Pictures taken with front camera when sending them through WhatsApp turns upside down

Unfortunately the camera settings changes do not solve the issue. I tried changing them. Same problem.

Go to your camera setting and change the front camera mirrored setting off.

this should resolve your issue.

And update for you. I reached out to WhatsApp with this issue. After 8 messages from them, I realized that they don’t know what’s happening either. They recommended to redownload the app. Didn’t fix the issue. They recommended to turn the phone off and back on, still not fixed. It’s been mumm from them after that recommendation.

Omg!! Mine is doing the same too!!!!

My wife noticed this issue today on her iphone; while checking I could see that it was happening to my iphone too. Same for Whatsapp Messenger and Whatsapp Business. There was as update for WhatApp Messenger (v24.8.85) in app store. Installed it and it fixed the issue for both messenger and business.

You will need to contact WhatsApp for help with their software, this is not an Apple product.

Here is a link to their help page.

I have just managed to fix this problem by uninstalling WhatsApp and reinstalling it. Most of my info was saved to the cloud so I didn’t lose much in doing so.

Have the exact same issue and yes, it's not a problem from the the phone itself or the camera app settings, it's specifically a problem with WhatsApp. Have tried sending same pic through ig and other apps with no issue, only WhatsApp. Also, as stated above turning phone on and off, or reloading WhatsApp won't fix the issue, probably a glitch from their latest version.

See the pic below on my iPhone 12 Pro iOS 17.4.1

When I take selfie and sent through what’s app it is inverted

this didn’t work for me.

The update I got from App store for Whatsapp fixed it for me, finally!!!
