Need Help for Album Art

[monica_st]

I used to have an iPhone (which used iTunes). If you're not familiar, when you enter the album name, the art gets downloaded automatically and shows on the iPhone.

I recently got a Galaxy S9, and when I did the whole copy-paste music files from iTunes to the phone file folder, the mp3s are there, but the album arts are gone. I have heard of 3rd party apps that I can use, but it's a hassle and it'll be great if there was a simpler way to get album art for multiple songs without having to refresh all the time. Thanks so much, any help would be appreciated!

PS: No, I have not downloaded the album arts onto my photo galleries as required by those 3rd party apps (not keen on using them if there is another way).

Some apps like Poweramp (third part music player) will download album art. Poweramp also doesn't require the art be anywhere except embedded in the mp3 itself. I'm not sure what it does with downloaded art because I don't really use that feature. I'm sure other music players offer similar featues.

I don't use iTunes but the program I do use allows me to add album art to the files (if it isn't present already) when I import them. I'm guessing iTunes doesn't embed the art into the mp3?

What app are you using on the S9?
