## About

Rotate Image turns photos and scans by right angles — 90° clockwise, 180°, or 270° (the same as 90° counter-clockwise). The pixels are redrawn on a canvas at the new orientation, so a sideways phone photo becomes upright in one click.

Because the work happens on your device, even large photos process instantly and nothing is uploaded. The result is saved as PNG, which is lossless: rotating and saving repeatedly never degrades the image.

## How to use

1. **Choose the image** — JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, and AVIF are accepted.
2. **Pick the angle** — Rotate 90° at a time, or jump straight to 180°/270°.
3. **Download** — The rotated copy is saved as a lossless PNG.

## Examples

### Sideways phone photo

A landscape shot that imports lying on its side needs one 90° turn.

## FAQ

### Will rotating reduce my image quality?

The output is a lossless PNG, so no quality is lost on save. Photos that started as JPEG will be re-encoded losslessly; the file may be larger than the original.

### Does the tool read the EXIF orientation flag?

Yes — browsers apply EXIF orientation when decoding, so a photo flagged as rotated displays upright and the output matches what you see.

### Can I rotate by an arbitrary angle like 45°?

This tool sticks to right angles, which keep the frame intact. For straightening horizons by a few degrees, a crop-and-straighten tool is a better fit.

### Which formats can I rotate?

Anything your browser can decode: JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, and AVIF. Animated GIFs are flattened to their first frame.
