## Questions & answers

### My phone recorded the video sideways, will rotating actually fix it?

Yes. The rotation is applied to the pixel data (or rotation metadata), not just a player-side flag, so the fix sticks across every player and upload.

### Will rotating reduce video quality?

For 90° / 180° rotation, the encoder can re-orient without quality loss in most cases. Mirror flips are also lossless.

### Does the video get uploaded to a server?

No. Rotation runs in your browser, your video never leaves your device, and we keep nothing.

### Will the rotated video look right on every platform?

Yes. Because the rotation is baked into the output file, every player and upload destination shows it correctly, not just the ones that respect rotation metadata.
