrong EXIF orientation values. Trade-off: lose metadata like date taken, GPS coordinates, camera model. For privacy-conscious users, EXIF stripping prevents location tracking. If metadata critical, use specialized tools preserving EXIF.
Yes for image formats (JPG/PNG scans). No for PDF files—use PDF Rotate tool instead. Scanned documents often inserted upside-down in sheet feeders—180° rotation fixes this. For multi-page scans saved as separate images, rotate each individually or batch process by uploading multiple files.
CSS rotates display only—file remains sideways when downloaded/shared. Image editing software (Photoshop, GIMP) requires installation, slower for quick fixes. This tool permanently rotates pixels, creates new correctly-oriented file, works instantly in browser without software. For single-image quick fixes, faster than launching Photoshop.
Identical result—270° clockwise = 90° counter-clockwise. We use 270° terminology because most users think in clockwise rotation (90°, 180°, 270°). Math: 360° - 90° = 270°. Choose whichever makes mental visualization easier.
