I see you were able to find a workaround to the ancient naming conventions from a decades ago that Apple still uses when saving to the file system. To help you (and others) understand how iOS works, below are three screenshots I just made for you (for this thread) - the 1st being for an iPad, the 2nd for an iPhone, & the 3rd for an Android device (connected by USB to Windows). 1. This is my screenshot showing how one of my iPads stores photos: <https://i.postimg.cc/RVdVKS8q/Apple-Ipad.jpg> This PC > Apple iPad > Internal Storage > DCIM > 202303_ > IMG_2753_AAE This PC > Apple iPad > Internal Storage > DCIM > 202303_ > IMG_2753_PNG This PC > Apple iPad > Internal Storage > DCIM > 202303_ > IMG_E2753.JPG 2.

This is my screenshot showing how one of my Androids stores photos: <https://i.postimg.cc/zfgrt8dC/Samsung.jpg> This PC > Galaxy A32 5G > SD1 > DCIM > Camera > 20240428_083005.jpg Note: Android camera apps usually have customizable settings which determine what the file name will be (these are Samsung defaults). Also note Android typically saves the images to the portable memory card which, unfortunately, no iOS device is capable of doing. Also note the Android file system for DCIM is read and write. The iOS file system for DCIM is read only (and extremely limited). Which of the DCIM file systems do you think is better engineered for users?
