OneDrive Rotate Photo button missing
Unless I am missing something very obvious, it is no longer possible to rotate photos in OneDrive.
The Edit Photo button also seems to be missing?
Am I going mad?

So far I know, Microsoft removed or significantly limited photo editing features (including rotate and edit) in recent versions of the OneDrive mobile app (iOS and Android), particularly for work/school accounts.
Workarounds You Can maybe Use
Use OneDrive Web
- Go to onedrive.live.com
- If you're using a personal account, open the image ➝ Edit ➝ Rotate
For work/school accounts: editing may be disabled by admin policy
Open Photo in Another App
- In OneDrive mobile:
o Tap the photo
o Tap ... (More options) ➝ Open in another app
o Choose your device's native photo viewer or editor
o Rotate and re-save (it usually syncs back to OneDrive)
Download and Re-upload
- Download the photo from OneDrive
- Rotate using your default Photos app (iOS or Android)
- Upload back to OneDrive if needed
Optional Fix (Admin Level)
If you're using OneDrive for Business, your IT administrator can:
- Check the Microsoft 365 Admin Center
- Go to: Settings > Org settings > Services > OneDrive
- Enable "Allow editing of photos" (if present — this is tenant-dependent)
With your permission, if not all suggestions works, I recommend to provide more information.
