Get your photo facing the right way
A backward selfie, a subject facing away from your slide title, or a whole folder of assets: choose the direction that fits your next step.
How to flip a photo online
Choose your image
Select a file from your device or drag it into the tool. Use “Try a sample” if you want to check the controls first.
Choose the flip direction
Select Horizontal to swap left and right, or Vertical to swap top and bottom. The preview updates as you make changes. Select the same direction again to undo that flip; Reset clears the flip settings for every image in the batch.
Download the result
Check any text, logos, and faces in the preview, then select Download to save the current image. Your original file stays unchanged.
Horizontal vs. vertical flip vs. rotate
To flip an image horizontally is to reflect it left to right, like a mirror. A vertical flip reflects it top to bottom. Rotation turns the image instead of reflecting it—so an upside-down photo with otherwise normal text usually needs a 180° rotation.
| Operation | What changes | Check a photo with text |
|---|---|---|
| Horizontal flip | Left and right swap places | Normal text becomes backward; mirrored text becomes readable |
| Vertical flip | Top and bottom swap places | Normal text is reflected top to bottom |
| 180° rotation | The whole image turns halfway around | Upside-down text returns to its normal orientation |
Need to turn a sideways or upside-down photo?
Use Rotate Image to turn the picture. In this flipper, switching on both Horizontal and Vertical also produces a 180° rotation.
Unmirror a selfie or adjust your layout
Fix mirrored text in a photo
If a shirt logo or a sign reads backward in your selfie, try Horizontal. If you prefer the mirrored look instead, use the preview to choose the version you like. The flip affects the whole photo, including every word in it.
Turn a subject toward your content
Flip a person or product to face the headline in a presentation slide, social post, or thumbnail. Check logos before exporting: changing a subject's direction also reverses any text already in the image.
Flip a drawing reference
Mirror a reference photo to view the composition from the opposite direction. Download that version if it suits your sketch, or toggle Horizontal off to return to the original view.
Batch flip images and download a ZIP
Choose up to 10 images, select one from the list, and set its flip direction. Select Apply to all if every file needs the same settings. You can also select individual images and give them different settings before downloading.
Use ZIP to download the batch, or Download for just the selected image. Exported names are based on the original filename, with spaces and special characters simplified; duplicate names in the ZIP get a numbered suffix.
If an image fails to export, it is left out of the ZIP. Check the error messages to see which files were skipped.
Each file can be up to 10 MB and 40 megapixels. A batch can include up to 5 HEIC/HEIF images.
JPG exports as JPG, PNG as PNG, and WebP as WebP. HEIC/HEIF, AVIF, and BMP export as PNG.
HEIC/HEIF files are decoded on your device. Opening other formats depends on your browser, and downloading WebP requires WebP export support.
