Crop.photo usually straightens your images automatically by using EXIF Orientation metadata, which is hidden in most photos. This data helps Crop.photo figure out how to rotate the image correctly.

However, sometimes cameras don’t include this information, so the photos might appear rotated. Here are a few ways to fix that:

Option 1: Check Your Camera Settings

Look in your camera settings and make sure the auto-rotate feature is turned on. Each camera has different steps for this, so check your camera manual for details.

Option 2: Rotate Multiple Images in Adobe Lightroom

  1. Open Lightroom and load the images you want to fix.

  2. Switch to the Grid view, then select the photos you want to rotate by holding shift and right-clicking.

  3. Press Ctrl (or Cmd on Mac) + [ to rotate them. Keep pressing until the orientation is correct.

Option 3: Rotate Images in Windows Explorer

  1. Open the folder where your images are saved.

  2. Select all the images you want to rotate.

  3. Right-click on them, then choose Rotate right or Rotate left to adjust their orientation.
