Vanilla Music player Tag Editor plugin
About this app
This app is a plugin. Prior to use it you should have https://f-droid.org/packages/ch.blinkenlights.android.vanilla installed. Once both player and this plugin are installed, request a context menu from library screen, select "Plugins" and "Tag Editor" afterwards.
This plugin can edit metadata tags of the various music files and persist them to the file being edited. Note that not all music files support storing tags in metadata as this depends on format.
Also note that artwork fetching and persisting is done in another plugin, https://f-droid.org/packages/com.kanedias.vanilla.coverfetch that is also available from store.
Features:
* Tag editing of multiple audiofile formats (mp3/ogg/flac) * Any supported tag: Title, Album, Year, Lyrics, etc. * Lightweight (640 KB in release apk)

How to install this safely
How to verify the file you downloaded
Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.
What the signing certificate proves
Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be com.kanedias.vanilla.audiotag is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.
How to roll back to an earlier version
If the current release misbehaves, 1.4.10 is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall Vanilla Tag Editor first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.
Why we list sources instead of hosting everything
The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of Vanilla Tag Editor, and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.

Permissions Required
What each permission lets Vanilla Tag Editor do. A highlighted one is worth a second look — not necessarily wrong, just worth asking whether this app needs it.
Previous Versions
The signing certificate fingerprint for this release is on record, so a build that does not match it did not come from this publisher.
