### 5/5 — Really good

*2026-08-16*

Makes things so efficient while organizing files, simple and effective. One thing I think would be great is a feature to add words ‘behind’ the  numbers. Other than that, this is a crazy good app for sure.

### 5/5 — One Great App

*2026-07-25*

This app is great! It does what I wanted and more. Spend the $3.99, you won't be sorry.

### 5/5 — Feature request: regex capture groups

*2026-06-27*

Hello, I was wondering if you could add the ability for one to use regular expression capture groups in the renaming process. For example, the following would be extremely extremely useful:

Filename: 
application_2026-05-02-export.zip

Search:
(.+)_(\d{2})-(\d{2})-(\d{4})(?:.*)

Rename:
$4-$2-$3_$1.zip

Result:
2026-05-02_application.zip

This would amazing if you could do this. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Updated from 1 Star to 5

*2026-05-04*

The first time I tried this app was completely disappointing, and I thought it would be just another abandoned app.  I’m very happy to have found I was wrong.
I have now given a 5 star because it works and has several useful features, but I do think it could stand to be further developed.  I was able to accomplish what I wanted, but I did need to play with it for a few minutes first.  I think some would find it to be confusing if they had not used a program like this before.
I very much appreciate the preview automatically adapting on the control screen for how the settings chosen will change the file name.

**Developer response:** Please update the app, this issue was fixed months ago. We've also improved the renaming logic and overall reliability since then.

### 5/5 — Great tool against annoying suffixes

*2026-04-07*

My graphics software by default adds an automatic suffix to files exported in a certain resolution.
With this app they were all gone in seconds - awesome!

### 5/5 — Very Useful

*2026-03-26*

I use this for managing collections of shows on my iPad, very useful.

### 5/5 — 優秀

*2026-02-20*

普通に神。100個以上のファイルを一気にナンバリングできる。元のファイル名を完全に消すのも一瞬だし、元のファイル名の最初とか最後に任意の文字列を挿入できるのもデカイ。日本語対応しててUIも分かりやすい
初期の挙動は若干戸惑うけど、
ファイル選択→右下のブラウズをタップ→左上の戻るボタン→リネームしたいファイルを開く→右上の開くボタン
でリネームできるようになる。

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-02-16*

A comprehensive and well designed application, and a responsive developer.

### 5/5 — All’s Well in the World—of Apple Books—with Renamer

*2026-02-09*

At first I couldn’t understand why I couldn’t do a simple find and replace but I figured it out. I replaced the added text I was getting to each file—1,500 of them—when downloading books, articles, reference papers, etc into my Apple Books app. I spent two days trying to create a shortcut in Apple Shortcuts but couldn’t do it…even with Claude or Gemini. It took less than 30 seconds to do a find/replace action and BOOM all my Books were name changed, and I removed all the _  (underscore symbols) that had been added to my file names. I did download Batch Rename app—and paid 5$ for it, but that app DID NOT WORK.

### 5/5 — Trazendo funcionalidade de PC para o iPad

*2026-01-09*

Uma funcionalidade que antes era somente de pc windows agora feita de uma forma tão incrível, com integração nativa com os arquivos e com tantas funcionalidades de renomear é sensacional. O app não trava, e não apresenta nenhum problema mesmo que em grandes sets de arquivos. O app não acessa os arquivos de nenhuma maneira e somente os renomeia. Aplicativo super recomendado
