Does flipping an image reduce its quality?

Flipping itself loses no pixels. A .jpg is re-compressed slightly each time it is saved, so flipping the same photo back and forth many times will degrade it a little. PNG is lossless, so leave transparent artwork as a .png.

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. The flip happens entirely inside your browser and your pictures never leave your device.

My front-camera selfie came out back-to-front. Will flipping fix it?

Yes. Phone front cameras sometimes save the mirrored view you see on screen. One horizontal flip turns the lettering the right way round again. A vertical flip will not fix it.

Can I use this to mirror artwork for iron-on transfers or sublimation?

Yes. A transfer sheet is pressed face down onto the fabric, so left and right swap when it is applied. Mirror any design with text or a logo before you print it, or it will come out reversed.

What happens if I choose both horizontal and vertical?

The result looks the same as turning the picture 180 degrees. Choose both Flip horizontal and Flip vertical and run once; there is no need to export twice.

Can I change the angle of a picture here too?

This image flipper only mirrors. Turning a picture clockwise or anti-clockwise gives a completely different result, so rotation is kept as a separate feature.

Is there a limit on uses or files?

No. There is no sign-up and no daily limit, and you can flip as many pictures as you like. Take them one by one or as a single ZIP.

Flip Image (Horizontal & Vertical)

What the image flipper does: horizontal and vertical flips

This image flipper mirrors a photo or a drawing. Flip it horizontally and whatever sat on the right moves to the left; flip it vertically and the top becomes the bottom. It reads .jpg, .png and .webp files, and you can drop in as many as you like and flip them in one go.

Flipping never changes the width or height of a picture. A transparent PNG stays transparent, so nothing gets filled in with white or black. You can pick both directions at once, which gives the same result as turning the picture 180 degrees.

Flip a picture left-right or top-bottom and download it: three steps

ChooseDrag and drop the pictures you want to mirror (.jpg / .png / .webp). Several files at a time is fine.
AdjustChoose Flip horizontal or Flip vertical. The thumbnails turn straight away, so you can check the direction before you commit.
SavePress the flip button, then save the pictures one by one or as a single ZIP. Your original files are left untouched.

Fix a back-to-front selfie, or mirror artwork for an iron-on transfer

A front-camera selfie with reversed lettering: Phone front cameras often save the mirrored view you see on screen. If the logo on your shirt or the sign behind you reads backwards, one horizontal flip puts it right.
Mirroring a design for iron-on or sublimation: Transfer paper and HTV are pressed face down onto the fabric, so left and right swap on contact. Anything with text or a logo has to be mirrored before printing or it comes out reversed.
Lining up the direction people face in a post: When several photos sit side by side, a subject facing the wrong way breaks the flow. Flip that one picture and every gaze points the same way.
A picture that was saved upside down: Scans and older cameras sometimes store a photo the wrong way up. A vertical flip puts it back without touching the size or the quality.

If you only need to turn a picture, use the image rotator

A flip is a mirror image, and it leaves the top of the picture at the top. Mirroring a photo horizontally does not stand it back upright.

A photo saved on its side, or a scanned page sitting at ninety degrees, needs rotation instead, which gives a completely different result. Rather than stack both behind one button, turning by an angle is kept apart as the image rotator.
