A Better Finder Rename is the most comprehensive file renaming solution for the Macintosh and transforms the tedious and time-consuming task of renaming multiple files into a simple matter of seconds.

The new version is the result of 10 years of listening to our customers in the digital photography, post-production and content creation domains.

The simple, easy-to-use interface makes it accessible to anyone, but hides an abundance of powerful renaming options.

A Better Finder Rename is the preferred renaming tool of many professional and amateur photographers and has over time grown an impressive array of features dedicated to manipulating sequence numbers (create sequence number lists, add and insert sequence numbers, pad them with 0s, add & substract from the existing numbers) and adding shooting dates & times to picture names.

In these operations you can exploit the shooting date & time extracted from the industry-standard EXIF digital camera meta-data stored in your JPEG, CRW, CR2 or NEF pictures.

Starting with version 7.0, you can combine several rename actions into a multi-step rename. This allows you to perform even the most complex renaming jobs in a single pass.

A Better Finder Rename allows you to create as many rename steps as you require and lets you edit and re-arrange them at will.
