Rotate Video Online

Rotating a video

This tool rotates a video in 90-degree steps or mirrors it.

It is most useful for footage shot with a turned phone that shows up sideways in some applications.

How to use it

Upload the video, choose the direction and confirm. Check the result in the program where you intend to use the video.

A 90-degree turn swaps width and height, so a landscape clip becomes a portrait one.

Why some videos display the wrong way up

Phones often record the orientation as a separate note inside the file rather than rotating the picture itself. Programs that ignore that note show the video turned.

This tool rotates the picture itself, so the result displays the same way everywhere.

Frequently asked questions

Is my original video modified?

No. A new file is produced and the original stays as it is until you choose to replace it yourself.

Does rotating cost quality?

The video is written out again, which can slightly change quality depending on settings. The pixels themselves are not recalculated.

Is there a limit on file size?

Processing happens in your browser, so it is bound by available memory. For very large files, close other tabs or use a device with more memory.
