How to reverse, invert, or flip an image online

Upload an image, choose Invert Colors, Flip Horizontally, or Flip Vertically, and click Reverse Image. The selected effect is applied in your browser using an image canvas. Preview the result and use Download PNG to save the processed image.

Invert image colors

Invert Colors creates a negative-style effect by reversing the red, green, and blue values of each pixel. Dark areas become light, light areas become dark, and colors shift to their inverted RGB values. Image transparency is preserved during this operation.

Flip an image horizontally

A horizontal flip mirrors the image from left to right. Objects originally on the left move to the right and objects on the right move to the left. This is useful for creating a mirror image or changing the direction a subject faces.

Flip an image vertically

A vertical flip mirrors the image from top to bottom. Content near the top moves to the bottom while content near the bottom moves to the top. Unlike rotation, the image is reflected across a horizontal axis without turning it 180 degrees.

Flip vs rotate: what is the difference?

Flipping reflects an image across an axis, while rotation turns the entire image around a point. A horizontal flip creates a left-to-right mirror. A vertical flip creates a top-to-bottom mirror. Neither operation is the same as rotating the image by 90 or 180 degrees.

What happens to the output format?

The processed result is exported as a PNG image. This means an uploaded image may have a different file format from the downloaded result. The canvas keeps the original image dimensions while applying the selected reversal effect.

Browser-based image processing

The inversion and flip operations are performed with the browser's Canvas API. The uploaded image is loaded into a canvas, the selected transformation is applied, and the processed canvas is converted to a PNG result. Supported input formats therefore depend on formats your browser can decode.

Reverse Image FAQ

Can I mirror an image from left to right?

Yes. Choose Flip Horizontally to create a left-to-right mirror of the uploaded image.

Can I flip an image upside down?

Choose Flip Vertically to reflect the image from top to bottom.

What does Invert Colors do?

It reverses the RGB color values of the pixels to create a negative-style color effect while leaving the alpha channel unchanged.

Does reversing an image change its dimensions?

No. The canvas uses the original image width and height, so the processed image keeps the same pixel dimensions.

What format is the downloaded image?

The processed result is exported and downloaded as a PNG file.

Are the image effects processed on the server?

The actual color inversion and flip transformations are performed in your browser using a canvas.
