How to Flip and Rotate Images — Quick Orientation Fixes

Rotation vs Flipping

Rotation turns the image by a specific angle (90, 180, or 270 degrees, or a custom angle).

Flipping creates a mirror image — either horizontally (left becomes right) or vertically (top becomes bottom).

Common Use Cases

Rotation

• Photos taken with the phone held sideways
• Scanned documents that are upside down
• Straightening a slightly tilted horizon

Horizontal Flip

• Selfies (to see yourself as others see you)
• Design layouts that need to face the other direction
• Creating mirror-image pairs

Vertical Flip

• Scanned documents placed upside down
• Creating reflections for design effects

3. For custom angles, use the slider or type the exact degrees
4. Download the rotated image

Tips

• Rotation by 90/180/270 degrees is lossless — no quality loss
• Custom angle rotation may slightly reduce quality due to interpolation
• Flipping is always lossless
• Many phones embed orientation data in EXIF — some tools auto-correct this
