Rotate or flip video

Turn a sideways video upright, or flip it. Nothing is uploaded.

About this tool

Fix a video that plays sideways or upside down, or flip it like a mirror. Turn it left or right in quarter turns, preview the result, and save it when it looks right. Phone videos sometimes end up on their side after being shared or edited, and this puts them back the right way up. The work happens on your own device, so nothing is uploaded, there is no account to create and no watermark is added.

How to use it

  1. Choose your video.
  2. Turn it left or right, or flip it, until the preview looks right.
  3. Press Save.
  4. Download the corrected video.

Common questions

Does rotating reduce the quality?

For MP4 and MOV files it usually does not, because the turn is stored as a note in the file. Other formats have to be redrawn, which takes longer.

Can I rotate only part of a video?

No. The turn or flip applies to the whole video.
