Is it possible to view image names in iPad Photos?

Is there a setting to see the file name on my iPad photos(eg. IMG_0001). I can see the names on my desktop, but not on iPad.

You may want to send a feature request to Apple. It would be very useful, if we could see the filenames or titles/captions below the thumbnails, like on a Mac. It is still not possible on the iPad, the iPhone, or on the Vision Pro. You can use the feedback form: Photos for iOS - Feedback - Apple

Here's and example of the Info window that markwmsn referred to:

The first line is the Caption which I had entered. The caption is searchable, so I tried to include things I might search for.


The filename is below the date in the info window.


In Photos on a Mac, the title appears beneath the thumbnail image, but the title doesn't appear in iOS. In the absence of a Title, the filename is shown below thumbnails in Mac Photos.


In Mac's Finder, which is a File Manager, not a photo manager, the filename appears below thumbnail icons.
