What this tool helps you do

A phone recording can appear sideways when orientation information is interpreted differently by an app or editor. Rotating or flipping the video can correct the viewing direction before it is uploaded, embedded, or sent to someone else.

Steps for a reliable result

Open the Video Rotate & Flip tool and add the clip. Choose the required rotation or mirror option, preview the frame, and export a corrected copy. Check the result in another player if the original issue was caused by device metadata.

Things worth checking

Rotation and mirroring are not the same: rotation changes the direction of the frame, while mirroring reverses it. Mirroring can make text appear backward, so use it only when that effect is intended. Keep the original until the corrected copy is verified.
