MP3 tag editor for fixing song details: change the title, artist, album, genre, year and track number, and add or replace album artwork. Music apps, phones and car stereos show these details, so a quick fix makes your library look right. It’s free, there’s no sign-up, and your file never leaves your device.
How to use the MP3 tag editor
- Tap Choose file and pick your MP3. The current details and artwork are shown.
- Change any of the details: title, artist, album, genre, year and track number.
- To add artwork, tap Choose image and pick a JPG or PNG. Tap Remove artwork to take it off.
- Press Save details, then download the updated file.
No loss of sound quality
Most tag editors that run online re-save the whole song, which can lower the quality a little each time. This MP3 tag editor only changes the details and artwork and copies the sound exactly as it was, so the audio is identical to your original. The same is true for M4A, FLAC, OGG and OPUS files.
What you can edit
- Title, artist and album. Fix misspelled names or files that show as Unknown.
- Genre and year. Help music apps sort and group your library.
- Track number. Put album tracks in the right order, for example 3 or 3/12.
- Album artwork. Add a cover to MP3, M4A and FLAC files. Large images are resized automatically so your file stays small.
How it works
MP3 files store song details in an ID3 tag at the start of the file. This tool uses FFmpeg, the free, open-source engine behind many professional audio apps, to write new details and artwork while copying the sound untouched. It all runs in your browser, on your own device.
Tips for organizing your music
- Use the same artist name every time. Music apps group songs by exact spelling, so “The Band” and “Band” show up as two different artists.
- Fill in the album and track number. This keeps album tracks together and in the right order on phones and car stereos.
- Use square artwork. Album covers are shown as squares, so a square image looks best. Any JPG or PNG works, and big images are resized for you.
- Fix the details before sharing. When you send a song or podcast episode, the title and artist are what people see first in their music app.
- Rename the file if you like. The downloaded file keeps its original name. Song details are stored inside the file, so changing the file name doesn’t affect them.
The MP3 tag editor shows the details already stored in your file when you open it, so you only need to change what’s wrong. Empty a box to remove that detail from the file.
The editor also works with M4A, FLAC, OGG and OPUS files, so your whole music library can be tidied up in one place.

MP3 tag editor FAQ
Will editing tags change the sound?
No. For MP3, M4A, FLAC, OGG and OPUS files the sound is copied exactly. Only the details and artwork change.
Which image formats can I use for artwork?
JPG and PNG. Square images look best. Big images are resized to 1000 pixels so your file doesn’t grow much.
Can I edit WAV files?
WAV files can’t reliably hold song details and artwork, so the tool saves them as MP3, M4A or FLAC with your details included.
Is the MP3 tag editor free?
Yes. No account, no watermark and no limit on use.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser on your own device. Nothing is uploaded or stored.
