I am pulling a bunch of recordings off my android phone.  I found

preserve their date information.

Now I want to rename these files, which are all lectures to have the
date of creation/lastmodified in the file name.  All my searching has
only found how to put the current date into the file name, I can'f find
anything on using the actual file date.

Can anyone point me to how to do this?

You can get the date/time in any format you like using ls.

ls -lt --time-style=format string

where format string consists of the same rules used by the "date" command.
