    Frequently asked questions

    Can I rotate a GIF by 90 degrees online?

    Yes. A browser-based GIF editor can rotate the full animation without requiring desktop software.

    Will rotation change the playback speed?

    No. Rotation changes orientation, not timing, so the frame order and playback speed stay the same unless you edit them separately.

    Can I flip a GIF horizontally or vertically?

    Yes. Flipping is useful when a mirrored direction works better for the surrounding layout or story.
