Flip Video Online
Mirror a video left to right, turn it top to bottom, or apply both directions. Preview the reflection and download a newly processed video.
Flip Video with an Online Editor
Use a horizontal flip to create a mirror image or correct footage saved with left and right reversed. Use a vertical flip to exchange the top and bottom of every frame.
Flip changes the geometry of each frame. It does not turn a sideways video by 90° or make the action play backward in time.
How to Flip Video Online
A flip reflects every frame across a horizontal or vertical axis. Horizontal flip exchanges left and right; vertical flip exchanges top and bottom. Enable both directions only when that combined result is intended.
Step-by-step
- Upload or drag and drop a video file.
- Choose Horizontal, Vertical, or Both.
- Play the preview and inspect text, logos, and gestures.
- Click Flip Video to process the selected reflection.
- Download the result or continue editing it.
Choose the correct reflection
- Horizontal: mirror left and right, as if viewing the frame in a mirror.
- Vertical: exchange top and bottom across a horizontal axis.
- Both: apply both reflections; visually equivalent to turning the frame 180°.
- Original: clear the selected flip before processing.
When Should You Flip a Video?
Horizontal flip is useful when front-camera footage, a capture device, or an earlier edit saved the image mirrored. It can also change screen direction so a person appears to face into a layout rather than away from it. Always inspect text and branded elements: a mirror effect reverses them too.
Vertical flip is less common. Use it for a deliberate reflection effect or to correct footage that was specifically inverted top to bottom. For a sideways or upside-down recording, Rotate Video is usually the clearer operation.
Popular use cases
- Correct left-right reversed front-camera footage.
- Restore readable movement or direction.
- Make a subject face toward titles or another clip.
- Create a deliberate mirror or reflection effect.
- Correct footage inverted across one axis.
Check details before exporting
Look for reversed captions, signs, clothing text, logos, clock faces, interface recordings, and left- or right-handed actions. If these become incorrect, flipping may not be the right fix.
What Changes—and What Does Not?
Flipping preserves the frame dimensions, duration, playback speed, and temporal order. It changes where pixels appear across the selected axis. The uploaded source is not modified; the tool creates a new processed result.
Processing may change file size or visual quality slightly. A flip does not automatically crop, resize, rotate by 90°, remove a background, or reverse audio and motion.
Flip, Rotate, Reverse, or Crop?
Flip Video
Mirror the frame horizontally, vertically, or across both axes.
Rotate Video
Turn a sideways or upside-down frame by 90°, 180°, 270°, or a custom angle.
Reverse Video
Make the selected action play backward in time without mirroring the picture.
Crop Video
Remove outer areas and keep a smaller visible part of the frame.
Supported Video Formats
The uploader accepts common formats including MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM, and MKV. If a format cannot be previewed directly by the browser, it may need preparation before the flip preview becomes available.
Need to Edit Your Video?
Combine the flipped result with other clips, reposition it, crop the frame, resize the canvas, or add text, audio, and subtitles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about flipping videos.
Can I flip video online for free?
Yes. You can upload a video, preview a horizontal or vertical reflection, and create a processed result without installing desktop software.
Can I flip video horizontally and vertically?
Yes. You can apply horizontal flip, vertical flip, or both. Applying both produces the same visual frame orientation as a 180° rotation.
What is the difference between flip and rotate?
Flipping mirrors the video (left ↔ right or top ↔ bottom), while rotating changes the angle (90°, 180°, etc.).
Will flipping affect video quality?
Flipping creates a newly processed file, so file size or visual quality may change slightly. Your original uploaded file is not modified.
What formats are supported?
The uploader accepts common formats including MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM, and MKV. Browser preview support can vary by codec.
Does horizontal flip reverse text?
Yes. A horizontal mirror reverses left and right across the entire frame, including captions, signs, logos, and interface text already embedded in the video.
Is flipping the same as reversing a video?
No. Flip changes the spatial direction of the image. Reverse Video changes the order of frames so the action plays backward in time.
