Choose an MP3 and its current tags will appear here for editing.

For music libraries, podcasts and audiobooks — correct metadata, proper cover art, everywhere you play it.

MP3 Tag Editor — Edit ID3 Tags & Cover Art in Your Browser guide

Edit the ID3 tags inside your MP3 files — title, artist, album, album artist, composer, year, genre, track and disc numbers, BPM, comment, lyrics and cover art. Existing tags are read and pre-filled for you; saving downloads a clean ID3v2.3-tagged copy while your original stays untouched. Everything happens in your browser.

How to use this tool

  1. Choose or drop an MP3. The panel shows what is already inside the file — its current tags, duration and bitrate — and the same values are loaded into the editing form, with any existing cover art previewed.
  2. Edit any field: correct the title, set the album artist so compilations group properly, pick a genre (start typing for the standard list), add track and disc numbers as 3 or 3/12, and paste lyrics if you have them. Swap the cover art for a JPG or PNG, or remove it entirely.
  3. Click Save tags to download the retagged MP3. If a file should carry no metadata at all, Remove all tags downloads a clean copy with both ID3v2 and ID3v1 stripped.

A worked example

A folder of podcast episodes exported with filenames but no metadata: open each episode, set the album to the show name, the artist to the host, track numbers in order and the show artwork as the cover — the whole library then displays properly in every player and car stereo.

How it works

The editor parses the ID3v2 header (v2.3 and v2.4, including UTF-16 text and embedded pictures) plus the older ID3v1 block when present, and shows you exactly what it found. Saving writes a fresh ID3v2.3 tag using a widely-compatible writer library — the audio frames themselves are copied byte-for-byte, so the sound cannot change. Removing tags simply slices the tag blocks off the ends of the file.

Frequently asked questions

Does editing tags change the sound?

No. Tags live in a separate block at the start of the file; the audio frames are copied byte-for-byte and cannot be degraded by tag editing.

Why download a copy instead of editing in place?

Browsers cannot modify files on your disk — web pages can only read the file you hand them and give you a new one back. Your original stays untouched as a backup.

My player still shows the old cover after saving

Many players cache artwork aggressively. Rename the file, or remove and re-add it to the library, so the player re-reads the tags.

What do Album artist and a track like "3/12" do?

Album artist keeps compilations and featured-artist albums grouped as one album in players. The x/y form tells players both the position and the total, so albums sort and display completely.

Is my music uploaded?

No — reading, editing and writing all happen in your browser. Your files never leave your device.
