About

Flip YouTube — rotate incorrectly oriented videos 🔄

Flip YouTube is a simple Chrome extension that helps fix videos uploaded in the wrong orientation.

If a video appears sideways or upside down and the player doesn’t offer rotation controls, Flip YouTube allows you to adjust the view instantly — without downloading or editing.


🤔 When is this helpful?

Sometimes content is recorded in the wrong orientation due to camera position or device rotation issues.

In these cases, Flip YouTube lets you rotate the player visually so the video becomes comfortable to watch.


📌 Common situations
	•	🎓 online lectures and recorded meetings
	•	🚗 dashcam or action camera footage
	•	📱 vertical content viewed on desktop
	•	🎬 quick orientation checks without editing software
	•	💃 learning or repeating dance moves from videos


⚙️ What you can do
	•	🔁 Rotate video by 90°, 180°, or 270°
	•	↔️ Flip horizontally or vertically
	•	♻️ Reset orientation at any time

All changes are applied locally in your browser and do not affect video quality.


💡 Example use

If you ever need to turn a YouTube video sideways to view details more clearly on a large screen, the extension gives you manual control with one click.


⚡ Performance & privacy
	•	🚀 Works instantly after installation
	•	▶️ No impact on playback speed
	•	🔒 No data collection
	•	🛡️ No tracking or external connections


Flip YouTube focuses on one task only — making incorrectly oriented videos easy to watch 👀
