Media Sorter

Open a folder of photos and videos, drag them into the order you want, and the order is saved automatically. It's XnView-compatible: the order is written to a .XnViewSort file, so XnView loads the folder in exactly that order too.

This app needs the File System Access API — please use Chrome, Edge, Brave or another Chromium browser.
