Does rotating lose quality?

Rotating by 90° or 180° is pixel-exact. Any other angle resamples the image, which softens fine detail very slightly.

Why does my rotated image have coloured corners?

A rotated rectangle does not fill a rectangle, so the gaps get the fill colour you pick. Choose PNG output and the corners stay transparent for 90° steps.

My phone photo shows sideways. Why?

The photo carries an EXIF orientation flag that some apps ignore. Rotating here writes the correct pixels and drops the flag, so it displays the same way everywhere.

Rotate & Flip Image

Fix a sideways photo or mirror a screenshot in two clicks. Rotate left or right in 90° steps, drag the slider for any angle between 0 and 359°, and flip horizontally or vertically. The canvas grows to fit the rotated image so nothing is clipped, and you pick the colour that fills the corners. Exports PNG, JPG, or WebP at full resolution.
