## About

Turn a sideways photo upright or mirror it in one click — the dimensions update live and the file downloads from your browser.

## Quick answer

How do I rotate an image online? Add the photo, use the rotate and flip buttons until it looks right, then download. Everything happens locally — nothing is uploaded.

## How to rotate an image

1. **Add your photo** — it stays in your browser.
2. **Rotate or flip** — every click updates the preview and the dimensions instantly.
3. **Download** — the result saves in the same format you uploaded.

## When you need this

- Phone photos that saved sideways
- Scanned documents fed the wrong way into the scanner
- Mirroring a photo to fix a flipped selfie camera shot

## Good to know

Rotating by 90° or 270° swaps width and height — the stats above show the new dimensions before you download. Need to cut instead of turn? Try [Crop image](https://toolpantry.app/crop-image.html), or shrink the result with the [target-size compressor](https://toolpantry.app/compress-image-to-100kb.html).

## Notes

JPG photos are re-encoded once at 92% quality (visually identical); PNG stays lossless. The original file is never modified.

## FAQ

**Does rotating reduce quality?**

PNG input stays lossless. JPG output is re-encoded once at 92% quality, which is visually identical for photos. The original file is never modified.

**Is the photo uploaded?**

No. Rotating, flipping, and downloading all happen inside your browser tab.
