How to use

Open your image. Browser decoding applies orientation, then a fresh PNG stores the oriented pixels.

Limits and behavior

A browser-supported EXIF orientation is applied once. Source EXIF and other metadata are not copied. Still PNG, JPEG and WebP only; 20 MB, 4 megapixels and 4,096 pixels per side. Processing stays on your device. Exports apply orientation and discard source metadata. PNG output preserves transparency unless the selected operation composites it.

Fix sideways images caused by EXIF orientation

Decode an image, bake the orientation into its pixel arrangement and export an upright result.

Will this restore details lost through previous edits?

No. It changes orientation and output metadata, not missing photo resolution.
