How to Flip Facebook Live Video

June 2, 2017 By Shane Eubanks 4 Comments

So you just went live on facebook to show your new book, product, t-shirt, etc and you, along with everyone else, noticed that all of your text was backwards. You fumble through the “oh shoot, sorry guys” and then didn’t know how to fix it. Well, here is exactly how to flip Facebook Live videos so that your text is no longer backwards! Below, I walk through this feature on my iPhone using the iOS version of facebook to show you step-by-step how easy it is to fix this issue.

Check out the short video I created below to reveal exactly how to horizontally flip Facebook Live videos to fix backward text on iPhones and iPads.

Tutorial – How to Fix Backward Text in Facebook Live Videos

Here is the easy way to turn Facebook Live videos horizontally so that people can read the words in your videos. Before you tap that pretty blue “Go Live” button, make sure you flip your video first. This will keep you from awkwardly pausing and tapping buttons during your live vid.

  1. Magic Wand Icon – The very first thing you need to do is tap the magic wand icon on the top-left of your screen.

  3. Horizontal Flip – Now just click “Horizontal Flip” and you’ll immediately see the screen switch and show all of your words and text the way that it should look! Yay! No more backward text, no more apologizing, and no more awkward moments in your facebook videos (well, hopefully not..heh)!
