FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What does flipping an image actually do?

A horizontal flip creates a mirror image left to right, useful for fixing selfie text that reads backwards. A vertical flip mirrors top to bottom. Rotation turns the image around its center in fixed ninety degree steps.

Which file formats does the tool support?

JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF and BMP are all supported for both input and output. The original format is preserved on download.

Will I lose quality when I flip or rotate?

No. Flips and ninety degree rotations are lossless operations because they only rearrange existing pixels. The output file is pixel-identical to the input in every way except orientation.

Can I batch flip multiple images?

The current version handles one image at a time. For batch operations, run the same flip on each image one after another —each operation completes in well under a second.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. The entire flip and rotate operation runs in your browser using the Canvas API. The image never leaves your device, which makes the tool safe for private photos.
