FAQ About Image Rotator

What is EXIF orientation?

Cameras and phones record which way the device was held when taking a photo. EXIF orientation tag tells viewers to rotate the image. Some viewers ignore it, causing sideways photos.

Does rotating reduce image quality?

Rotating by 90°/180°/270° is lossless (just rearranges pixels). Rotating by arbitrary angles requires resampling and may slightly reduce quality.

Can I rotate multiple images at once?

Batch rotation is a planned feature. Currently, rotate images one at a time.
