Ubuntu - Automagically import and rename iPhone photos/videos












1















I've been using Shotwell to import my iPhone photos, however, Shotwell itself can't:
1) Auto import upon mount
2) Rename imported photos and videos



After snooping around, I found Rapid Photo Downloader, which should work the way I want, however it cant read from a mounted iPhone.



Is there any way around this? I basically only want to auto import all photos and videos upon mount and rename files with their exif data, put the files in separate folders and subfolders.



Thanks!
