Lost That MP3 Album Art?

Too many times we start to transfer our music from one SD card to another or from one computer to another and something goes wrong. We start our new playlist on our new EVO and find – that horrible Sense powered “Music Note” instead of our wonderful album covers.

Although there are many amazing album art searching programs in the market, Android Id3 stole the show for us. After testing out 3 different options, including: iTag, DroidId3 and Android Id3. Android Id3 was the simplest interface and the best functionality.

Android Id3 is made finding the album art simplistic and intuitive. Select how you want to search, select the song that is missing the art or with the tags you want to change and save it. It’s as simple as 1,2, 3.

Although Android Id3 violates our free app likings with ad support, something as heavy as running the EVO without plugging it in for an app like this is probably something we wouldn’t recommend anyway. When you are running an ID app, remember you are running the screen, the data radio and taxing the processor pretty hard with the search. For this reason, we won’t knock the free support version, but we won’t recommend using it for more than a few songs unless you have a power source.

You can easily select the art from downloadable internet sources and save them to the songs Id3 information. Then after a few restarts your albums will begin to show up in Sense’s album player.

Not only can you edit your cover-art, you can also edit album names, song titles, artist name and more with the utmost simplicity. It’s the easiest, most comprehensive free package available for editing all your MP3 file information on your device.
