Fix Orientation & Mirror Your Photos
Whether your photo imported sideways, your scan came out crooked, or you want to mirror a selfie, Flip & Rotate Pro gives you instant control. With quick presets and a custom angle slider, you can fix any orientation problem in seconds.
Unlike basic tools that only offer 90° increments, our custom angle slider lets you straighten crooked horizons and fine-tune rotation to the exact degree you need. All processing happens locally—your photos never leave your device.
Understanding the Operations
Rotation
Spins the image around its center. Use 90° presets for quick fixes or the custom slider for precise adjustments.
Horizontal Flip
Mirrors left-to-right. Perfect for selfies and creating symmetrical designs.
Vertical Flip
Mirrors top-to-bottom. Useful for creative effects and fixing upside-down images.
Custom Angle
Fine-tune rotation from -180° to +180°. Great for straightening crooked photos.

Professional Tips
1Lossless Rotation
Rotating by exactly 90°, 180°, or 270° preserves pixel quality perfectly. Custom angles require slight resampling.
2Grid Lines
Use the grid overlay in your mind (or browser rulers) to align vertical lines like buildings or trees when straightening.
3Order Matters
Typically, you should rotate to fix orientation first, then crop to remove empty edges, and finally resize.
4Fun with Symmetry
Duplicate an image, flip it horizontally, and combine them side-by-side to create cool kaleidoscopic effects.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between rotate and flip?
Rotating turns an image around its center point—like spinning a photo on a table. Flipping creates a mirror image—like looking at a photo in a mirror. Horizontal flip mirrors left-to-right (useful for selfies), while vertical flip mirrors top-to-bottom (upside down).
Why do my phone photos appear sideways on my computer?
Modern phones store photos in a fixed orientation and use EXIF metadata to tell apps how to display them. Some apps and websites ignore this metadata, showing photos 'wrong'. Rotating and saving the image with our tool permanently fixes the orientation by actually changing the pixel data.
Does rotating an image reduce quality?
Rotating by 90°, 180°, or 270° is lossless—no quality loss occurs because pixels are simply rearranged. Custom angles (like 45°) require resampling which can cause slight softening, but at typical viewing sizes this is imperceptible. Exporting as PNG preserves maximum quality.
How do I straighten a crooked photo?
Use the custom angle slider to fine-tune the rotation. Drag slowly until the horizon or vertical lines in your photo appear straight. Small adjustments of 1-5° are usually enough for slightly crooked photos. The real-time preview helps you find the perfect angle.
Why would I flip an image horizontally?
Horizontal flipping is most commonly used for selfies. Front-facing cameras show a mirror image in preview but save photos 'correctly'—which looks unfamiliar. Flipping horizontally restores the 'mirror' look you're used to. It's also used to create symmetrical designs.
Are my photos uploaded to your servers?
No, never. Flip & Rotate Pro processes all images 100% locally in your web browser using the Canvas API. Your photos never leave your device, and no data is transmitted to any server. This ensures complete privacy. The tool even works offline once the page has loaded.
Can I rotate multiple images at once?
Yes! Our Pro version supports bulk image upload. Drag and drop multiple images or select them all at once. Use the thumbnail gallery to switch between images. Each image can have different rotations applied, and you can download them individually.
What's the difference between PNG, JPG, and WebP export?
PNG is lossless—best for graphics and when you need perfect quality. JPG is lossy but creates smaller files—best for photos and web sharing. WebP offers the best of both—good quality at small sizes, though older software may not support it. For rotated photos, JPG or WebP at 90%+ quality is usually ideal.
Can I combine rotate and flip operations?
Absolutely! All operations stack together. You can rotate 90° right, then flip horizontally, then add a custom angle adjustment—all at once. The badge in the preview shows your current transformation state. Hit Reset to clear all operations.
Why does my image look slightly cropped after custom rotation?
When you rotate an image to a custom angle, the canvas expands to fit the rotated corners. The image itself isn't cropped—you're seeing extra transparent space in the corners. Our tool automatically adjusts the canvas size to include the entire rotated image.
How do I fix upside-down scanned documents?
Click the 180° rotate button to flip the document right-side up. For documents scanned at slight angles, use the custom angle slider to straighten them. This is much faster than re-scanning or using complex photo editing software.
Can I use the rotated images commercially?
Yes! When you edit your own images using our tool, you retain full ownership of the results. There are no licensing restrictions from our side—you're free to use your rotated/flipped images for any purpose including commercial projects.
