Frequently Asked Questions
How do I organize photos into folders?
Choose a local photo folder, select an organization method such as date, available location metadata, camera, or event grouping, and preview the proposed structure before applying it. Keep a backup before moving important files.
What is a useful folder structure for photos?
A year/month structure is a dependable starting point because most photos include a capture date. Event or location subfolders can be useful when reliable metadata is available, but no single structure fits every library.
Will organizing photos move my original files?
Yes. Applying an organization plan can create folders and move files into the selected structure. Review the preview first and keep a separate backup of important photos.
What if a photo has no date or location metadata?
The organizer uses available metadata and may fall back to file dates or a general group. Older scans, edited files, and downloaded images can have incomplete or inaccurate metadata, so review the proposed placement.
Are my photos uploaded while folders are organized?
No. Selected photo contents are processed locally for organization and are not uploaded. Limited account, usage, analytics, licensing, and support data may be handled as described in the privacy policy.
How many photos can I organize?
The applicable allowance is shown inside the application and can depend on account or supporter status. Processing time also depends on the number and size of files and the performance of your computer.
