PhotoRex - Edit Dates in Bulk

PhotoRex is a powerful date editor. You can redate files in bulk, shift timestamps, automatically derive dates from filenames, and even use OCR to read dates stamped directly on your photos and movies. In addition to date editing, PhotoRex also supports batch rename, format conversion as well as customizable watermarks and timestamps.

Redate & Fix Timelines PhotoRex helps you correct the chronological order of your library. You can manually assign a specific date and time to a group of photos or use automated tools to do it for you. The app can derive dates directly from filenames or use AI (OCR) to "read" date stamps visible in an image or the first few frames of a video.

Batch Renaming Turn generic system filenames into something more useful. You can rename hundreds of files at once using custom text and automated counters (e.g., "File_01," "File_02"). A real-time preview ensures your new names look exactly right before you export.

Time Offsets If your camera clock was set incorrectly or you traveled between time zones, you can shift the timestamps of a batch of photos forward or backward by a specific number of minutes or hours. This keeps your entire gallery perfectly in sync.

Format Conversion You can change the file format of your media in bulk. The app supports high-quality conversion between JPEG, PNG, and HEIC, making it easy to prepare files for different platforms or save storage space.

Text & Timestamp Watermarks Add context or protection to your images. You can burn the original "Date Taken" timestamp directly onto the photo—ideal for documentation or a vintage aesthetic—or apply custom text overlays across the entire batch.

Safe, Non-Destructive Editing The app prioritizes the safety of your media. It never modifies your original files; instead, it creates new copies with your changes applied. You can then export these as new files.

Designed for Privacy and Speed Local Processing: All edits happen on your device. Your photos and videos are never uploaded to a server. Hybrid Batches: Process photos and videos together in a single workflow.

*Free mode limits the number of files that can be processed at a time, please use in-app purchase to remove limitations.
