What does 180° rotation do?

It turns the image upside down, equivalent to flipping both horizontally and vertically.

Will quality be affected?

Quality is preserved with the default output: the canvas re-renders the image as PNG, which is lossless. Choosing JPG re-encodes it at quality 0.92.

Does a 180° rotation change the image size?

The width and height stay the same. Only 90° and 270° rotations swap them.

Where does the rotation happen?

In your browser. The Canvas API redraws the image in this tab, and the file is saved only when you click Download. Our servers are not involved at any point.

How it works

The tool makes a canvas the same size as your image, moves the origin to its center with translate(), turns it with rotate(Math.PI) and draws your image, so the width and height stay the same. PNG output is lossless; JPG is encoded at quality 0.92 with transparent areas filled white.

Processing runs in your browser

All transformations are applied using the Canvas API inside your browser. Our servers are not involved at any point.
