Frequently Asked Questions
Are rotated images cropped or cut off?
No. The HTML5 Canvas dynamically recalculates the exact trigonometric bounding box based on the rotation angle, guaranteeing that all corners and visual details remain fully visible without clipping.
Can I rotate transparent PNG and WebP files?
Yes, transparent PNG and WebP images retain their full alpha channel transparency when rotated, preventing unexpected white or black backgrounds.
Why do photos taken on smartphones sometimes appear sideways or upside down?
Smartphones store orientation info in EXIF metadata tags instead of physically rotating the pixel grid. Some websites and software ignore EXIF orientation flags; our tool permanently rotates the underlying pixel matrix so it renders correctly everywhere.
Can I rotate images by fine custom angles (e.g., 1° or 2°) to straighten tilted horizons?
Yes, in addition to preset 90°, 180°, and 270° buttons, you can use the precision slider to adjust rotation from -180° to +180° by single-degree increments to straighten uneven photographs.
Are my photos uploaded to an external server during rotation?
No. All image rotations and file exports execute 100% locally in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API, ensuring complete privacy for your personal or confidential photos.
