METADATA LOOKUP
The right tags. Field by field.
Metadator searches MusicBrainz and Deezer at the same time and lines up every result against what your file already has. You choose. Nothing is written until you save.
Only the title, artist and album leave your device, and only when you search.
SYNCED LYRICS / LRCLIB
Every line on time.
Find plain or synced lyrics on LRCLIB and save them into the file. Any player that reads lyrics will show them.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
How do I edit the tags of an MP3 or FLAC file on Android?
Open Metadator, pick the song from your library (or open the file with Metadator from any file manager), change the fields you want and save. Only those fields are written; everything else in the file stays as it was.
Can I add album art and synced lyrics?
Yes. Pick a cover from your device or from MusicBrainz and Deezer (up to 1200 px), and search LRCLIB for plain or time-synced lyrics. Both are saved inside the audio file, so any player can show them.
Can I edit a whole album at once?
Yes. Select several songs to set an album artist or a cover for all of them, number the tracks, or read tags from the file names.
What if I save something wrong?
Every save can be undone. Metadator backs up a file’s tags before writing them.
Is it free?
Yes. Metadator is free software under the GPL-3.0, with no ads and no in-app purchases.
Which languages is it in?
Arabic, Chinese (Simplified), Dutch, English, French, German, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish. Corrections and new languages are welcome on GitHub.
