This tool needs JavaScript. Turn it on in your browser — or use the Telegram bot below, it does the same.

Choose a photo and tap **Rotate left** or **Rotate right** to turn it by 90°, **Flip horizontally** to mirror it, or move the **Straighten** slider to fix a tilted horizon. The result keeps its format and quality, and the photo never leaves your device.

Works in your browser: what you type or choose stays on your device and is not uploaded anywhere.

## Questions

**Why does my photo show sideways on some sites?**

Phones often save a photo as is and only add a note “turn it”, which some sites ignore. A photo rotated here is saved already turned, so it looks the same everywhere.

**What happens to the corners when I straighten?**

The picture grows to fit the turned photo: corners become white in JPG and transparent in PNG and WEBP.

**Does rotating lower the quality?**

Turning by 90° and flipping move pixels without losing any. JPG is saved again at high quality.

**Is the photo uploaded?**

No. Everything happens in your browser on your device.
