Name or rename videos

Is there an updated or improved way or better workaround than saving to Files for renaming videos?


I’m a musician and a ton of my videos and pics sent to me all look the same, but they’re different songs. I would love to order them by title or band or musician I’m performing with, etc.


Thanks!!

Hello SailorMama,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities!


We understand that you want to know if there is a better way of saving videos and pics that are sent to you so you can change the name of them instead of the Files app. We're happy to provide you with a suggestion.


You could save the videos and pictures to iCloud Drive instead of Files so that you can rename these files. Below is the article about iCloud drive.
