About:
exifrenamer is a macOS utility designed to automate the renaming of digital media files based on their EXIF metadata. It extracts shooting details like date, time, and camera model to create organized, consistent filenames. This tool streamlines photo and video library management by replacing generic filenames with meaningful, sortable identifiers.
Key Features:
  • Batch processing for renaming multiple files simultaneously
  • Customizable filename templates using EXIF tags
  • Support for RAW, JPEG, MOV, and MP3 file formats
  • Real-time preview of new filenames before applying changes
Use Cases:
  • Organizing a large collection of photos from various cameras and trips
  • Standardizing filenames for video clips recorded on different devices
  • Preparing media files for archival or professional delivery
Alternatives:
  • A Better Finder Rename – More powerful but complex and paid; exifrenamer is focused specifically on EXIF data.
  • Adobe Lightroom – A full-featured DAM suite with renaming capabilities, whereas exifrenamer is a lightweight, standalone utility.
