FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Rotating & Flipping Images

Everything you need to know about rotating and flipping images online quickly and safely.

How do I rotate an image online?

Upload your image, then click Rotate Left or Rotate Right to turn it 90° at a time, or drag the angle slider for a custom rotation. Click Download when you're happy with the result.

How do I flip an image horizontally or vertically?

After uploading your image, click Flip Horizontal to mirror it left-to-right, or Flip Vertical to mirror it top-to-bottom. You can combine flipping with rotation before downloading.

Will rotating crop or cut off part of my image?

Rotating by 90° or 180° never crops the image since the canvas automatically adjusts to fit the full rotated content. Custom angle rotation also expands the canvas so no part of your original photo is lost.

Is this tool free and private?

Yes, the tool is completely free with no signup, and all rotation and flipping happens locally in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API — your images are never uploaded to a server.

What's the difference between rotating and flipping?

Rotating turns the image around a center point by a chosen angle, like 90° or 180°. Flipping creates a mirror image along a horizontal or vertical axis without changing the angle of the content.

Can I rotate to an exact custom angle like 15°?

Yes, the custom angle slider lets you rotate to any degree between 0 and 359, which is ideal for straightening a tilted horizon or fine-tuning an angled shot.
