THREE SIMPLE STEPS

Rotate GIF, without an upload.

01

Choose your GIF

Drop, browse, or paste a GIF file. It stays on your device.

02

Adjust and inspect

Review the original animation and choose your output settings.

03

Export and download

Check the actual result and save it. Keep your original separately.

Rotate animated GIF frames together.

Choose a clockwise rotation of 90, 180, or 270 degrees and export. A 270-degree clockwise turn is the same orientation as a 90-degree counterclockwise turn. Every complete GIF frame is rotated using exact pixel coordinates, so a right-angle turn does not require a new interpolated image or a cropped corner.

Dimensions follow the rotation.

Rotating by 90 or 270 degrees swaps width and height. Rotating by 180 degrees keeps the original dimensions. The output preserves all source frames, their delays, and the loop setting. It is useful for an animation saved in the wrong orientation, sideways screen content, or a design element that needs a different direction.

Check the exported result.

The source preview remains in its original orientation so you can compare it with the output. Export to view the rotated animation and confirm the new dimensions. This tool supports right-angle rotation only; it does not provide arbitrary angles, a free-rotation canvas, mirroring, or perspective correction. GIF re-encoding may still change the palette or byte size even though the pixel positions are rotated exactly. Keep the original file before applying further edits such as cropping or resizing.

A FEW GOOD ANSWERS

GIF questions,
answered.

Is Rotate GIF free?

Yes. No login, payment, watermark, or cloud upload is required. Processing happens in a browser worker.

What files can I open?

Use a GIF up to 30 MB and 4096 pixels per side, within 24 million total decoded pixels. The same memory limit applies to enlarged output.

Can the output size or colors change?

Yes. GIF outputs are re-encoded and can have different colors and byte sizes. WebP quality is lossy. Extracted PNG frames preserve the decoded RGBA pixels.

Which tool should I use next?

Trim for duration, resize for pixel dimensions, crop for framing, compress for colors and scale, extract for still PNG images, or convert to animated WebP. The navigation and tool links below connect all eleven tools.
