Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I rotate a video online?
- Drop your video into the rotator, pick 90° CW / 90° CCW / 180°, hit Process. The video rotator runs FFmpeg WebAssembly directly in your browser, so a 100 MB MP4 finishes in seconds and never touches a server.
- How do I fix a sideways video from my iPhone or Android?
- Most sideways phone videos need 90° clockwise. If after rotating it's still tilted, undo and try 90° counter-clockwise instead — the direction depends on whether you held the phone with the camera on the left or right. For upside-down clips (rare), use 180°.
- How is this different from Clideo, Kapwing, or Online-Convert rotate?
- Speed and privacy. Clideo / Kapwing / Online-Convert upload your video to their server, queue, re-encode, send back — slow and your file briefly sits on their disk. This rotator runs locally in your browser; nothing uploads, no queue, free with no watermark or sign-up cap.
- Does rotation change the video dimensions?
- Yes for 90° rotations — a 1920×1080 landscape video becomes a 1080×1920 portrait. 180° rotations keep the same dimensions. Need specific final dimensions? Pair with our video resizer after rotating.
- Will rotating reduce video quality?
- Minimally. The video is re-encoded during rotation (rotation can't be done with stream-copy), but we use high-quality H.264 with a low CRF to preserve detail. The visual difference between original and rotated is imperceptible.
- Can the rotator handle iPhone videos with orientation metadata?
- Yes — the rotator applies a true pixel-level rotation, so the output works correctly even in players that ignore orientation metadata (most older players, hardware media boxes, etc.). The output looks right everywhere.
- Does the rotator preserve audio?
- Yes — audio is copied through unchanged. Only the video stream is rotated and re-encoded.
