Make sure to assign names that will be recognizable to you and easy to search for. Include keywords that are related to the content, like the location or date. Create a folder system to easily organize and store photos, videos, and files. Ensure the folder is easy to understand and the related files are stacked together in a single folder. While you want your file names to be meaningful, you should also be mindful of the file size. Try to keep file names as short as possible. Adding the date to the file name helps to organize your files chronologically. If you are using spaces to separate words in the file name, capitalize the first letter of each word to make the file name easier to read. To ensure easy access and retrieval of your files, create a consistent naming pattern and stick to it. This will allow you to easily locate a file that you need without having to search through thousands of files. Be careful not to use any special characters (like symbols or emojis) when renaming your photos and videos. These can easily be mistaken and make it more difficult to find what you’re looking for.

Taking the time to properly organize and name your photos, videos, and files are essential for future use. Signing off… So, there you have it. You can now easily rename photos, videos, and files on iPhone and iPad to keep them organized and simpler to find.
