Three clear decisions

How to rotate a video online

The workflow stays focused on direction, so a quick correction does not turn into a full editing project.

  1. 01

    Choose a video

    Select one video from your device. It stays in your browser for inspection and processing.

  2. 02

    Set the direction

    Turn left, right, or 180°. Add a horizontal or vertical flip only when the picture needs it.

  3. 03

    Preview and export

    Play the transformed preview, choose an output format and quality, then download the rotated video.

Use the right transform

Rotate is not crop or resize

Each action solves a different picture problem. Keeping them separate prevents surprise black bars, missing edges, or mirrored text.

Rotate

Turns the entire picture in 90° steps. Quarter turns swap the video width and height.

Flip

Mirrors the picture across an axis. It changes left to right or top to bottom, not the viewing angle.

Crop

Removes picture edges. Use it when rotation leaves content you no longer want inside the frame.

Open Crop Video

Resize

Changes the output canvas or pixel size. Use it to fit a vertical clip into a landscape layout without confusing resizing with rotation.

Orientation that travels

A correct preview is only the first check

Some files rely on rotation information that one player respects and another ignores. This tool renders the chosen transform into the downloaded result for more predictable playback.

  • Confirm real dimensions

    A 90° or 270° turn swaps width and height. The workspace shows both before and after values.

  • Expect an export tradeoff

    A broadly compatible result must be regenerated. Processing time, file size, and quality depend on the source and export settings.

  • Keep the privacy boundary

    Processing stays on your device in this browser, without a server fallback.

Common fixes

When a video rotator is the right tool

Sideways phone clips

Correct footage recorded before the phone recognized its new orientation.

Camera and action footage

Turn upside-down or side-mounted camera video into a normal viewing direction.

Screen recordings

Fix recordings captured with a rotated display or unusual device setup.

Mirrored webcam video

Use a horizontal flip when text or movement appears backward in the picture.

Clear answers

Rotate video FAQ

The important distinction is simple: rotation changes direction; crop and resize change framing.

Need rotation at different moments?

Use the full video editor when only part of a clip needs turning, or when rotation must change over time.
