Mirror an Image — Free Online Tool

Flip any image horizontally or vertically right in your browser. This tool instantly mirrors your photo when you upload it, making it perfect for design work, reflections, symmetry edits, or creative effects. All processing happens locally on your device, so your images remain private and secure — nothing is uploaded anywhere.

How to Use

  1. Upload a JPG or PNG image.
  2. The tool automatically applies a horizontal mirror (left ↔ right flip).
  3. Choose how you want to mirror your image:
    • Horizontal Mirror (left-to-right flip)
    • Vertical Mirror (top-to-bottom flip)
  4. Click Apply to update the preview.
  5. Download the mirrored image as PNG or JPEG.
    • JPEG allows you to adjust the quality slider before saving.

Note: Very large images depend on your device's memory. Check the Notes panel on this page for the maximum supported resolution.

Why Mirror an Image?

Mirroring an image is useful for:

  • Creating symmetrical graphics
  • Fixing reversed selfie images
  • Generating reflection effects
  • Preparing assets for design layouts
  • Social media edits
  • Reversing orientation for printing or composition

This tool makes flipping an image effortless — no Photoshop or editing software needed.

Key Features

  • Private & secure: All image processing happens in your browser.
  • Automatic mirroring: Default horizontal flip applied on upload.
  • Two mirror options: Choose horizontal or vertical flip.
  • Instant preview: Adjust → Apply → download.
  • Flexible output: Save as PNG (lossless) or JPEG (with adjustable quality).
  • Format support: Works with JPEG and PNG images.
  • Browser tested: Optimized for Chrome and Safari.

Tips for Best Results

  • Use horizontal flip to correct selfies or reverse left-right orientation.
  • Use vertical flip to create reflection effects or mirrored designs.
  • Export as PNG if you need exact pixel quality or transparency.
  • Export as JPEG for photos or smaller file sizes.
  • Very tall or wide mirrored images may exceed device limits; refer to the Notes section for max resolution.

How It Works (Briefly)

Once an image is uploaded, the tool draws it onto a browser canvas.

  • Horizontal mirror flips the image along the y-axis.
  • Vertical mirror flips the image along the x-axis.

The transformed image is then exported as PNG or JPEG. Since everything runs locally, processing is instantaneous and secure.
