Rotate and Flip Image

When to Rotate or Flip an Image

Photos taken on a phone or camera sometimes save with the wrong orientation because the device recorded the rotation metadata but the receiving platform does not read it correctly. Rotating fixes the orientation so the image displays correctly everywhere. Flipping horizontally mirrors the image left to right, which is useful for correcting text that appears backwards in photos, creating symmetrical designs, or adjusting the direction a subject faces in a composition. Flipping vertically creates an upside-down mirror, less commonly needed but useful for certain graphic design and watermarking workflows. All rotation and flipping is done in your browser; no image data is uploaded anywhere.
