Frequently asked questions

Is quality lost when rotating?

No blur is added: turning in 90° steps and flipping only move pixels. The colors are kept as close to the original palette as the GIF format allows.

Can I rotate by any angle?

Only in 90° steps, so the animation keeps its rectangular shape without empty corners.

Is it free?

Yes. Browser tools on PhotoTools are free, unlimited and work without an account.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your images never leave your device, and nothing is stored.
