Sometimes you end up taking photos that are reflected horizontally. This is quite common when taking selfies.. Do you want to change the direction of a photo (or a face)? Here's how to flip photos on iPhone and iPad.
The photo editor on the iPhone and iPad comes with a built-in tool to flip photos horizontally. (sideways). It's the fastest way to flip mirrored selfies. But if you want to flip the photos vertically (upside down), you will need to use a free third-party app like Photoshop Express. We will cover both methods below.
