About this tool

Rotate or flip images. Use the 90° quick-buttons to fix sideways phone photos, or pick any free angle (0-360°) for creative tilts. Mirror horizontally or vertically with one click.

For non-90° rotations Privvert grows the canvas so nothing is cropped. Pick a transparent background (PNG) or a solid color fill. Everything runs in your browser - your photos never leave your device.

Frequently asked questions

Will the canvas grow when rotating?

Yes for non-90° rotations - the bounding box expands so nothing is cut off, and the new corner area is filled with transparency or your chosen color.

Why do my phone photos open sideways?

Phones write the orientation in the EXIF tag rather than rotating the pixels. Some apps honor that flag, some don't. Rotating with this tool bakes the correct orientation into the pixels themselves.

Will my photo lose quality?

90° rotations are lossless in PNG. Free angles always involve some interpolation; use a high JPG/WebP quality setting to minimize artifacts.

Can I rotate by 0.5°?

Yes - the angle input accepts decimals.

Why does my photo look rotated correctly in some apps but wrong in others?

Cameras and phones store the original orientation as an EXIF tag rather than rotating the raw pixels. Some viewers respect the tag and rotate on display; others ignore it and show the raw pixels. Use the auto-correction option to bake the orientation into the pixels themselves for consistent display everywhere.

Does free-angle rotation crop the result?

Free-angle rotation adds transparent or colored corners by default; you can also crop to the largest inscribed rectangle to avoid the empty corners.
