Add album art to MP3

Phones can't do this natively: drop a song and a JPG or PNG, optionally type the title, artist, and album, and download the same file with the artwork embedded. The audio is stream-copied, so it's instant and lossless.

Album art lives inside the audio file itself, as a picture embedded in the metadata container — ID3 tags for MP3, MP4 atoms for M4A, and a picture block for FLAC. Music apps, car stereos, and phone lock screens all read the artwork from there, which is why a song without embedded art shows up as a gray placeholder no matter how nice the cover you posted elsewhere is. Neither iPhone nor Android ships a way to edit this, and desktop tag editors are a whole app install for a ten-second job.

This tool does the one job in the browser: drop the song, drop a JPG or PNG, optionally type the title, artist, and album, and download the same file with the art inside. The audio stream is copied untouched — no re-encode, no quality change, done in seconds. For Suno creators it's the natural last step before sharing: you already generated cover art for the track, and embedding it means the artwork travels with the file into every player, DM, and phone library it lands in.

How it works

  1. 1

    Drop the song (MP3, M4A, or FLAC) and the cover image (JPG or PNG).

  2. 2

    Optionally fill in the title, artist, and album tags.

  3. 3

    Click embed and download — same audio, now with artwork.

When to use it

  • Embed the cover you generated for a Suno track into the MP3 before sharing it, so it shows art in friends' players instead of a gray square.
  • Fix a downloaded album where half the songs show no artwork by embedding the correct cover into each file.
  • Add title and artist tags to raw exported files so car stereos and phone libraries sort and display them properly.

FAQ

Does embedding artwork re-encode my audio?

No. The audio stream is copied byte-for-byte; only the file's metadata container changes. Quality is identical and the process takes a second or two.

What image should I use?

A square JPG or PNG. Most players display 600×600 and up well; 1400×1400 or larger is the safe choice for streaming-style artwork.

Why does my song show no artwork even though the site I downloaded it from had a cover?

The cover you saw was part of the web page, not the file. Artwork only displays in players when it's embedded inside the audio file's metadata — which is exactly what this tool does.

Does the artwork survive when I send the file over chat apps?

Yes, as long as the app sends the file itself (as a document/attachment) rather than re-compressing it as media. The art is part of the file, so wherever the file goes, the artwork goes.

Can I replace artwork that's already embedded?

Yes — the new image is written as the front cover. Most players show the newly embedded art; if an app caches the old thumbnail, removing and re-adding the file to its library refreshes it.
