How to rotate an image on iPhone and iPad

If some of your iPhone or iPad photos are in the wrong orientation, don't worry: The Photos app includes a built-in feature that lets you rotate a photo 90 degrees at a time. Here's how to use it.

How to rotate an image on iPhone and iPad

First, open the Photos app on your iPhone or iPad and go to the photo you want to rotate.

Before you do anything else, it’s important to understand that Photos will save the rotation changes to your original image. If you want to keep an original copy of the image, we recommend that you first create a duplicate image for editing purposes. To do this, tap the Share button and select “Duplicate.”

Once you're ready to rotate, tap the “Edit” button on the top toolbar to enter photo editing mode.

This will immediately rotate the image 90 degrees to the left (counterclockwise).

Each time you tap the rotate button, you rotate the image 90 degrees again. Four taps, for example, will return you to the original image. Once you are satisfied with the rotated image, tap the “Done” button in the bottom toolbar.

You can now freely share the rotated image as you normally would, and the recipient will see it in the correct orientation.

How to undo rotation

Editing photos in the Photos on iPhone and iPad is non-destructive. This means you can revert the changes you've made.

If you want to undo the rotation, go to the image in the Photos app and tap the “Edit” button.
