Best Android music player for phone?
 
I want to start using my Samsung S7 in the car to play music, which will be connected by wire to the cars AUX port.

What do you guys use to play music like this as i won't be streaming, just connected via AUX?

I expect the built in samsung one will be fine, if not, this is rather good and free with no ads.

And I've tried quite a few, I ended up with this.

So i am trying the above 2 media players on my phone, i have put several mp3s in a holder and they play on the phone just fine, however i would like to see album art appear, is there an easy way to make this happen?

I use iTunes and add all that stuff then copy paste the file, then it all shows up ok

I don't use Itunes, are you saying i could use a desktop media player google the album art and manually drop it onto each file and then it will show up on an Android media player?

I was hoping for a simple solution where it went and got the album art itself.

Edit

I can get windows media player to find the art itself, i guess i have to somehow resave the mp3 to include the art, is that possible?

I have over 6,100 tracks (Mostly FLAC format) on a 256GB MicroSD card in my Note 8,

I use Samsungs default app, but I have Amazon Music & google music.

I stream via the Samsung app to my Bluetooth radio.

If I plug my phone directly into my cars USB port the Sync 3 systems loads the Google music app.

How did you get the album art onto the mp3 files on the phone, i think my phone is blocking changes to the files by other apps and need to allow it to do this somehow.

I had the files on my Laptop and use MP3tag to edit the track info and add cover art.

Then copied it to a folder on my phones MicroSD card.

I did this by putting the MicroSD card into a SD adaptor and into my Laptop.

Every track manually?

No, MP3tag does 99% of albums, but for some reason FLAC track info caused someissues and I did them manually.

I might have to check out mp3tag myself, I had been manually doing it, getting cover art, lyrics, album information etc. If this automates the process somewhat it may be better.

I am using an Android app currently which edits each track but will try mp3tag too sometime.

I used to use Winamp when I had an android phone.
