Chronophoto
Thousands of photos scattered between your phone, your camera and your computer? Chronophoto reads the real date of each one and sorts them for you into clear folders. Easy, even if you are not comfortable with computers.
Finding the photo of that 2019 birthday without digging for an hour. That is the whole point.
Computer, phone, USB sticks, memory cards: all your photos are sorted at once, each one at its own date.
No account, no cloud, no ads. Everything happens on your computer, even without the Internet.
Chronophoto works on copies and shows you the result before it starts. One button undoes everything.
4 numbered steps, large buttons and text you can enlarge. No need to be a computer expert.
Chronophoto automatically creates folders and subfolders: by year, by month or by day, and even by place. No more sorting by hand.
3,247 photos and videos all mixed up, in 17 different folders.
Just follow the numbers. Nothing is changed until you have seen the result.
One click on “All my folders”, or pick a USB stick, a drive or a memory card.
Choose (or create) the folder for your sorted photos.
By year, month or day, with the place name if you like.
You see the result before confirming. A mistake? One button undoes everything.
Made for people with thousands of scattered photos who just want to find their way around them.
Choose the layout that suits you. With “By year, month and day”, each month holds one folder per day: ideal for parties, outings and trips.
Chronophoto reads the shooting date stored inside the photo, not just the file date.
Find duplicate photos, even with a different name or size, or sent through WhatsApp.
Plug in your memory card, USB stick or camera: Chronophoto offers to sort its photos in one click. The photos also stay on the card.
Made a mistake? One button puts everything back, even the next day.
Rename a folder (“07 - July - Holiday”) or drag a photo to another folder.
Choose the look and enlarge the text for comfortable reading.
Separate screenshots, WhatsApp images, phone photos and camera photos.
The app follows your computer's language.
Chronophoto tells you when a new version is out. Every update is free, and your licence is kept.
Try it free on your first 100 photos, with every feature and no time limit. If you like it, buy your licence to sort everything.
Chronophoto is made in France by an independent computer repair technician. No ads, no account to create: just software that does one thing well.
Which processor do you have? In the Linux Terminal, type uname -m: x86_64 = Intel or AMD, aarch64 = ARM. Everything is explained in the guides below.
The first time, Windows may show “Windows protected your PC”: this is usual for small publishers. Click “More info”, then “Run anyway”. Learn more
No. By default Chronophoto copies your photos into the new folder: the originals do not move. And if you don't like the result, the “Undo this sort” button removes everything.
Never. Everything happens on your computer, even finding city names. Chronophoto only checks whether a new version exists (and you can turn that off).
This is a common message for software from small publishers. Click “More info”, then “Run anyway”. Chronophoto contains no ads and no hidden software.
In Chronophoto, click the “Trial” button at the top right, then “Buy my licence”: the order opens on this site with your computer's code already filled in. You receive your licence key by e-mail within a minute of your card payment.usually within 2 working days of receiving your payment. If you did not tick the box “receive my key as soon as my payment is received”, it is sent at the end of the 14-day withdrawal period. Paste it into the “Activate Chronophoto” window and you are done. Keep that e-mail: the key will be asked for again if you reinstall Windows or Chronophoto.
No: e-mail me the new computer code and I will move your licence for free, once a year. A lost key (same computer, same code) is sent again for free, at any time. See the terms of sale (in French), article 7.
Yes: Chronophoto is free for your first 100 photos, with every feature and no time limit. Photos sorted, copied, backed up or deleted are counted; the preview, the duplicate search and your memories are not. Then buy your licence to sort everything: photos already sorted are not done again.
You have a 14-day right of withdrawal, unless you asked to receive your key straight away (see the terms of sale, in French). If you have any problem, e-mail me and we will find a solution.
These apps display your photos, but they do not sort your files into folders. Google Photos also asks you to upload your photos, with a subscription beyond the free storage. Chronophoto really sorts the files on your computer: you find the same folders everywhere (USB stick, backup, another computer), with no subscription and nothing uploaded.
Your first 100 photos are free, with every feature. You see the result before you decide.
