Loading the tool…
To rotate an image online, add your photo, use the left or right buttons for quarter turns or drag the angle slider for a small tilt, flip it if needed, check the preview and press Apply. Quarter turns are exact pixel moves with no quality loss for lossless formats. Nothing is uploaded.
Fix sideways photos, mirror a picture, or straighten a crooked horizon. Quarter turns move pixels exactly; free angles can expand the canvas so nothing is cut off. It is a free tool from Websolindia, a New Delhi website design and SEO company that builds fast, image-optimised websites.
Unlike most online image tools, this one does not upload your pictures. Your browser decodes each image, applies the edit with our own pixel code and shows a live preview before you download. You can process up to 30 images at a time and download them one by one or together as a ZIP.
Once your image is ready, you may also want the Square Image Cropper Online, the JPG Image Resizer Online or the Add Border to Image Online. All of our free image tools are listed in the Image Editing Tools Online collection and the Websolindia Image Converter.
Use this table to choose settings with confidence.
| Action | Result | Quality |
|---|---|---|
| Rotate right 90° | Width and height swap | Exact, no loss |
| Rotate left 90° | Width and height swap | Exact, no loss |
| 180° | Upside down | Exact, no loss |
| Free angle (e.g. 3°) | Image tilts; corners filled | Slight softening |
| Flip horizontal / vertical | Mirror image | Exact, no loss |
This is exactly what happens to your image, with no hidden step. You can check that nothing is uploaded by watching your browser's network tab while you use the tool.
| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| 1. Read and decode | The photo is decoded and its camera orientation applied. |
| 2. Flip (optional) | Horizontal and vertical flips swap pixel positions exactly. |
| 3. Rotate | Multiples of 90° move pixels exactly. Other angles use inverse mapping with bilinear sampling on premultiplied colours. |
| 4. Size the canvas | With 'Expand' on, the canvas grows to W′ = |W cos θ| + |H sin θ| by H′ = |W sin θ| + |H cos θ| so nothing is cropped. |
| 5. Fill and encode | New corners are transparent or filled with your colour, then the image is saved in your chosen format. |
| Setting | Default | Choices | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Angle (degrees, clockwise) | 0 | -180 to 180 | Use the buttons for quarter turns, or drag for a small straightening tilt. |
| Flip horizontally | Off | On / Off | |
| Flip vertically | Off | On / Off | |
| Expand the canvas so nothing is cut off | On | On / Off | |
| Fill colour for new corners | #ffffff | Any colour | |
| Transparent corners (PNG / WebP) | Off | On / Off | |
| Save as | Same as the original | Same as the original; PNG (keeps transparency); WebP (smaller, keeps transparency); JPG (smallest for photos) | |
| Quality | 92 | 1 to 100 | Used for JPG and WebP output. 85–92 suits most images. |
| What | Formula | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| New width | |W cos θ| + |H sin θ| | θ is the rotation angle. |
| New height | |W sin θ| + |H cos θ| | Expand mode only. |
| Direction | Positive angles turn clockwise | Left 90° = −90°. |
| Component | Role | Where it runs |

Add it and press 'Rotate right 90°' or 'Rotate left 90°', then Apply.
Quarter turns and flips do not change any pixel. Other angles resample the image slightly. Saving as JPG adds JPG compression; PNG does not.
Drag the angle slider by a small amount (for example 1 to 3 degrees) and watch the preview, then Apply. Keep 'Expand the canvas' on, or crop afterwards.
They are filled with the colour you choose, or left transparent if you tick transparent corners and save as PNG or WebP.
Yes: tick Flip horizontally or Flip vertically, or use the flip buttons.
Yes. The same rotation is applied to every image you add, and you can download a ZIP.
Yes. It is free, needs no sign-up, adds no watermark and has no daily limit. It is provided by Websolindia.
No. Your images are read and processed inside your browser on your own device. They are never sent to Websolindia or anyone else, which is why the tool is safe for private photos.
No. New files are created from the pixels, so camera details, GPS location and other embedded metadata are not copied. Keep your originals if you need that information.
Up to 30 images per batch and 150 MB per image. Images above roughly 120 megapixels are declined with a clear message rather than freezing your browser.
Current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on computers, phones and tablets. Large images and AI or AVIF features run faster on a computer.
