Flip any image horizontally or vertically instantly — entirely in your browser, no server upload.
Also compress images with the Image Compressor or convert formats with PNG to JPG.
This image flip tool works as an online image mirror tool, horizontal flip converter, and vertical image flipper for photographers, designers, content creators, and anyone who needs to quickly flip or mirror an image without installing software or uploading files to a third-party server.
A horizontal flip (also called a mirror flip) reflects the image along the vertical axis — the left side becomes the right and vice versa. This is the most common flip type, used in photography to correct mirror-image selfies, create symmetrical compositions, or produce artistic reflection effects. A vertical flip reflects the image along the horizontal axis, turning it upside down. This is useful for creating water reflection mockups, rotating artwork, or correcting images that were captured in an inverted orientation. The Flip Both option applies both transformations simultaneously, rotating the image 180 degrees.
The tool uses the HTML5 Canvas API to apply transformations directly in your browser. The original image is drawn onto a canvas element with the appropriate scale transformation applied — scaleX(-1) for a horizontal flip, scaleY(-1) for a vertical flip, or both. The result is then exported as a PNG data URL for download. Because all processing happens client-side, your image data never leaves your device. There is no file size limit imposed by a server, and the tool works offline after the page has loaded. The flipped image is always exported at the original image resolution with no quality loss.
Common practical uses for image flipping include correcting selfies taken with a front-facing camera (which typically mirror the subject), preparing product images for e-commerce listings where a mirrored pair is required, creating symmetrical design assets, and producing before-and-after comparisons. Video editors also use still-frame flips when creating thumbnail art. The tool is particularly useful for quickly testing whether a composition works better in its original or mirrored orientation before committing to a crop or edit.
