Flip PNG (Mirror)
Mirror PNG images horizontally or vertically, transparency intact
Mirror a PNG the way you want it to face
A mirror flip is one of those small edits that solves a surprising number of problems: turning a selfie the right way round, making two graphics face each other, or building a symmetrical pattern from a single tile. Flipping is not the same as rotating — it reflects the image rather than turning it.
This tool mirrors your PNG horizontally or vertically while keeping every transparent pixel exactly where it should be. It runs in the browser, so the image never leaves your device and the flip is applied the instant you click.
How to flip a PNG
- Drop a PNG into the box above, or click to choose one.
- Choose a horizontal flip (left to right) or a vertical flip (top to bottom).
- Check the preview to confirm it faces the right way.
- Click Download PNG to save the mirrored image.
Why flip a PNG?
Fix the direction
Selfies and screen-mirrored shots often come out reversed. A horizontal flip puts text and faces back the way people expect to see them.
Build symmetry
Mirror a single element to create a balanced, matching pair — handy for design layouts and repeating patterns.
Lossless and private
The flip only rearranges pixels and runs entirely on your machine, so quality is untouched and nothing is uploaded.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between flipping and rotating?
Flipping mirrors the image across an axis, like a reflection, while rotating turns it around a point. A flipped photo has its left and right swapped; a rotated one is turned on its side.
Are my images uploaded when I flip them?
No. The mirror is applied by your browser locally, so the PNG never leaves your device and nothing is stored online.
Does flipping keep the transparency?
Yes. The transparent areas are mirrored along with the visible pixels, so a cut-out stays transparent after the flip.
Will flipping lower the quality?
No. Mirroring only rearranges the existing pixels, so the flipped PNG is exactly as sharp as the original.
Can I flip several PNGs together?
Yes. Add multiple files, apply the same mirror and download them all in one ZIP.
