Pro Tips
- •Horizontal flip mirrors left and right, while vertical flip mirrors top and bottom
- •Flipping is lossless - it rearranges existing pixels rather than discarding or blending any image data
- •Flipping is different from rotating - a flip creates a mirror image, while a rotation spins the image around a point
- •The whole file is processed locally in your browser - nothing is uploaded anywhere

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between flipping and rotating?
Flipping mirrors an image along an axis, like a reflection, while rotating spins the image around a center point. A 180-degree rotation is different from flipping both horizontally and vertically unless the image is symmetric.
Does flipping reduce image quality?
No. Flipping only rearranges pixel positions - it doesn't resample, blend, or discard any pixel data, so there's no quality loss.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. The entire process runs locally in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image never leaves your device.
What format is the output?
The result is downloaded as a PNG file, which preserves any transparency in the original image.
Can I flip both directions at once?
Flip one direction, download it, then upload that result and flip the other direction to combine both effects.
