Questions

Frequently asked questions

How are 90-degree rotations applied?

The decoded pixel grid is remapped to the selected orientation; output encoding depends on the format.

Can I rotate by a custom angle?

This tool is designed for quick 90-degree corrections. Custom-angle rotation is not available.

What happens to an animated GIF?

Only the first frame of an animated GIF will be rotated. The output will be a static, non-animated image.

Background

Image Rotation and EXIF Data

This tool rotates your images by 90, 180, or 270 degrees. It's a quick fix for pictures taken with a camera held at an angle.

  • Digital cameras embed orientation data in a photo's EXIF metadata. This tells software how to display the image correctly, even if it is stored sideways.
  • Sometimes this EXIF tag is ignored or removed, causing the image to appear sideways. This tool physically rotates the pixel data to fix the orientation.
