How to Flip an Image

  1. Choose a photo

    JPG, PNG, or WebP up to 25MB, at most 8,192 px on a side, and at most 24 megapixels. The file stays in this browser.

  2. Pick a direction

    Horizontal starts on. Vertical starts off. Turn either one on or off. A finger works on a phone.

  3. Watch the preview

    Live mirror preview starts on. The long side on screen is at most 1,400 px. Turn the preview off to see the photo as opened.

  4. Download PNG or JPG

    The file is the same pixel size as the photo. It has no watermark. PNG can keep transparency. JPG fills it with white.

Flip Image Without Uploading It

Flip image online free on this page. Open it in a phone or computer browser, choose a JPG, PNG, or WebP, and the mirror is drawn here. The photo is not uploaded. Flip image online here means a left-to-right mirror, a top-to-bottom mirror, or both. The full-size PNG or JPG is free and has no watermark.

Horizontal is on when the page opens. Vertical is off until you turn it on. Live mirror preview is on, so the canvas updates as soon as you change a switch. Turn that preview off and the canvas shows the photo as it was opened, while the download still follows the switches. Both switches together move each pixel to the opposite corner. The file keeps the same width and height. This is not a 90° turn, and it does not crop the photo.

The download uses the photo's own pixel size, not the smaller preview. JPEG is re-encoded at quality 0.92. PNG is not. PNG keeps the transparency the photo already had. JPG has no transparency: each pixel is flattened on white, then mirrored. To type words onto the photo without uploading it, add text to an image. A round avatar is crop to a circle. A frame around the whole photo is add a border to an image. A mosaic is pixelate an image. A blur is blur an image. A white outline that follows a person is photo to sticker. A cutout is the PNG maker. To soften the room and keep the subject, blur the background of a photo. Sticker, PNG maker, and background blur upload the photo, and the full-size file there is paid. If you need the subject without its backdrop, the background remover makes a transparent PNG.

When a Mirror Fits

A photo facing the wrong way

Leave horizontal on. Left and right trade places. Words in the photo read backwards.

A photo that is upside down

Turn vertical on and horizontal off. Top and bottom trade places.

Both directions

Leave both on when the subject should move to the opposite corner. The width and height stay the same.

Before you post

Download the PNG or JPG, then post that file. This page does not open another app.

Before You Download

  • Horizontal is the start

    The page opens with left-to-right on and top-to-bottom off. Change the switches before you download.

  • PNG or JPG

    Use PNG when the photo has transparency. Use JPG when the file has to be solid. JPG fills transparency with white.

  • The preview can stay upright

    Live mirror preview is optional. Off, the canvas shows the opened photo. The download still uses the switches.

  • Phone photos

    A JPEG from the phone is rotated to the way it looks on screen, including the EXIF orientation, before the mirror. HEIC is not accepted. Export a JPEG or PNG from the phone first.

Limits

These match the current page. Flip image never uploads the photo, and a mirror is not a new picture.

  • JPG, PNG, or WebP only, up to 25MB, at most 8,192 px on a side, and at most 24 megapixels. A larger file is refused so the full-size export can finish in the browser. HEIC is not accepted.
  • On screen the preview's long side is at most 1,400 px. The download is the photo at its own pixel size, not that preview. The width and the height do not change.
  • Horizontal starts on. It swaps left and right: the pixel on the left edge moves to the right edge. Vertical starts off. It swaps top and bottom. Either switch can be turned on or off.
  • Live mirror preview starts on. While it is on, the canvas updates when a switch changes. While it is off, the canvas shows the photo as it was opened. The download still follows the switches, including when the preview is off.
  • With both switches off, the download is the upright photo. PNG keeps its alpha. JPG still flattens each pixel on white.
  • With both switches on, each pixel moves to the opposite corner. A pixel at the top left lands at the bottom right. The file is not rotated by 90°, and it is not cropped.
  • PNG keeps the alpha the photo already had, in the mirrored position. JPG flattens each pixel onto white before it is written, so a transparent pixel becomes white and then moves with the mirror.
  • JPEG downloads are re-encoded at quality 0.92. PNG is not. If this browser cannot encode a JPEG, the download is a PNG of the same pixels, and transparency stays.
  • The preview mirrors with canvas scale, so a browser without newer canvas path methods still shows the mirror. The download does not use that transform. It copies pixels with the same left-right and top-bottom rule.
  • A JPEG from the phone is rotated to the way it looks on screen, including the EXIF orientation, before the mirror. Words in the photo read backwards after a horizontal mirror.
  • This page does not install an app, does not call a model, and does not upload the photo. It does not crop a circle, does not add a frame, and does not blur or pixelate.
