Flip, mirror, or rotate?
A horizontal flip is a mirror image: left and right trade places. A vertical flip swaps top and bottom. Both together equal a 180° rotation. To turn a portrait photo into landscape, you need a 90° rotation; flipping alone cannot do that.
| Operation | What changes | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Horizontal flip / mirror | Left and right swap | Selfies, reflected text |
| Vertical flip | Top and bottom swap | Upside-down reflections |
| Both directions | Left-right and top-bottom swap | 180° visual turn |
| Rotate 90° | Width and height exchange | Portrait to landscape |

Frequently asked questions
How do I flip an image?
Add an image, choose Horizontal, Vertical, or Both, then download it. No signup or watermark.
How do I flip an image horizontally?
Choose Horizontal. It swaps left and right, which fixes mirrored selfies and backwards text.
How do I flip an image vertically?
Choose Vertical. It swaps top and bottom, making the image look upside down.
What does mirror flip mean?
Mirror flip usually means a horizontal flip: the left and right sides swap places.
How do I flip a photo upside down?
Use Vertical. Choosing Both is equivalent to a 180° rotation.
How do I flip an image 90 degrees?
A 90° turn is a rotation, not a flip. This tool mirrors images; a rotation turns the image around its center. See the flip vs. rotation comparison.
How do I flip a photo from vertical to horizontal?
A flip mirrors the image but does not change its portrait or landscape shape. To change orientation, rotate it 90°.
Is it free and without a watermark?
Yes. Every download is free, with no watermark or account required.
Can I make a mirrored meme image?
Yes. A horizontal flip makes the familiar mirrored-face effect.
Can I flip several images at once?
Yes. Add up to 30 images and download each one or a ZIP of the batch.
