Before and after
OriginalMirroredDrag the handle across the image. The right-hand side is this tool's output, not a mock-up of it.
Three steps
Drop in the photo or graphic you want mirrored.
Mirror it left to right, top to bottom, or both.
The result is the same file, the same size, with the pixels mirrored.
Why this one
Flipping only reorders existing pixels, so the output is pixel-for-pixel the original with nothing recompressed or approximated.
Front cameras show you a mirror and then save the unmirrored version, which is why selfies look wrong. One horizontal flip puts it back to what you saw.
Horizontal, vertical or both, so you can build a symmetric pattern from one tile without opening an editor.
The short version
Flipping is trivial and constantly needed, which is a good reason for it to be one click rather than four menus deep. The single most common use is undoing the front camera mirror, closely followed by making a symmetric pattern from one tile, and both are the kind of thing that should not require installing anything.
Questions
Flipping mirrors the image, so text reads backwards. Rotating turns it, so text stays the right way round but on its side. They are not interchangeable.
The camera preview mirrors you, because that is what you expect from a mirror, but the saved file is unmirrored. Flipping horizontally gives you back the version you were looking at while you took it.
No. It is one of the few image operations that is genuinely lossless, since it moves pixels without changing any of their values.
Not here. Crop the part you want first, flip it, then combine it back with the collage tool if you need the two halves together.
Free, and staying free
Thridy is a library of thousands of 3D icons in one consistent style, free for commercial use with no attribution and no account. The tools exist so you never have to upload an image to somebody else's server to resize it.
