Image Flip
Mirror your image horizontally or vertically, preview the result instantly, and download the flipped version. Useful for selfies, layout checks, and quick orientation corrections.
Horizontal flip mirrors left and right. Vertical flip mirrors top and bottom. You can apply either one or both at the same time.
Privacy: flipping runs locally in your browser. No image is uploaded, stored, or transmitted.

How it works
This tool redraws your image on a canvas after applying a mirror transformation. A horizontal flip reverses left and right. A vertical flip reverses top and bottom. The image keeps the same width and height because the tool changes orientation only, not the pixel dimensions.
- Horizontal flip: useful for mirroring selfies, logos, or composition layouts
- Vertical flip: useful when an image appears upside down or needs top-bottom reversal
- Both flips together: produces a double mirror effect
- Result interpretation: flipping changes direction and orientation, but not image quality, crop area, or size
Examples
- Selfie correction: flip horizontally to compare mirrored and non-mirrored appearance
- Design review: flip a layout to check visual balance from the opposite direction
- Upside-down image: use vertical flip to fix orientation in certain exported or scanned images
- Creative editing: combine horizontal and vertical flips to create alternate compositions without resizing or cropping

FAQ
- What does flip mean?
Flip means mirroring the image. Horizontal flip mirrors left and right, while vertical flip mirrors top and bottom.
- Does flipping reduce image quality?
No. Flipping changes orientation only. It does not crop the image or reduce its dimensions.
- Is the original image preserved?
Yes. The original uploaded image remains available in the browser session, and this tool only changes the preview canvas.
- Do I need to upload my image to a server?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser.
- When should I use horizontal flip?
Use horizontal flip when you want to mirror a selfie, reverse composition, or correct left-right orientation.
- When should I use vertical flip?
Use vertical flip when an image appears upside down or when you need a top-bottom mirrored version for design or editing work.
