How to Rotate or Flip an Image

Phones still produce sideways photos. Rotation here rewrites the pixels so the download is upright even in viewers that ignore EXIF orientation flags.

How to use this page

  1. Choose an image.
  2. Pick 90°, 180° or 270° and optional horizontal or vertical flip.
  3. Apply the change and download the rewritten file.

Worked example: a sideways document photo

Rotate 90° until the page is upright, crop the desk if needed, then compress for the upload cap. Do not rely on “the phone showed it correctly” — many portals read pixels, not orientation tags.

What this job is for

A 90° or 270° turn swaps width and height. Preview before you send the file to a place that checks exact dimensions.

Useful limits

Flipping is a mirror, not a rotate. Use flip for iron-on designs or to match a selfie mirror, not to fix a 90° camera tilt.

The live tool behind this page is Rotate & Flip Image. It is the same local engine as the rest of Image Cosmos.

Frequently asked questions

It draws a new image. Pair with the EXIF remover if you also want metadata stripped.
