WhatsApp Photo Date Fixer
Saved WhatsApp photos all showing up on the day you copied them? Pick the folder and the real dates go back inside the files.
Free. Runs entirely in your browser. Your photos are never uploaded.
1. Choose your WhatsApp photos
Choose the folder with your WhatsApp images and videos, for example WhatsApp Images copied
from your phone, or a chat export. Files named like IMG-20240105-WA0012.jpg,
WhatsApp Image 2024-01-05 at 14.32.10.jpeg or PHOTO-2024-01-05-14-32-10.jpg are fixed.
2. Fix the dates
Android names (IMG-20240105-WA0012) only hold the day, so those photos get midday,
kept in the order WhatsApp numbered them.
Saving needs Chrome or Edge on a computer.
