Online Mirror
Use your webcam as a free online mirror. Allow camera access below - nothing is recorded or uploaded.
Your camera feed is never recorded, stored, or sent anywhere. It runs entirely in your browser.
Online Mirror
The online mirror turns your webcam feed into a live virtual mirror you can view directly in your browser. Unlike a standard camera app, the image is flipped horizontally so it looks like the reflection you see in a physical mirror, with left and right as you expect them.
It is useful for checking your appearance quickly without needing a camera app, taking a photo, or standing in front of a physical mirror. No login, no download, and no signup are required.
How to Use the Online Mirror
Open the page on any device with a webcam. Allow browser access to your camera when prompted. The live feed appears immediately, already flipped to mirror orientation.
To go fullscreen, click the Fullscreen button. To switch between front and rear cameras on a phone or tablet, use the camera toggle. To flip the image manually, use the flip control.
Why Is the Image Flipped?
Physical mirrors reverse the image left to right, so you are used to seeing yourself that way. A standard camera image is not flipped, which is why you often look different in photos compared to what you see in a mirror. This tool applies a horizontal flip by default so the view matches what you expect.
Some people prefer to see the unflipped camera view to understand how they appear to others. The flip control lets you toggle between both orientations.
Is It Private?
Yes. Your webcam feed is processed entirely in your browser using the WebRTC API. No video frames are sent to any server, recorded, or stored in any form. The browser requires explicit permission before accessing your camera, and you can revoke that permission at any time through your browser settings.
When to Use an Online Mirror
Common uses include checking hair, makeup, and clothing before a video call, adjusting lighting or camera angle, and verifying your background. It is also useful during presentations or streaming setup when you need a quick visual check without opening a separate app.
Teachers and presenters use it to confirm what the camera is showing before going live. Content creators use it to preview how they look on camera before recording begins. If you also want to check your screen for dead or stuck pixels before a video call, the dead pixel test runs a quick display check.
Front vs Rear Camera Mode
On mobile devices, the front camera is typically lower resolution but positioned for selfies and video calls. The rear camera offers higher resolution and is useful for checking details that are difficult to see with the front camera.
This tool supports both and lets you switch between them with a single tap. On desktop computers, most built-in webcams are fixed and the camera toggle will not produce a change.
