When photos are moved from Android internal storage to an SD card, the file system timestamps (creation/modified dates) are frequently reset to the transfer time.
Many photos include timestamps only in their filenames (e.g., IMG20250715_123456.jpg)
This tool restores proper metadata (EXIF date fields) based on dates encoded in filenames, after the transfer, using a desktop utility.

Shipped this project!

This is a basic implementation of restoring Name2Exif.
I can add more features later but at least for now I can restore timestamps on 10gb of photos on my old phone (which i moved to SD card). Android sucks at times!
Hope this ship goes well
