Bulk Image Rename — Free, Fast & Private

Most batch image tools leave you with a folder full of compressed-IMG_1234.jpg, compressed-IMG_1235.jpg… that you then have to manually rename one by one. MiniPx solves this with template tokens that produce predictable, sortable, meaningful filenames the moment you hit Download.

Available tokens include the original filename ({name}), output dimensions ({width}, {height}), format ({format}), three-digit sequence ({seq}), compact date ({date8}), and padded variants ({seq2}, {seq4}). Compose them into any pattern.

Common useful templates

  • product-{seq3}-{width}px.{ext}product-001-1280px.webp
  • {date8}-{name}.{ext}20260526-summer-shoot.jpg
  • hero-{seq2}-{format}.{ext}hero-01-avif.avif
  • {name}-{width}x{height}.{ext}landscape-1920x1080.webp

Privacy-friendly default

By default MiniPx strips the original filename and uses minipx-{seq}-{date8}.{ext}. This prevents accidentally leaking sensitive filenames (e.g. Aadhaar_Card_John.jpg) into form uploads where the filename is logged. Pro users can opt back into name-preserving templates per session.

Bulk renaming for designers and developers

Template-based renaming makes the most difference when you're producing responsive image sets — see the responsive-set tool — because one input becomes 12 outputs (4 sizes × 3 formats). Without templates you'd manually rename 12 files; with hero-{width}.{ext} they auto-name into hero-150.webp, hero-640.webp, etc. Drop the ZIP straight into your public/img/ folder.

How it works

  1. Drop your images: Open the MiniPx compressor on the homepage. Drop a batch of images.
  2. Open the rename panel: Scroll down to the rename templates section. Pick a preset or type your own pattern using {name}, {width}, {seq}, {date8}.
  3. Compress + download: Hit Compress. Every output file follows your template. Download individually or as a ZIP.

Frequently asked questions

What tokens are available?
{name} for original filename, {width} and {height} for dimensions, {format} for the format name, {ext} for the extension, {seq} (3-digit zero-padded), {seq2}, {seq4} for padding variants, and {date8} for compact YYYYMMDD.
Is bulk rename free or Pro?
Free tier gets the default privacy-friendly template. Pro tier unlocks custom templates and name-preserving patterns. The free preview lets you try Pro templates on one batch.
Can I save my favourite template?
Yes, Pro tier has saved presets that bundle template + format + quality + size into a one-click reusable preset.
Does the rename work for ZIP exports too?
Yes. The template applies to every file in the ZIP. Open the ZIP and every file is correctly named — no second pass needed.
What if my template produces a duplicate filename?
Use {seq} or {seq2} in the template to ensure uniqueness across the batch. The sequence number increments per file.
