All terms and policiesWhy this exists
Still retyping file names one at a time?
Getting documents and photos into a consistent naming format takes longer the more files you have, and typos creep in. APOUL Rename shows you the new names first, checks for clashes, and then renames them all at once.
What it does
What it does.
Name PDFs from their contents
Match what a PDF says against your staff list to name it. When two people share a name, it asks you to choose.
Clashes caught first
Before anything changes, it checks that no two files would end up with the same name.
Undo from history
Restore earlier names from the history. Even if the app stops midway, it can return files to how they were.
Photo and music details
Use the date a photo was taken, or a song’s title and artist, in the name.
Watch a folder
Tidy files that arrive in a chosen folder according to your rules (automatic runs are off by default).
Results as CSV
Export the results as a CSV file for your records.
