Mirror a picture horizontally, vertically, or both. Your format and any transparency are kept, and the whole thing happens on your device — nothing is uploaded.
Quick answer: Drop an image below, click Flip horizontal or Flip vertical, and download it. Flipping only rearranges pixels, so nothing is lost, and the file keeps its original format and transparency.
A flip mirrors the image across an axis. Anything with a direction to it reverses: text reads backwards, a parting moves to the other side of the head, a watch appears on the other wrist. A rotation turns the image without mirroring, so text stays readable.
If a photo is lying on its side, you want rotation. Use a flip when you actually want the mirrored version — matching the way a front camera shows you, making a pair of images face each other in a layout, or correcting a scan that came through reversed.
Why flipping costs no quality
Flipping is a rearrangement. Every pixel that was in the image is still in the image, just at a different coordinate — nothing is interpolated the way it is when you resize or rotate by an arbitrary angle. The only place quality can be spent is saving the result: JPEG is lossy every time it is written, so a flipped JPEG is re-encoded once. PNG and WebP output keeps the pixels exactly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Flipping is a lossless operation in itself — it only rearranges existing pixels, none are invented or discarded. The one place quality can be spent is re-encoding: a JPEG has to be saved again, which is lossy by nature. PNG and WebP output keeps every pixel exactly.
Flipping mirrors the image across an axis, so text reads backwards and a face looks the other way. Rotating turns it while keeping the same handedness, so text stays readable. If you want to fix a sideways photo you want rotation, not a flip.
Yes. A transparent PNG or WebP stays transparent — empty pixels are never filled with white or black. Only JPEG output, which has no alpha channel at all, is placed on white, and only because the format cannot store anything else.
No. The flip happens on a canvas in your browser and the file never leaves your device, so it is safe for private photos, screenshots and documents.
PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF and BMP. The output keeps your original format, except for animated GIFs, where only the first frame is flipped and saved as a still image.
Yes — apply both and the image is mirrored across both axes, which is the same result as rotating it 180 degrees.
