If you take selfies from your iPhone, you might have noticed the final picture is a flipped version of the original one. That's is, the left side of the picture becomes the right side and vice versa. This feature makes sure the final image is more intuitive and closer to what you really looked like at the moment the photo was taken. However, if you prefer the mirrored version more than the natural version, iOS 14 now gives you the option to do that as well. Let's see how.

Before iOS 14, if you wanted to have mirrored selfies then your only option was to manually flip the images using the inbuilt editor in the Photos app. If you want to flip the image after you've captured it, open the Photos app and tap the image you want to flip. Tap the Edit button on the top right corner and select the crop function from the bottom. edit the image and select the crop function On the top left corner, you'd find the flip button, tap the flip button on the top left corner to mirror your Selfie and select Done. tap flip vertically to mirror your selfie
