Sort — a free desktop app that automatically organises your photos and videos into folders

Hey Product Hunt! 👋

I'm Simon, and I've been working on a small side project to solve a problem I've been putting off for years — the chaos that comes with having thousands of photos and videos scattered everywhere.

So I built Sort — a free, lightweight desktop app that takes a source folder of images and videos, lets you choose how to group them, and moves everything into a destination folder, neatly organised and backed up. It flags duplicates too. No installation, no cloud, no fuss.

It's still an early MVP and currently handles image and video files only — that was the itch I needed to scratch. I'm genuinely curious whether support for other file types would be useful, or if that's just feature creep.

A note on security prompts — code-signing certificates are taking forever to come through, so Windows and macOS will likely show an "unrecognised app" warning. It's safe:

• On Windows, click More Info → Run Anyway

• On macOS, right-click and select Open

I'd love to know:

• Are there other file types you'd want this to handle?

• What does your current photo/video organisation workflow look like (if you have one)?

• What would make you actually use something like this day-to-day?
