Image Rotator

Scan to open this page

Rotate an image by 90°, 180°, or a free -45° to 45° angle to straighten a tilted shot — the canvas auto-expands so corners are never clipped, unlike tools that crop whatever spills past the original frame.

How it works

  1. Upload an image
  2. Rotate by 90° steps, or drag the -45° to 45° slider to straighten a tilted photo
  3. Download as PNG (transparent corners) or JPG (solid background fill)

Frequently asked questions

Will rotating at a custom angle cut off my photo's corners?

No — this tool automatically expands the canvas to fit the fully rotated image, so nothing outside 90° increments gets clipped.

What fills the empty corners after a custom-angle rotation?

PNG downloads leave the corners transparent; JPG downloads fill them with a solid background color, since JPG doesn't support transparency.

Does my photo get uploaded anywhere?

No — rotation happens entirely in your browser using the Canvas API.

Rotate a photo 15° to straighten a horizon, and some tools quietly crop the corners. This one expands the canvas instead.

Any rotation off a 90° step pushes corners past the original frame. This rotator auto-expands the canvas so nothing outside the frame gets clipped — plus a free -45° to 45° slider some tools skip entirely.
