Rotate MOV files

Upload an MOV file and rotate it. For MP4 and MOV files the rotation is written as metadata, so it is lossless and near-instant; WebM and MKV files are re-encoded.

Rotation

Sideways iPhone clips, righted instantly

QuickTime files carry orientation metadata, so rotating a MOV here is a lossless flag update with the video stream copied unchanged. The fix takes seconds regardless of clip length or resolution.

Frequently asked questions

Why did my phone record sideways in the first place?

The camera sensor has a fixed orientation; phones note how they were held in metadata. When that note is wrong or unsupported, playback comes out rotated.

Does quality change at all?

No, the streams are untouched; only the orientation flag differs.

Is footage uploaded?

No, everything runs on your device.
