Bulk renaming tools for your iPad

Like all feature requests, when we were asked for bulk/batch rename we wanted to give you the tools for the job that give you power and flexibility.

Renaming hundreds of files at once on your iPad, Computer or in the Cloud has never been easier.

Let's show you how to rename multiple files on your iPad using Filebrowser's Bulk rename tools.

Add Text

You can add text to the beginning or the end of all the files you selected. For example "Presentation_Filename.pdf" or "Filename_Presentation.pdf".

Find and Replace

Find and replace words within your file names. For example you could bulk rename all ".jpeg" files to ".jpg" files or replace "_DCS" as the prefix for all your files and change it to "IMG_".

This method would preserve existing image numbers in the filename.

Format

"IMG_0.jpg" Index
"IMG_0000.jpg" Counter
"IMG_2018-09-27 at 15.46.36.jpg" Date
