Fix sideways phone photos in one click
Phone cameras often save a photo with orientation metadata that some apps ignore, so the picture shows up sideways or upside-down. Rotate Image turns it 90, 180, or 270 degrees and bakes the correct orientation into the file, so it displays right everywhere.

Is the Rotate Image tool private?
Yes. Your file is uploaded over encrypted HTTPS, processed, handed back, and then deleted — the upload goes the moment the Rotate Image operation finishes and the result the instant you download it, with an hourly sweeper as a backstop. Unlike closed tools that just claim they don't keep your files, Forge Files's code is fully open source, so you can verify exactly how the Rotate Image tool handles your data — or self-host it. No account, no watermark, no upsell. See our privacy details for the full picture.
