How do I flip or mirror an image?

Load your image into PixKit's Rotate & Flip panel and click Flip H to mirror it left-to-right or Flip V to mirror it top-to-bottom. You can combine flips with 90° rotations for any orientation. The flip remaps pixels one-to-one — instant and lossless — and the image never leaves your browser.

A private image toolkit, not just a watermark remover

Clean the Gemini sparkle, then finish the job — crop, resize, convert and adjust without uploading a single pixel.

Lossless watermark removal

Reverse-alpha math restores the true pixels under the Gemini logo — no blur, no AI guesswork.

Crop & resize

Crop to any aspect ratio with draggable handles, then resize to exact pixels or quick scales.

Convert & compress

Export to PNG, JPG or WebP with a quality slider and a live file-size estimate.

100% private

Every tool runs locally with undo/redo. Nothing is uploaded — it even works offline.

Mirror an image in 3 steps

Flips are pixel-exact remaps — there's nothing to configure and nothing to lose.

Load your image

Drag and drop, paste with Ctrl/Cmd+V, or browse. The Rotate & Flip panel is already active on this page.

Flip it

Click ⇋ Flip H for a horizontal mirror (left becomes right) or ⇅ Flip V for a vertical one (top becomes bottom). Need a turn too? The 90° left and 90° right buttons combine freely with either flip.

Export

Download as PNG, JPG or WebP. Every flip is undoable, so experiment as much as you like before saving.

What people use it for

Un-mirroring selfies

Front cameras often save a mirrored image, so shirt text reads backwards. One Flip H restores the real-world orientation.

Iron-on transfer prep

Transfer paper needs a mirrored design so it reads correctly after pressing. Flip H your artwork before printing — the classic step everyone forgets once.

Fixing scans and negatives

Documents scanned face-down or film digitized from the wrong side come out mirrored — a horizontal flip (plus a quarter turn if needed) sets them right.

Design composition

Sometimes a subject should face into the page rather than off it. Mirroring a photo flips the visual flow without reshooting.

Symmetry checks

Artists flip their work to reveal lopsided proportions the eye has adapted to — a habit that's one click here.

Frequently asked questions

Mirrors, flips and orientation fixes.

What's the difference between flipping an image and rotating it 180°?+
Rotating 180° turns the image upside down but keeps it un-mirrored — text still reads left-to-right once you turn your head. Flipping mirrors it: text reads backwards after Flip H. They're different transforms; only a flip produces a true mirror image.
How do I make my selfie look the way other people see me?+
That's one Flip H. Front cameras usually show (and often save) a mirrored preview — flipping horizontally restores the real-world orientation, which is why text on your shirt suddenly reads correctly.
Does flipping reduce image quality?+
No. A flip moves every pixel to its mirrored position without resampling — the result contains identical pixel values to the original. Export as PNG and the entire operation is lossless end to end.
Can I flip horizontally and vertically at the same time?+
Yes — click both buttons in sequence. Flip H plus Flip V is equivalent to a 180° rotation. You can also mix flips with the 90° left/right buttons to reach any of the eight possible orientations of your image.
How do I mirror an image for an iron-on transfer?+
Click ⇋ Flip H before printing — transfer paper reverses the design when pressed, so a pre-mirrored print comes out reading correctly on the fabric. Export as PNG at full resolution for the cleanest print.
Why does my scanned document look mirrored, and can this fix it?+
Film and transparencies scanned from the wrong side, or documents captured through glass, come out mirrored. Flip H fixes the mirroring; add a 90° turn if the page is also sideways. Both are instant and undoable here.
Can I mirror just one half of the image onto the other?+
No — the flip transforms the whole canvas; PixKit doesn't composite a symmetric "mirror booth" effect. To fake it, export a flipped copy and combine both halves with the collage tool.

Flipping and mirroring, done losslessly

A flip is the simplest transform in imaging — every pixel moves to its mirrored position, and nothing else changes. There's no interpolation, no resampling, no quality decision to make. Which makes it slightly absurd that most "mirror image online" sites route your photo through a server queue to do it. PixKit performs the remap directly in your browser's canvas: click, done, and the picture never leaves your machine.

Horizontal vs. vertical, and when you want each

Flip H mirrors left-to-right — it's what fixes mirrored selfies, prepares iron-on transfers, and turns a subject to face the other way. Flip V mirrors top-to-bottom, which is rarer but exactly right for certain scanner and negative-digitization mishaps, and for creative reflections. If an image is both mirrored and sideways — common with carelessly digitized film — combine a flip with the 90° left/right buttons in the same panel until it reads correctly. Every step is undoable.

Why "lossless" matters here

Because flips and quarter-turns move pixels without resampling them, the operation itself costs zero quality — the flipped image contains exactly the same pixel values as the original, rearranged. The only quality decision left is your export format: choose PNG and the whole pipeline is lossless end to end; choose JPG or WebP and compression is applied once, at export, like any save. Contrast that with services that silently re-encode to JPG on their server before you've even downloaded.

Part of a full editor

Flipping is usually one step of a small chore — un-mirror the selfie, then crop it; flip the scan, then straighten and export as PDF-ready PNG. PixKit keeps all of that in one tab: rotate and flip live beside crop, resize, adjust and the export dialog, so the whole fix takes a minute with no uploads anywhere in it.
