Summary

The Gallery app has a cosmetic issue in edit mode: rotate function rotates the image the opposite direction as the icon to the function

  • The device is unusable
  • The bug is the source of a data loss or a big waste of time
  • The bug concerns a third party app
  • The bug concerns security
  • The bug concerns privacy

The problem

Steps to reproduce

Go to editing mode for any image. Observe and apply the rotate function.

What is the current behavior?

rotate function rotates clockwise, while the icon is anti-clockwise

What is the expected correct behavior?

The user might expect that anticlocwise rotation will take place. I think the natural is to rotate clockwise. So the icon shall be mirrored to match the function.
