Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my photo look sideways when I upload it to a website?

Phones store orientation data in the image's EXIF metadata rather than physically rotating the pixels. Many websites and apps ignore this EXIF tag, displaying the raw pixels sideways. Using this tool physically rotates the pixels so the image looks correct everywhere.

Does rotating a JPG reduce its quality?

Rotating a JPG by 90° involves a re-encode, which can add a very small amount of JPEG compression. If quality is critical, use a PNG to avoid this. For most purposes the difference is invisible.

Can I flip a GIF without losing its animation?

Flipping a GIF in this tool will process the first frame as a still image, not all frames. For animated GIFs, the output will be a still flipped image.

What is the difference between flip horizontal and mirror?

They are the same thing. 'Flip horizontal' or 'mirror' both reverse the image left-to-right, like looking at it in a mirror.

Can I rotate a photo 45 degrees for a diagonal effect?

This tool focuses on 90° increments and cardinal flips. For arbitrary angle rotation (like 45°), you would need a more advanced image editor, though rotating at odd angles also adds empty canvas space around the image.
