How to fix tags and album art on your phone

“Unknown Artist”, track 01 of nothing, a grey square instead of a cover. Fixing it used to mean a computer. Now it takes a long press.

Editing a track

  1. In the MP95 library, open the track’s menu (the three dots).
  2. Choose Edit tags….
  3. Change the title, artist, album or track number, and pick a cover image if you like.
  4. Save. The changes are written into the file itself.

Which files

  • MP3: ID3v2.3, keeping every frame you did not edit.
  • FLAC: Vorbis comments and the picture block; the audio stream is untouched.
  • M4A: on iPhone, iPad and Mac.

MP95 does not offer the same tag-writing workflow for every format. References to items in the Music library are read-only in the tag editor; an imported item may instead have become a local M4A file. Check whether the actual track offers Edit tags rather than assuming every Music import is a reference.

Is it safe?

The tag writer is designed to update metadata while preserving audio, but an editing workflow is not a substitute for a backup. Keep original files, try one example first and inspect the result before editing a large collection. File permissions, storage and provider behaviour can affect whether an edit succeeds.

The MP95 library on iPhone listing files in many formats side by side: Ogg Vorbis, Opus, TTA, WavPack, FLAC, AAC, DSD, WMA, a 96 kHz WAV, a 24-bit AIFF and a 96 kHz Apple Lossless file
Album and artist information comes from metadata. This library view shows the resulting track listings, not the tag editor. View full-size image

For whole libraries

For hundreds of albums, a desktop tagger with a database is faster: MusicBrainz Picard (free, all platforms) or Mp3tag (Windows, Mac). MP95 is for the fixes you notice while listening.

Frequently asked questions

Does editing tags change the sound?

No. Only the metadata blocks are rewritten.
