What is the difference between horizontal and vertical flip?

A horizontal flip mirrors the image left-to-right, as if reflected in a vertical mirror. A vertical flip mirrors it top-to-bottom, as if reflected in a horizontal mirror.

Can I flip both axes at once?

Yes. Click "Flip Horizontal" and then "Flip Vertical" (or vice versa) to flip the image along both axes simultaneously, which is equivalent to a 180° rotation.

Does flipping affect image quality?

No. Flipping is a lossless geometric operation. The output PNG will have the same pixel values as the input, just mirrored.

Image Flip

Flip an image horizontally or vertically with a single click. Preview the result and download as PNG.

The Image Flip tool lets you mirror an image either horizontally (left–right) or vertically (top–bottom) with a single button click. Flipping is performed using Canvas transforms: ctx.scale(-1, 1) for horizontal and ctx.scale(1, -1) for vertical. A live preview updates after each flip. You can apply multiple flips in sequence. Download the final result as a PNG.
