How to flip your camera

Make sure your text displays the right way around in your webcam recordings. ‍ 🤲

This means text on your whiteboard, book or backdrop is readable and not mirrored in your Loom video.

Platform

‍Loom desktop app

Open the recording menu, click on the three little dots in the upper corner to open your menu.
Click on Preferences.
Toggle on or off the Flip camera option for your desired effect.

💡 For text to appear the correct way around, ensure Flip Camera is toggled off.

Loom Chrome extension

Open the Loom Chrome Extension, click Show advanced options.
Check or uncheck the Flip Camera option for your desired effect.

💡 For text to appear the correct way around on camera, ensure Flip Camera is unchecked.

⚠️Please note
It is not possible to flip your recording after you've recorded, so make sure you enable the flip camera option prior to recording your video.

The iOS mobile app does not have a flip option for the front-facing camera, but if you use the rear-facing camera, your text will record properly.
