What Flip Image does

Mirror an image horizontally or vertically. The usual reason is a selfie or webcam capture that came out reversed — front cameras mirror the preview, so anything with writing in the shot ends up backwards. Flipping horizontally puts it right. Vertical flipping is rarer and mostly used for reflection effects in design work.

When you'd use it

  • A selfie with backwards text in the background
  • Mirroring a logo for a reflection effect
  • Correcting a webcam capture that came out reversed

Limitations

  • Flipping mirrors the whole image; text and logos in the picture will read backwards after a horizontal flip.

Questions

What's the difference?

Horizontal mirrors left-right, vertical flips top-bottom.

Why does my selfie look backwards?

Most phone and laptop front cameras mirror the live preview so it feels like a mirror, and some save the image that way too. Text in the background gives it away immediately. A horizontal flip corrects it.

Will flipping reduce the quality?

No. Flipping rearranges the existing pixels rather than resampling them, so the output is pixel-for-pixel as sharp as the input. Only the orientation changes.

Should I flip or rotate?

Flip produces a mirror image — left becomes right. Rotate turns the picture without mirroring it. If your photo is sideways you want rotate; if it reads backwards you want flip.
