Find naming problems
Filename Doctor can flag findings such as possible sequence gaps. The example inspects 20 demo photo copies.
Keep a way back
The rename log lists old and new names, and Undo is available for the last batch. The example uses photo copies and shows the log with Undo available.
Free tools on your Mac
Free local tools
Renaming, recipes, Filename Doctor, Undo, and updates are free and do not need an account.
Apple labels on your Mac
Apple labels identify objects and scenes locally for free. They cannot read text or describe what is happening.
Optional hosted naming is separate from the free local tools. When that service is available for your account, it needs a connected Twig & Olive account and uses cloud usage.
Fits your workflow
Made for your Mac
Use macOS 14 or later on an Apple silicon or Intel Mac.
More than photos
Rename any kind of file. Save a naming setup as a recipe and repeat it on another folder.
Naming, not conversion
The Filenameinator 2.0 does not resize or convert files. HEIC and HEIF photos are supported without converting them.
