Flip a photo online or mirror an image: horizontal, vertical or both
This image flipper mirrors a picture left to right, flips it top to bottom, or does both at once, then gives you the result as a new file. Use it when a selfie came out reversed, a scan or photo is upside down, or a layout needs the subject facing the other way. It works in a browser on a phone or a computer.
Flip picture online in 5 steps
Upload a JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF or HEIC picture and the preview opens with Horizontal already selected. The preview flips the moment you change a choice, so you see the outcome before anything is processed. The 3 buttons set Horizontal, Vertical or Both, and the 2 checkboxes named Horizontal Flip and Vertical Flip let you switch each direction on or off yourself.
- Upload the picture you want to flip.
- Choose Horizontal, Vertical or Both, or tick the flip checkboxes.
- Check the live preview.
- Select See result to run the flip.
- Download the flipped picture from the result screen.
Mirror image online, left to right: the horizontal flip
A horizontal flip swaps the left and right sides, the way a mirror shows you, so it is how you make a mirror pic from any photo. To flip a picture horizontally, choose Horizontal and run the flip. It is the quick fix for a selfie that your front camera saved reversed, and for any photo where a sign, shirt or caption reads backward. Everything in the picture is reversed, including writing.
If you want words on the picture, flip the photo first and then add the text afterward with Add Text to Image, so the new writing reads the normal way round instead of being mirrored along with everything else.
Flip image upside down, top to bottom
Vertical flips the picture top to bottom, which is how you reflect an image the way still water does. Both applies the 2 flips together, which gives the same result as turning the picture 180 degrees, so it also rights an upside-down scan. A single flip mirrors the picture, while a rotation only turns it, so writing keeps its normal letter shapes after a turn but comes out mirrored after a single flip. For a photo that is simply sideways, turn it in 90-degree steps instead.
Make a mirror image effect from one photo
Flip the picture, download the copy, then join the original and the flipped copy in the collage maker. Its Join Row layout puts 2 photos side by side at equal height, and Join Column stacks them, which gives a reflection under the original when the copy was flipped top to bottom. The result is the classic mirror effect, built from one photo and its flipped twin.
Flip a picture on Android, iPhone or a computer
Open this picture flipper in the browser on your phone, choose the photo from your gallery or files, and use the same Horizontal, Vertical and Both buttons. HEIC photos from an iPhone are accepted along with JPG, PNG, WebP and GIF. On a computer, drag the file onto the upload area. The flipped file is a JPG with the same width and height as the original.
Flip one picture, or a whole set at once
The image flipper works on one picture at a time in the browser, with nothing to install, and the flipped file is saved without a watermark. Batch mode flips many pictures in one direction in a single run and saves them in a ZIP; it is a paid feature.
Before you download the flipped picture
- A flip reverses everything in the picture, including signs and writing, so check any text that matters.
- The result is a JPG, so transparent areas turn white and an animated GIF becomes one still frame.
- Width and height stay the same, because the flip does not resize the picture.
- Keep your original file, because the flip makes a separate copy.
Related fixes for mirrored or sideways photos
If the picture is sideways rather than reversed, turn it in 90-degree steps; once a mirrored whiteboard or sign photo reads the right way round, you can select and copy the words in it. For several fixes at once, open the editor with layers, text and effects.
