Bulk File Renamer
“400 photos called IMG_4471 — make them Wedding-001, Wedding-002.”
Four hundred photos called IMG_4471. Scans called Document(3). Every other tool that fixes this is a program you have to install. This one is a file you double-click, and it shows you every new name before it touches a thing.
- Seven rules you can stack: swap text, strip junk, number, date-stamp and more
- Every old name shown beside its new one before anything happens
- Reads the real date a photo was taken, not just the file date
- Renames in place on Chrome and Edge; hands back a zip everywhere else
- The file type is never touched, and duplicate names are handled for you
- This one is finished and tested — not on the build list
- It will be $9, same as every other tool
- One email when it goes up, no list, no spam
Three steps, then you're done
Drag a whole folder in, or pick the files yourself.
Applied top to bottom. Strip the IMG_ rubbish, number them, stamp the date.
Nothing happens until you press the button. Fiddle with the rules as long as you like.
Questions
Do I need to install anything?
No. Each tool is a single file. Double-click it and it opens in Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox — whichever you already have. No account, no password, no software.
Does anything get uploaded?
No. Your numbers and files never leave your computer — the tools have no way to send them and no internet connection is needed to run them. You can switch your wi-fi off and they still work.
I'm not good with computers. Is this too hard?
The first thing every tool does is walk you through it in five short screens with pictures. Then there's a button that fills it with example numbers so you can watch it work before touching anything.
Will it work on my phone?
Yes. Email yourself the file and open the attachment, or drop the files in iCloud Drive, Dropbox or Google Drive and open them from there — then they're on every device you own.
