“A client sent a testimonial clip filmed sideways two hours before my deadline. Rotating it here took less time than writing the email asking for a reshoot.”

“A good chunk of the screen recordings our customers send in are rotated wrong somehow. This is the fastest fix I've found.”

Video Rotate FAQ
What people usually ask before rotating a clip.
How do I rotate a sideways video the right way up?
Open the rotate tab and click rotate until the preview looks upright, then export.
Can I rotate a video 180 degrees?
Yes — rotate twice in the same direction to turn an upside-down clip fully around.
Does rotating a video lose quality?
No. A rotation changes orientation only; it doesn't crop, stretch, or recompress the picture.
Will rotating change the video's aspect ratio?
Yes — a 90 or 270 degree turn swaps width and height, so landscape becomes portrait.
Can I rotate a video and trim it in the same pass?
Yes — rotate and trim are separate tabs in the same editor, applied before one export.
Is this video rotator free to use?
Yes — rotating and exporting a clip doesn't require an account or a subscription.
Can I rotate a video on my phone's browser?
Yes — this video rotator works in mobile browsers, so you don't need a desktop or a separate app.
Does rotating affect the audio track?
No — rotating only changes the visual orientation; the audio is untouched and stays in sync.
What formats can I rotate video in?
MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, and most common formats a phone, camera, or screen recorder produces.
Get the orientation right before anyone else sees it.
Rotate to the correct angle, preview it, and export — free, no account needed, no software to install.
