What goes wrong
Ray-Ban Meta exports can arrive with names such as video-277_singular_display.MOV. Those names do not tell you the recording date, time, or sequence, which makes a large batch painful to organize before editing.
Ray-Ban Meta file renamer for Mac
Fix messy Meta glasses filenames. Sort every clip by time.
CaptureSort was built to solve the frustrating file-name problem created when Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses export photos and videos with names that do not clearly show when they were recorded. It reads the real capture timestamp and creates clean, chronological filenames in seconds.

Made for the Meta glasses workflow
Stop guessing which Ray-Ban Meta clip came first.
CaptureSort is targeted at the exact problem Meta glasses owners face after exporting a large recording session: many files, unclear names, and no obvious chronological order.
Fast, safe and transparent
A Ray-Ban Meta video organizer that shows you exactly what will happen.
CaptureSort does not blindly rename a folder. It gives you a complete preview first.
Drop an entire recording session
Drag a batch of Meta glasses MOV files directly into the app or use the native Mac file picker.
Reads the real capture time
Uses the embedded content-created date instead of relying on the export filename or Finder’s file order.
Chronological filenames
Builds clear names with the manufacturer, date and exact time so footage sorts from first recorded to last.
Preview every result
See the original name, detected camera, capture time and proposed filename before any file is changed.
Protect the originals
Keep copy mode enabled to create renamed duplicates while leaving every original Meta glasses file untouched.
No accidental overwriting
If a destination name already exists, CaptureSort adds a numbered suffix rather than replacing the existing file.
Not limited to Meta glasses
Use CaptureSort with virtually any camera that stores capture metadata.
Ray-Ban Meta glasses inspired the app, but the renaming engine is camera-neutral. It can organize media from phones, action cameras, mirrorless cameras, DSLRs and other devices when the files contain readable manufacturer and capture-time metadata.

How to rename Meta glasses videos by date
Three steps from random exports to an organized timeline.
Export and add the files
Move your Ray-Ban Meta photos or videos to your Mac, then drag the entire batch into CaptureSort.
Check the capture-time preview
Confirm the detected RAYBAN manufacturer, recording timestamp and proposed chronological filename.
Create copies or rename
Keep the originals safe by making renamed copies, or turn copy mode off to rename the source files directly.
Your Meta glasses footage stays on your Mac.
CaptureSort reads metadata and handles filenames locally. Your private photos and videos are not uploaded to a website, AI service or cloud-processing system.
Frequently asked questions
Ray-Ban Meta file-renaming questions.
How do I rename Ray-Ban Meta videos by recording date?
Drop the exported files into CaptureSort. The app reads the embedded capture timestamp, previews a chronological filename, and can create renamed copies or rename the originals.
Does CaptureSort work with Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer Gen 2?
CaptureSort is designed to organize media exported from Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses, including Wayfarer models, by reading the capture metadata stored in the media file.
What filename does it create?
A typical Ray-Ban Meta file becomes a name such as RAYBAN-2026-07-17-190049.MOV: manufacturer, year, month, day, hour, minute and second.
Does it only work with Ray-Ban Meta glasses?
No. CaptureSort can rename media from other cameras and devices when the files contain readable manufacturer and capture-time metadata.
Will it overwrite my original footage?
Not when copy mode is enabled. CaptureSort creates renamed copies and leaves the source files untouched. It also prevents duplicate destination names from overwriting an existing file.
Does CaptureSort upload my videos?
No. The files stay on your Mac. CaptureSort reads the metadata and performs the copy or rename operation locally.
