Is a Camera How Others See You?
One major factor is that photos generally show us the reverse of what we see in the mirror. When you take a photo of yourself using some (but not all) apps or the front-facing camera on an iPhone, the resulting image captures your face as others see it. The same is true for non-phone cameras.

Do people see me in the mirror or camera?

But sometimes, we can't help but wonder if the image that we see in the mirror is how other people see us. Do people see me how I see myself in the mirror? In real life, people see the opposite of what you see in the mirror. This is because the mirror reverses the images that it reflects.

Which one is more accurate mirror or camera?

Camera pictures give a more accurate idea of how you appear to others. Your right side is their left side and your left side is their right side. However, in terms of looks, body composition, and stature, mirror images are more accurate.
