Hey there,
I ran into a problem, because I transferred thousands of photos from my phones onto my hard drive but never bothered actually sorting them manually so it was just a mess of folders upon folders.
I didnt want to use Google Photos or anything like that because I would have to upload all my photos to the web and pay a monthly subscription.
So I coded this using Claude and it worked really well for me:
Photo Sorter — Automatically Organize Your Photos into Folders | PhotoSort
It actually detects the location of photos, timestamps and everything and sorts them into folders, like this:
2026
- location, event
- location, event
- other (screenshots invoices/random stuff)
2025
- location, event
- location, event
No photos are uploaded to the web, everything is done locally on your computer so your photos never leave your computer.
I showed it to a friend of mine and he was super happy with it too and he suggested I should make a website for it, so here it is, maybe it helps you too!
