Rename Photos 1.14

The Rename Photos application offers an efficient solution for renaming photo and video files based on their date of capture. It allows users to convert file names from serial numbers to date-time format and vice versa, enhancing organization and retrieval.

• No risk of overwriting existing photos and videos.
• Designed for time efficiency; quick and user-friendly.
• Compatible with both internal storage and SD cards.
• Supports reverse renaming for flexibility in file management.

This application provides a valuable tool for users seeking to manage their digital media. When utilizing the Expert format, videos are arranged alphabetically among photos, rather than being isolated at the end of the list. It maintains a consistent numeric sequence, renaming files to match a serial number based on acquisition dates, even in cases where files are added or deleted. Moreover, it effectively sorts imported files by either date or serial number.

Users can easily toggle between renaming formats:

Standard:

• Photos: img_DATE_TIME.jpg, dsc_SERIAL_NO.jpg (e.g. IMG_20190615_124530.jpg, DSC_1234.jpg)
• Videos: vid_DATE_TIME.mp4, mov_SERIAL_NO.mp4 (e.g. IMG_20190615_124530.mp4, MOV_1234.mp4)

Expert:

• Photos: DATE_TIME.jpg, SERIAL_NO.jpg (e.g. 2019-06-15_12-45-30.jpg, 001234.jpg)
• Videos: DATE_TIME.mp4, SERIAL_NO.mp4 (e.g. 2019-06-15_12-45-30.mp4, 001234.mp4)
• This expert format enhances organization, allowing videos to be positioned alphabetically with photos.

The Rename Photos app is particularly beneficial for users with large collections of digital media. It addresses common concerns such as unwanted file overwriting during backups, the need for descriptive titles featuring date and time, and efficient file management practices. While suitable for all brands, it is noted to perform exceptionally well on Sony and HTC devices.
