It can be frustrating when you capture an important moment on your iPhone, but when you play back the recorded video, it is sideways for some unknown reason. Fortunately, rotating a video in iOS 13 is now an easy process. Here are the steps:
- Open the video in the Photos app on your iPhone.
- Tap Edit.
- Tap the Crop icon.
- If the video has been filmed at a flexible angle, you can straighten it by swiping along the ruler below the video until you’re satisfied.
- If you need to rotate it 90 degrees or more, tap the rotate icon on the top-left corner of the screen.
- Tap Done.
If your iPhone can’t run iOS 13, don’t worry. You can use a different app like iMovie to rotate your video. Here are the steps:
Steps to Use iMovie to Rotate a Video:
- Open the iMovie app and tap the Projects option at the top of the screen.
- Press the Create project button and select the Movie option.
- Select the clip you want to edit from your camera roll and tap Make movie.
- Rotate your clip by placing 2 fingers on the larger version of the shot and rotate them left or right until it aligns in the right direction.
- Tap Done and export the file back to your camera roll to share it with others.
That’s it. Your video is now ready to be shared. Also, consider trying Apple’s Clips app for creating short videos for your friends.
