What is a webcam mirror?

A webcam mirror is a tool that displays your webcam feed with a horizontal flip, creating a mirror-like reflection. Unlike a regular webcam view where movements appear reversed (moving your right hand appears on the left side of the screen), a mirrored view shows movements as you would see them in a physical mirror. This natural orientation makes it easier to check your appearance, adjust your position, or perform tasks that require visual feedback.

Tool description

The Webcam Mirror tool provides an instant, full-width mirrored view of your webcam feed directly in your browser. It automatically connects to your default front-facing camera and starts streaming immediately—no buttons to click or settings to configure. The tool requests camera permissions once and remembers them for future visits, making it as quick and convenient as glancing at a real mirror.
