Tagr App Reviews

Been using Tagr every day for about a year now and my Itunes has never looked better… Put some respeck on their name.

This app saved my sanity, and my music collection. I really appreciate the frequent updates as well. Super easy to use, constantly improving, clean simple interface, this sets the standard for what an app should be!

I generally dislike buying osftware that doesnt have a demo/free option, because of this exact instance. buy it, install it, open it, try to open a large library of mp3’s. It locks up, uninstall, buy another….. sigh

This application helps you to order and rename your mp3s and add album or songs covers. It allows you to modify rubrics such as artist, album artist, composer, album, disc, genre, year, comment, title number, etc. The perfect tool!! Definitely 5 stars for Tagr!

Over the last 15 years I’ve ripped over 1000 of my own CD’s using various applications on different operating systems. Needless to say there are problems and inconsistencies with my tags. I am now using Tagr 4.11.0 to fix my entire library. The interface is simple, intuitive, and effective. I don’t really care about album art, streaming, or iTunes, even though it does well with these. Working with simple lists in the interface I am able to straighten out my tags quickly and easily. I did have a problem that took me days to resolve. Some album names didn’t display in my mp3 player properly. I would name the file “Beatles”, change the tags to “Beatles”, but the player that came with my phone would display “The Beatles” and index it under “T”. I thought there might be duplicate tags in the files. After many unsuccessful attempts to fix it, including trying other tag editors and mp3 players, I finally determined what was wrong. I found an app that stripped away all tags. The album showed up in my player as “Unknown”, proving the tags were gone. I added back the tags, and the player showed the album as “The Beatles” even though it wasn’t tagged that way. So it turned out that the players (I tried several) all took it upon themselves to rename the artists even though they were not set to download or correct anything. During this process I sent an email to the author of Tagr and he responded by the next day with some good insight and suggestions. Kudos to him. For anyone who might read this that is having problems with your tags, if you correct your tags and they still aren’t right, it’s probably your player.

I was just looking for an app that would allow me to add year tags in track names when renaming since my usual app cant do it, and I noticed that the whole feature "file naming" does not work under my fresh 10.9.4 install.

A required app for who enjoy music and desires to have an organized library. With intuitive actions, direct commands and useful panels, it’s easy to add and change the tags for your music files. Additionaly, Tagr is a lightweight and fast app for OS X. My thanks to developer!

The best app you can find to tag your music. Has everything it needs, does it simple, looks great. Great contact with the developer! Die beste Tagging-App die Sie im Store finden können, jeden Cent wert!

Very useful and reliable application. It operates as described in the specification. I would like to add in the app window the indicator icon that would indicate the progress of converting files. There is also a small problem with the choice of all the files in the application window. Nevertheless, a great program.

I’ve tagged thousands of song using Tag, an application that hasn’t been updated in years. I discovered Tagr and it stands heads and shoulders above any other tagging app I have used. I can’t speek to support since the program is so solidy built I haven’t needed any. I highly recommend Tagr to anyone who is anal about tagged music.

As a lover of "Tag & Rename" prior to my MAC days (and still retain that single app within Parallels — the only use for Windows on my MAC), TagR is the best and most functional I have found for OSX. Not laden with features, and missing some basic core functions like Search & Replace, however, for effective MP3/Mp4 tag renaming of large libraries (I have over 200,000 songs), TagR comes the closest over other OSX options. Simple functions, drag & drop.

This is by far the best mac tagging app outside of iTunes. So glad its finally on the app store. I love keeping my music organized and this program does just that.

I’ve tried quite a number of other MP3 taggers over the years, but I always end up coming back to Tagr. It’s simple and easy to use, and gets the job done quickly.

Simple and intuitive interface, the best Ive found on Mac. Developer is friendly and responsive, a real rarity. Highly recommended.

This app rules - it does everything I needed to do, and is extremely fast at that. It’s worth every penny. It looks like an app that OS X would(and should) come with. I buy music from a lot of sources like Amazon, Humble Bundle, iTunes, and others and the files are NEVER in the same format. This app squashes that bug and does it lightning fast. Also, the developer got back to me VERY quickly and was supremely nice. I would totally buy another app from him again. Posting this for anyone who runs into the same thing as help: I only had one issue with it, which happened when saving to disk, which I discussed with the developer. As of right now, OS X has an issue(look up App Sandboxing restrictions) with allowing these applications to run on files close to the /Users/user folder, and the folder I was running out of(right below my user folder) was saying I did not have appropriate permissions on the files, even though I was allowing the files to have full read/write access. This isn’t the fault of the developer, it’s an OS X issue. The way to get around this is to move the files(or folders, I just moved my entire music folder) to the Desktop and run everything in Tagr from there and then put them back when done. Not a big deal at all, especially considering how much time this app saves you and how nice and clean it is.

I assume the 5 “5 star” ratings are fake, because this simply does not work. In fact, its not intuitive at all. I don’t get it. You load your album into the app and, what, search discogs? It pulls up a thousand random albums that are not the one you are tagging… but even if you find it, then what? If you ever tagged an album with Windows software and are looking for a replacement, this is not it. This is not Apple-like at all. I assume the whole idea is to manually update your album and not really have the ability to look it up and tag it automatically. Maybe that works, but who wants that? DO NOT waste your money.

this app is great! i originally used musorg but its inability to automatically renumber tracks was highly frustrating as many of the live shows i listen to need to have their mp3 tags cleaned up before import to my library. the only reason i am not giving it 5 stars is it lacks the abillity to rename the parent directory mp3s are sitting in. i spoke w/ the developer (who is great by the way, very responsive) and he said this would be a great feature to have but app store restrictions means a bunch of hoops to jump through so it may be a while before this can be done (completely understandable). i did report a couple other bugs and he was very quick to fix them. if you need a good tool to help organize your music collection, i can’t recommend tagr enough!

This application works great. I didn’t want to spend the money at first, but I finally decided to purchase it. I couldn’t be happier. I organize my music in genre folders. Then, when it’s imported to iTunes, I always sort the music by genre. It was easy to drag and drop one of my genre folders into Tagr and change the genre for all of the music in that folder. Additionally, this software has a massive file name changer. I’ll need to experiment with that feature a little more, but it looks very promising. It uses the ID3 tag fields to fill in the file name. This is very helpful if you get your music from different sources but would still like to maintain a standardized file name structure.

I am very picky on how I format my music. I like my pictures and titles to match exactly. I love everything about this app. You can edit titles and artists and put the image of the song VERY EASILY. A few clicks. It is great! Also, the developer responds to you if you have any issues. Great job. Now as far as the app, the only problem for me is that some songs I like to put in capitalized letters and the artist’s name in title case letters. So basically like this “John Doe” is the artist and the song “TAGR”. It will not allow me to do this anymore. But that is just my convenience. Although, that does not stop me from recommending this app to anyone. Best 10 dollars spent for me. Easily 5 stars.

I use Tagr to set the metadata — artist, cover art, episode title, etc. — for every episode of my podcast. Great utility that lets me create this metadata quickly and efficiently.
