Why Rotate an Image?
Cameras and phones sometimes save images in the wrong orientation — sideways, upside down, or at an angle. This happens due to EXIF orientation data not being read correctly, or simply because the photo was taken at an unusual angle. Rotating permanently fixes the orientation so it displays correctly everywhere.
