How to Flip an Image Horizontally (Left ↔ Right)

A horizontal flip mirrors an image left-to-right, useful for selfies, correcting reversed scans, preparing transfer prints and simply testing a composition. It is lossless — no quality or transparency is touched. Here is the quick method.

The short version

Follow the steps below with the free Flip Image Horizontally tool — it runs entirely in your browser, needs no upload, account or watermark, and finishes in about a minute.

Step by step

1
Load the image

Bring in the file — up to 30 for a batch.

2
Flip horizontally

The left-right mirror applies in one click.

3
Check reversed content

Text and asymmetric logos will now read backwards — expected for a true mirror.

4
Export

PNG keeps transparency; JPG for photos.
