1Upload the PNG images that came out the wrong way round.
2Pick a quarter turn or a half turn, or type an arbitrary angle and choose a colour for the corners it will expose.
3Apply the rotation; the pixels and the orientation flag are reconciled so every viewer agrees on which way is up.

Rotate PNG FAQ
Can I rotate a whole batch in one go?
+
Yes. The same rotation is applied across every file you upload, which is the practical fix for a folder of scans or camera output that all came in the wrong way round.
Can I rotate by an arbitrary angle, not just 90 degrees?
+
Yes, though the two are different operations underneath. A multiple of 90 degrees rearranges existing data; any other angle has to rebuild the grid and fill the corners, so it costs a resample and usually wants a background colour choosing.
Does the format decide whether rotation is lossless?
+
It does. PNG is lossless DEFLATE with a full 8-bit alpha channel and optional 16-bit depth, so it never degrades on re-save but gets large on photographic content. That property is exactly what determines whether a quarter turn is free or costs a re-encode.
Anything specific to PNG I should know?
+
Yes — there is no quality slider to get wrong — a PNG round-trips bit-exactly, so the only thing edits cost you is file size. It is the kind of thing that explains why a file looks right in one application and wrong in another.
Will Rotate PNG lower the quality of my PNG images?
+
No. A lossless source round-trips bit-exactly, so unless you explicitly ask for a lossy output format the pixels that come back are the pixels that went in. That is the whole reason to keep working in this family while you are still editing.
Can I run Rotate PNG on several PNG images at once?
+
Yes — upload the set and they process in parallel under one set of settings. Lossless files are larger, so a big batch is bound by your upload speed rather than by the processing itself.
Does the alpha channel survive?
+
Yes. PNG and TIFF carry a full 8-bit alpha channel and it is preserved end to end. It is only flattened if you deliberately target a format that has no alpha, in which case transparent pixels are composited onto white.
Does Rotate PNG cost anything?
+
No. Rotate PNG runs free without an account and adds no watermark. Files are removed from the workers shortly after you download, and nothing about the image is retained.
Why does a WebM site host Rotate PNG?
+
WEBM.to is built around the container the open web actually chose — VP9 or AV1 with Opus audio, decoded natively by every modern browser and needing no plugin, licence or player. Video is the case where extra round trips hurt most — the files are large and every upload costs real minutes. Running Rotate PNG on the same pipeline as the conversions means one upload covers the whole job instead of one upload per tool.
What should I do with the result once Rotate PNG is finished?
+
The converter on this site moves video between WebM, MP4, MKV, MOV and the rest, or pulls the soundtrack out entirely, without another upload. Sequencing it that way matters more for video than anywhere else: each re-encode is another generation, so the fewer of them stand between the source and the file you publish, the better it looks.
Is Rotate PNG here the same tool the sibling sites run?
+
The engines are shared — the same ffmpeg build with x264, x265 and libvpx, the same workers, the same limits. What a WebM site adds is a view on containers and codecs: which combinations play everywhere, which need a re-encode and which can simply be copied across. It also starts from one fact about the format this site is named after: WebM is VP9 or AV1 with Opus audio, which browsers decode natively but which most desktop editors still transcode on import.
Do I need an account, and does anything get kept?
+
No account, and nothing is kept: uploaded video is deleted from the workers shortly after the job finishes, nothing is watched and nothing is indexed. Free accounts exist for history and batch size, not for access.
