Correct a sideways photo or deliberately turn a graphic without uploading it. The browser redraws every pixel onto a canvas at the selected angle, swapping the output width and height for quarter turns and preserving the dimensions for a half turn.
How to use Rotate Image
- Choose a JPEG, PNG, or WebP image.
- Select a clockwise, counterclockwise, or 180-degree rotation and an output format.
- Process the image, check the new orientation, and download the rotated copy.
Things worth knowing
- A 90-degree turn swaps the image width and height.
- JPEG output fills transparent pixels with white because JPEG has no alpha channel.
- The tool creates a still image from the browser-decoded frame; it does not preserve animation.
Frequently asked questions
Can I rotate an image counterclockwise?
Yes. Choose 90° counterclockwise. The downloaded pixels are redrawn in that direction rather than only changing an orientation metadata flag.
Does rotation reduce image quality?
PNG rotation is lossless at the pixel encoding stage. JPEG and WebP use the quality setting and can introduce lossy compression.
