Bulk Image Renamer

Rename a batch of images in one go

Camera and phone file names like IMG_4832.JPG or PXL_20260918_101512.jpg say nothing about the content, and inconsistent names make folders hard to sort and upload. Renaming dozens of files one by one in a file manager is slow.

This tool renames up to 200 images at once and packs them into a ZIP. Choose a pattern, preview the new names, fix any individual name by hand, and download. The image data is copied byte for byte, so quality and metadata stay exactly as they were.

Naming modes

Why people rename images in bulk

• Product catalogs. Name photos after SKUs or product lines before uploading to a store.

• Client deliveries. Hand over neatly numbered files instead of camera names.

• Website assets. Use descriptive, lowercase names that are easier to manage.

• Project archives. Add a date or project prefix so folders sort logically.

Nothing is re-encoded

Renaming only changes the file name inside the ZIP. The image bytes are copied exactly, so there is no quality loss and EXIF metadata such as capture date, camera and location stays intact. That also makes the tool fast, even with large RAW-sized JPEGs.

The original extension is kept. If two files end up with the same name, the tool adds _1, _2 and so on to the later ones, so nothing is overwritten inside the ZIP.

Good naming conventions

Zero padding keeps files in the right order: with three digits, 002 sorts before 010, while 2 would sort after 10 in many file managers. Use enough digits for your batch: two for up to 99 files, three for up to 999.

For images that will be published online, prefer lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens or underscores, and avoid spaces and special characters.

• Good: 20260918_wedding_014.jpg
• Avoid: Final FINAL (2) copy.jpg

Tips for renaming

• Add files in the order you want them numbered; they are numbered in list order.
• Remove any file from the list with its x button before downloading.
• Date + number uses today's date, not the date the photo was taken.
• Unzip the download into a new folder to keep originals separate.
