Flip Image

Use Flip Image to mirror a JPG, JPEG, PNG, or WebP image horizontally, vertically, or in both directions.

"Flip Horizontal (Mirror)" reverses the image from left to right, while "Flip Vertical (Invert)" reverses it from top to bottom.

Both flip options can be enabled together. The current workflow processes one image at a time and creates the transformed output using browser canvas processing.

Flip Image provides two independent transformation controls.

"Flip Horizontal (Mirror)" mirrors the image from left to right across its vertical axis.

"Flip Vertical (Invert)" mirrors the image from top to bottom across its horizontal axis.

You can enable either option individually or enable both at the same time.

When neither option is enabled, the image remains in its original decoded orientation in the workspace.

Horizontal and vertical flipping can be enabled simultaneously.

When both options are active, the processing transformation reverses both image axes around the canvas center.

For the resulting pixel arrangement, flipping both axes is equivalent to rotating the image by 180°.

Use the live preview to confirm the transformation before processing.

The Flip Image operation is designed to preserve the source image's pixel dimensions.

A horizontal flip changes the left-to-right arrangement of the image without changing its width or height.

A vertical flip changes the top-to-bottom arrangement without changing its width or height.

Applying both flips also preserves the original width and height.

The flip operation does not intentionally crop, resize, upscale, or downscale the image.

Flip Image mirrors the image across its horizontal or vertical axis.

Rotate Image changes the orientation of the complete image using fixed angular rotations.

A single horizontal or vertical flip is not the same transformation as a 90° rotation.

When both horizontal and vertical flips are applied together, the resulting pixel arrangement is equivalent to a 180° rotation.

Use Flip Image when you need a mirrored result. Use Rotate Image when changing the image angle is the main requirement.

Flip Image keeps the complete image area and mirrors its pixel arrangement.

Crop Image extracts a selected rectangular region and removes image areas outside that crop.

Use Flip Image when you want to mirror the full image without intentionally removing content.

Use Crop Image when you want to keep only a selected part of the image.

The selected image is decoded by the browser, transformed on an HTML5 canvas, and encoded into the generated output.

The current Flip Image tool does not provide a separate output-format selector. The processing workflow uses the supported MIME format of the selected source image when creating the output.

PNG and WebP formats can support transparent areas when the resulting browser encoding supports transparency.

Because the image is rendered and re-encoded through canvas processing, source metadata such as EXIF, GPS information, and ICC color-profile information should not be assumed to remain in the generated file.

For formats that use lossy encoding, re-encoding can affect file size or image data. The current Flip Image tool does not provide a custom encoding-quality control.

Review the downloaded image when metadata, transparency, color behavior, file size, or exact visual reproduction is important.

Flip performance can depend on the source image file size, pixel dimensions, format, available browser memory, browser implementation, and device resources. Large or high-resolution images can require additional memory while the browser decodes the source image, displays the preview, creates the output canvas, applies the transformation, and encodes the generated image. The flip operation preserves the original pixel dimensions, but high-resolution source images can still require substantial browser memory during processing. Performance may vary between devices and browsers when working with very large images.
