Rotate, flip and straighten in one place

Choose an image, turn it, mirror it or straighten it, see the result as you go, and download it. Everything happens in your browser on your own device. The image is never sent to us.

It is free, needs no account and has no daily limit, because nothing about it runs on our servers.

How to use it

Choose a JPG, PNG or WebP image, or drop it on the page.

Rotate left or right turns it a quarter turn each time. Two taps turn it upside down.

Flip horizontal mirrors it left to right, like a reflection. Flip vertical turns it upside down as a mirror image.

Straighten tilts it by up to 45 degrees in half-degree steps, for a sloping horizon or a building that leans.

Tap Save, check the result and download it.

Straightening and the corners

A tilted image no longer fills a rectangle, so its corners would be empty. By default the tool crops in just enough to remove them, keeping the original shape. You can turn that off to keep the whole picture; the corners are then transparent in PNG and WebP, or a colour you choose in JPG.

Rotating by a quarter turn or flipping never loses a pixel. Straightening redraws the image at an angle, which softens it very slightly.

Why phone photos sometimes appear sideways

Phones store which way up a photo was taken in a hidden tag rather than turning the pixels. Some sites and apps ignore the tag and show the photo on its side. This tool applies the tag when it opens the image and saves the pixels the right way up, so the downloaded file looks the same everywhere.

Flipping is also how to undo a selfie that came out mirrored, so text in the background reads the right way round.

Common questions

Is it free to rotate an image here?

Yes. No account, no charge and no daily limit.

Is my image uploaded?

No. It is rotated in your browser and never leaves your device. We only count that a rotation happened, never the image or its name.

Does rotating reduce the quality?

Quarter turns and flips move pixels without changing them. Save as PNG for an exact copy, or as JPG or WebP at a high quality for a smaller file. Straightening at an angle redraws the image and softens it slightly.

How do I fix a mirrored selfie?

Choose the photo and tap Flip horizontal, then save it.

Can I rotate by a custom angle?

Yes, up to 45 degrees either way with Straighten. Combine it with the quarter turns for any angle.

Will the image be added to my CMeIn gallery?

No, never, even if you are signed in. The result only goes to your device when you download it.
