Online Mirror
Use your webcam or phone camera as a free online mirror. Switch between mirrored and unmirrored views, zoom, adjust brightness, rotate, freeze, and go fullscreen—video stays local.
- Browser capability-dependent
- Camera only after Start
- No test result history
- No account or upload
Important
- Mirror, fit, zoom, brightness, and rotation change only this page's display, not camera hardware or another app's output.
- Video stays in the local browser preview; the tool does not request a microphone, record, capture photos, download media, upload frames, or save result history.
Video only · No microphone · No recording · No upload · No account
The camera opens only after you start the mirror and is released when stopped or when this page closes. This page does not take photos.
Camera: Not active
Preview: Stopped
Orientation: Mirrored · 0°
View: Fill · 1.00× · 100% brightness
Fit shows the whole camera frame and may leave margins. Fill covers the mirror area and may crop edges. Display zoom and preview brightness change only this page.
Freeze view pauses only this page's displayed preview; it does not take a photo or turn off the camera. Stop camera releases the video track. Fullscreen and all view controls affect this page only.
What is an online mirror?
An online mirror uses a webcam or phone camera to show a live self-view in the browser. DeviceMetrik displays that video locally and lets you choose how this page presents it.
Mirror view
Horizontally flips the preview so it behaves like the familiar reflection used for positioning and appearance checks.
Unmirrored view
Removes this page's horizontal flip. It can help inspect text, gestures, or left/right orientation, but it does not reproduce an optical non-reversing mirror or guarantee exact real-world appearance.
Quick appearance and framing checks
- Appearance: check hair, clothing, makeup, or grooming.
- Before a call: inspect framing, background, and camera angle.
- Orientation: compare familiar mirror movement with an unmirrored page view.
Need a different camera check?
Use Webcam Test for browser-reported settings, decoded-frame and preview-cadence evidence, and a local snapshot. Preparing for a meeting? Use Video Call Test for camera, microphone, speaker, and local voice playback together.
How to use
- Choose a camera while idle, or keep the front / selfie camera preference. This does not request permission.
- Select Start online mirror and allow camera access when the browser asks.
- Choose Mirror view or Unmirrored view, then use Fit or Fill, display zoom, preview brightness, and rotation to arrange this page's self-view.
- Freeze a ready view to inspect a pose or detail; Resume live view returns to the moving preview without restarting the camera.
- Switch cameras while live if needed. The current stream is released before the selected source opens.
- Select Stop camera when finished so the browser releases the video track.
What the result means
- The preview is a browser-rendered self-view from the active camera. Mirror view applies this page's horizontal flip; Unmirrored view removes that presentation flip.
- Fit shows the entire camera frame and may leave empty space. Fill covers the preview area and may crop frame edges.
- Display zoom, preview brightness, and rotation are page presentation adjustments. They do not change the camera, its driver, room lighting, or settings in meeting apps.
- Freeze pauses only the displayed video element. It is not a photo, saved result, recording, or diagnostic measurement.
Limitations
- This is a flexible live mirror, not a camera diagnostic. Use Webcam Test for browser-reported settings, delivered-frame observations, and a local snapshot workflow.
- The page cannot guarantee how Zoom, Meet, Teams, recording software, or another viewer will crop, mirror, rotate, brighten, or transmit the camera output.
- Digital zoom can soften the visible image, Fill can crop edges, and browser display brightness does not improve the light reaching the sensor.
- Camera labels and available inputs depend on what the browser exposes, often only after permission is granted.
- No microphone is requested. The page does not record, capture photos, download media, upload frames, or keep result history.
Troubleshooting
- The browser reports that camera permission is denied
- Allow camera access for devicemetrik.com in browser site settings, confirm no system privacy control is blocking it, then try again.
- No camera appears or the selected camera cannot start
- Reconnect or enable the camera, close another app that may be using it, then retry. A browser error does not by itself prove hardware failure.
- The preview is cropped or movement feels reversed
- Choose Fit to see the full frame, or choose Mirror view / Unmirrored view. These controls affect only this page.
- The preview stopped after changing tabs or a track ended
- Return to the page and select Start online mirror again. An interrupted stream is released before a fresh preview begins.

FAQ
How do I use my webcam as an online mirror?
Choose a camera if needed, select Start online mirror, allow video access, and use Mirror view for a familiar reflection. Fit, Fill, display zoom, preview brightness, rotation, Freeze, and Fullscreen adjust only this page's live self-view.
Is this online mirror free?
Yes. DeviceMetrik does not require an account or payment to use this browser mirror.
Does Online Mirror record or upload my camera?
No. It requests a video track only after Start and displays that stream locally in the page. It has no recording, snapshot, download, upload, microphone, or saved-history workflow.
Why is the image reversed, and what changes in Unmirrored view?
Mirror view horizontally flips this page's preview so movement feels like a familiar physical reflection. Unmirrored view removes that page-level flip, which is useful for checking text, gestures, or left/right orientation. Other apps may present the camera differently.
Is Unmirrored view the same as a true or non-reversing mirror?
Online camera tools sometimes use “true mirror” or “non-reversing mirror” for an unmirrored camera view. Here, Unmirrored view only removes this page's horizontal presentation flip. It is not an optical non-reversing mirror and cannot correct camera lens, perspective, distance, cropping, or another app's processing.
Can I use this mirror on a phone or switch cameras?
It can work on a phone or computer when the browser exposes camera access. Available labels, front or rear sources, and switching behavior depend on the browser and device. Selecting another input while live releases the old stream before opening the new one.
Should I use Online Mirror or Webcam Test?
Use Online Mirror for a flexible self-view. Use Webcam Test when you need browser-reported capture settings, preview cadence observations, or a local unmirrored snapshot.
