File Property Edit User Reviews

It did exactly what I needed

This is a simple but power batch metat data editor and it works perfectly. Just pay the $10!

Work Just Fine....

The other reviewers don't seem to be reading the discription. This app deserves a much better rating than given. It did exactly what I bought it for. And YES, you need internet when you use it unless you have paid for the app. Then it doesn't require internet any more.

Thanks for a great, easy and affordable product.

In-app purchases

Not listed as having in-app purchases, but it does have in-app purchases. And it doesn't do MP3 tag editing without a purchase.

Hard to use, and not really a Mac app

Clearly built on some other stack, like Java or Electron or QT or something. Doesn't act like a Mac app at all; can't even drag a file to the dock icon to open it.

Can't edit multiple files at once, can't use a keyboard shortcut (like ⌘O) to open/edit a file... just unintuitive and clunky all over.

Free version doesnʼt work for me

Iʼm looking for a simple utility to change the title of a mp4 file. This isnʼt it, and Iʼm not willing to spend $9.99 for a version that works. Iʼd be better off learning how to do it in Terminal. At least then Iʼd have reliability.

ABSOLUTELY WORTHLESS!!!!!

Even though I paid the $9.99 for media properties, this app doesn't even show them for the audio files I've selected, let alone offer the ability to edit them! This is a total rip off! How is this even allowed in the App Store???

My Saviour

Wow .. What an App!!! I had recorded some videos on a GoPro camera equivalent for about a week. Little did I realise that every time a changed the battery, the camera date and time stamp would be reset to 01.01.2018.

When I downloaded the one week of recording clips to my iMovie , all the clips got jumbled up.

Though I manually sorted them n finder, however I struggled a lot to arrange them in chronological order. File renaming in series did not help either. This app turned out to be my saviour and I could easily adjust the date and time using series adjust feature.

Thanks .. You saved my day.

Hard to use, but helpful.

I’m a professional photographer and I messed up by setting both of my cameras to the same time in terms of numbers, but one was AM and the other was PM. This meant the entire day was out of order. Thankfully after some quick tinkering in this app it was as if the problem never happened. Only reason it’s 4 instead of 5 stars is that the UI is really difficult to use.

When you need it, it’s wonderful

This app can be a lifesaver. If you need to edit file properties on one or a bunch of files this app will do exactly that. The user interface does a few things in non apple standard way so I give it 4* not 5. Here is an example of my need. Somehow mac OS managed to change the creation date on several hundred files in a project and them equal to modification date. That made sorting files ugly for me. But the EXIF data and the GPS data were not corrupted. I could set the creation dates on all the files to be the EXIF Digitized Date (the REAL creation date) as a fast batch job. WHEW! What a lifesaver!

I found several other uses. If you still remember your Unix command lines, and love scripting, you can get by without this tool. Maybe. If you are a mere mortal this app might be a Godsend. You might have to actually read the manual and still play around a bit. The hover descriptions are pretty good even if the icons are not always obvious.

Not very useful

Not useful for me since it can’t tag several images at once. Need to select each file separately.

Poor UI

POOR POOR User Interface. There isn’t even a Save button once you put in the updated EXIF info. Don’t download this piece of crap.

Poor User Interface, few instructions, just not helpful

I should have read the reviews since this is a bait and switch. It is listed as free but you cannot actually make any changes until you pay. I couldn’t even test the program to see if it would do what I wanted. Pity Apple allows this in their App Store.

Pity I cannot give it a ZERO

This is waste of bits- you cannot exit anything unless you pay - which might be OK if it was advertised.

Horrible Fraud of an app

This app is not free. It does NOTHING unless you pay money. They’ll let you download it for free, you can even spend time chaning the values that you’re looking to edit. But then when you go to save the output file, they ask you to fork over $10. Apple should ban apps like this.

Worked for my limited needs

I bought a dirt cheap imported drone and every video it records is marked as created and modified on October 1, 2013. All I needed was an app to let me change the created and modified dates to the correct dates. This app worked for that and the free version allowed me to apply/save the changes.

I have not tried it beyond this so I can’t speak to any of the other reviewers’ complaints.

If/when I use it for other things, I will update my review.

Program does nothing

Program does nothing

Free version is worthless

I downloaded this “free” app to edit some id3 tags in mp3 files. When I tried to save my changes, the only option was to purchase a $9.99 upgrade of the program. Why even bother making a free version? Total bait and switch.

Bait and Switch, bad developer

App requires you to in-app purchase the “Apply Changes” function. Without buying, this app is useless.

Needs internet

Tried to use it on the train and found unless I had an internet connection the UI refused to load. Since there are other ways to edit attributes I am removing this application.
