Mirror any JPG, PNG, or WebP image horizontally or vertically — free, instant, and processed entirely in your browser.
JPG, PNG, and WebP supported
The Flip Image tool mirrors a JPG, PNG, or WebP image horizontally (left-right) or vertically (upside-down), instantly and with a live preview. It's the same effect as viewing a photo in a mirror — useful for reversed front-camera selfies, matching the direction a subject faces in a design, or creating a mirrored graphic.
Flipping is different from rotating: a flip mirrors the image, while a rotation turns it around a point without reversing it. If you just need to turn a sideways photo the right way up, use the Rotate Image tool instead. Everything here runs in your browser — your photo is never uploaded.
| You want to… | Use |
|---|---|
| Mirror a reversed selfie so text reads correctly | Flip Horizontal (this tool) |
| Turn a sideways phone photo the right way up | Rotate Image |
| Flip an image upside-down | Flip Vertical (this tool) |
| Create a mirrored duplicate for a design layout | Flip Horizontal or Vertical (this tool) |
What's the difference between flipping and rotating?
Flipping mirrors the image like a reflection — text and faces are reversed left-to-right or upside-down-to-right-side-up. Rotating turns the whole image around a point without mirroring it. If your photo just needs turning the right way up, use our Rotate Image tool instead.
Why would I flip a photo horizontally?
Common reasons: correcting a front-camera selfie where text in the background appears backwards, matching the direction a subject is facing for a layout, or creating a mirrored design element. It's also called mirroring an image.
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. Flipping happens on your own device using your browser's canvas engine — the image is never transmitted anywhere.
Does flipping an image reduce quality?
No — flipping is a lossless pixel rearrangement, not a resample. The output has exactly the same resolution and detail as the original.
Can I flip an image both horizontally and vertically at once?
Yes — click both Flip Horizontal and Flip Vertical. Applying both is the same as rotating the image 180°.
How do I flip a photo on my iPhone or Android without an app?
Open this page in your phone's browser, upload the photo, tap Flip Horizontal or Flip Vertical, then download — no app install needed, and it works the same on iOS and Android.
Can I download, print or email the flipped image?
Yes — Download saves the flipped copy, Print opens it in a print-ready tab (from which you can also choose Save as PDF), and Email sends it via your device's share sheet where supported, or your mail app with a reminder to attach the downloaded file.
