A Better Finder Rename

About

A Better Finder Rename is a batch file renamer for Mac that lets you rename hundreds of files, photos and music tracks in one pass, with every new name shown in a preview before anything changes. You can number files in shooting order, put capture dates into names read from EXIF data across common RAW, JPEG and HEIC formats, rename from a pasted spreadsheet or CSV list, and stack multiple steps such as replacing text, adding dates and numbering. Music files can be renamed from ID3 and other tags, and power users can use regular expressions, file pairing and a saved rename log. The app runs from the Finder, droplets or Quick Actions, handles folders of hundreds of thousands of files, and keeps conflicting names in date order.

The program is sold as a one-time purchase rather than a subscription, with a free trial that renames 10 files at a time and a 60-day money-back guarantee. Version 12.36 supports macOS 15 through macOS 27 on Intel and Apple silicon, and older versions are available for earlier systems. Licence options include single-user, family, and small business or enterprise tiers, plus a forever upgrade option. Version 12 is free for purchases made on or after 1 January 2023.
