Flip an image horizontally

Selfie cameras often save mirrored photos, and some designs need a reversed image. The tool is preset to flip horizontally; add a vertical flip or rotation if you need it.

    Flip an Image: common questions

    Why do my selfies look reversed?

    Front cameras show a mirrored preview, and some phones also save the photo mirrored. Flipping horizontally restores the way other people see you, so text in the background reads correctly.

    Does flipping change the image quality?

    No. Flipping only rearranges pixels. Export PNG for a lossless copy, or JPEG at high quality for a smaller photo.
