Garbage

App opens in Spanish language only, despite device AND app settings being set to English.

Developer tells me to open the app (which OPENS IN SPANISH), navigate its interface (which OPENS IN SPANISH), go to settings and change the language to English. My question to the developer: “If I don’t know Spanish, how tf am I supposed to navigate to the settings and change the app’s language???”

Maybe think through your (pathetic) response a little more deeply before responding with a solution that contains just as much friction as the problem.

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for bringing this to our attention. English is the default base language of BatchRename, and the app fully supports English across both iOS and macOS. If your interface loaded in Spanish, you can switch it directly to English at any time: Open the app and tap/click the Settings (gear icon). Select Language and choose English. On iOS, you can also set the preferred language under iOS Settings → BatchRename → Preferred Language → English. If you give BatchRename another try and run into any issues, please reach out to us at https://foryoursoft.com/support and we will gladly help you right away!

Useless

Doesn’t rename files. They are exactly as before. Paying for the pro version seems to be the only function that works

Help or bug

Hello, when executing the rename on iOS, no action happens after I click confirm? There is no history saved nor are the files renamed. It doesn't matter whether the files are in iCloud or on my iPhone. When clicking rename, each file flickers, but nothing happens.

Could you add a feature which allows one to choose whether the files are renamed in place or they are duplicated?

The "duplicate file" quick action doesn't work.

I also bought the full package. This app is very awesome.

Thanks

Edit: It has worked for me if I share a folder from the files app rather than open a folder from within the app

Can you add capture groups in the regex search and replace feature? It would be very helpful to be able to use $1, $2, etc

keeps crashing

this app keeps crashing when running under 10.15.5 Catalina. was this tested?

Works but it’s SO SLOW

All I wanted to do was append some characters on some video files. This application was doing it, but one file per 10 seconds or so. Gave up after 2 mins and force quit and did it manually.
