Why do pictures that r sent to me in texts come sideways or upside down......

[Ed Penny]

Pictures don't come in right

common complaint due to various reasons. easy fix. run through snapseed before posting. don't change anything, just load and save. corrects any orientation issues.

I've had this problem on several phones, and not just Android. I've seen this problem on Windows phones and my old iPhone too. It is something to do with how the texting app reads the image's metadata.

Yes , not that hard to rotate them in any case...
