What it does
Kid3 edits tags across many audio formats and supports metadata imports, exports and scripted tasks.
Select local audio files to change shared album fields together, then handle track-specific tags. Kid3 can generate filenames from tags, import album metadata and export collection lists. It also edits synchronised lyrics and imports or exports LRC timing files.
QML/JavaScript, D-Bus and command-line controls support repeatable jobs. Native Linux, Windows, Mac and Android builds are listed; check the package and dependencies for the chosen system.
