Quick answer

Add your picture above, choose horizontal or vertical, and download the mirrored version. This image inverter online flips rather than inverting colour, it keeps PNG transparency and the original resolution, and it works on animated GIFs too. Free, no sign up, and nothing is uploaded.

Step by step

Mirroring an image in four steps

1

Add your image

Drag in a JPG, PNG, WebP or GIF, or tap to browse from your phone gallery.

2

Choose a direction

Horizontal gives you a left to right mirror. Vertical turns the picture top to bottom.

3

Preview the result

The flipped version appears straight away, so you can switch direction if it looks wrong.

4

Download it

Save the result in the same format you started with, at the same resolution.

Mirror versus rotate

What flipping actually does to a picture

Flipping mirrors an image across an axis, which is not the same as turning it. A horizontal flip swaps left and right, so anyone facing left now faces right and any writing in the shot reads backwards. A vertical flip swaps top and bottom. If your photo simply came out sideways, you want rotate image instead, which turns it without reversing anything.

Transparency

Mirror png files without losing the transparent background

Logos, icons and cutouts are almost always PNG, and the usual worry is whether the alpha channel survives. It does. When you mirror png files here the transparent pixels are moved along with everything else, so nothing gets flattened onto a white box. That is the main reason to bring a logo here rather than into a photo editor that exports JPG by default.

Phone photos

Fixing an upside down picture from a phone

Cameras record an orientation tag, and when an app ignores that tag you end up with an upside down picture that looks fine in your gallery and wrong everywhere else. A vertical flip corrects it in one click. Selfies are the other common case, because front cameras mirror the preview and some phones save the mirrored version, leaving text and logos backwards in the final shot.

Formats and privacy

One pic flip tool for stills and animation

The same pic flip works on JPG, PNG, WebP and GIF, and as a gif flipper it handles every frame rather than only the first. None of it involves an upload. Your browser does the work locally, which is why an image inverter online can be this fast and why your photos never sit on somebody else server waiting to be deleted.

FAQ

Flip and mirror questions

Does this invert colours or flip the picture?+
It flips, meaning it mirrors the image along an axis. It does not create a colour negative, which is a different operation entirely.
Is it free?+
Yes. No account, no watermark and no limit on how many images you run through it. Everything happens on your device, so there is nothing to charge for.
Will the quality drop?+
No. Flipping only rearranges existing pixels, it does not resample or re-compress them, so what you download matches the resolution and detail of what you put in.
Does it keep PNG transparency?+
Yes. Transparent areas stay transparent through the flip, so logos and cutouts come back exactly as they went in.
Can I flip an animated GIF?+
Yes, all frames are flipped together so the animation still plays correctly rather than coming back as a single still frame.
What is the difference between flipping and rotating?+
Flipping mirrors the image, so text reads backwards afterwards. Rotating turns it around a point and leaves text readable. For that, use our rotate image tool instead.
