2. Image File Preview:

This is the feature that most editing tools lack as they only inform you if your file is uploaded or not with only the file name shown. Our Image rotation tool displays the preview of the file the moment you upload the file. This preview helps you analyze your file and verify if the uploaded file is the one you wanted to upload.

After the file is uploaded, click on any of the rotate options (explained in next sections) and the image preview will show the exact file you will receive after rotation according to your need. This feature lets you analyze your images before you decide to download. This saves you from a frustrating mistake of uploading or downloading wrong files.

3. Rotate Clockwise:

Rotating clockwise means rotating along the center in the direction of clock’s hands movement, i.e. from the top to the right, then down and to the left, then back up to the top.

4. Your image preview will appear along with the downloading option.
5. Click on ‘Download’ button to download your clockwise rotated image.

4. Rotate Counter-Clockwise:

Rotating Counter-Clockwise means rotating along the center in the direction opposite to that of clock’s hands movement, i.e. from the top to the left, then down and to the right, then back up to the top. If your picture has a dot on the top right side of the screen, after rotating it by 90 degrees along the center, it will appear on the top left of the screen. To rotate your image in the counter-clockwise direction using our rotate image tool, follow these steps:
