Audora 0.1.0: Put Your Local Music Library in Order
Audora is now available for Android.
This first release is built for people who keep real music files on their phone: ripped CDs, Bandcamp and Qobuz downloads, archive folders, and years of tracks that deserve better than missing covers, unknown artists, and silent lyric screens.
Audora is not another music player. It is a focused workspace for making a local library readable, complete, and portable across the players you already use.
What Audora Does
- Scans a local music folder and builds a clear view of albums, tracks, missing fields, lyrics, and cover-art quality.
- Edits core metadata directly on-device, with reviewable changes before writes are committed.
- Finds synced or plain lyrics from LRCLIB and saves them as sidecar
.lrcfiles next to your tracks. - Searches MusicBrainz and Cover Art Archive for album artwork, previews candidates, then writes selected art into your files.
- Handles album-level cleanup, bulk tag edits, duplicate album combining, missing-art filters, no-lyrics filters, incomplete-tag filters, and unfiled tracks.
- Uses Android folder access instead of cloud sync, accounts, or library uploads. Your files stay local.
Built For Careful Cleanup
Audora is designed around a simple rule: never pretend the library is cleaner than it is. The app shows what is present, what is missing, and what needs attention before you change anything.
That matters because music metadata is not cosmetic. It is what your launcher widget, lock screen, car head unit, desktop sync tool, and music player all read. When the tags, art, and lyrics are right at the file level, the library behaves correctly everywhere.
Install
This draft release includes two Android build artifacts:
app-release.apkfor direct installation and testing on Android devices.app-release.aabfor Android App Bundle distribution workflows.
For this first 0.1.0 release, make sure you have a backup of any library you care about before doing large write operations. Audora is built to be deliberate about file changes, but metadata editing always deserves the same caution as any other tool that writes to your music files.
Requirements
- Android 8.0 or newer.
- Access to a local folder containing supported audio files.
- Network access for lyric and cover-art lookup.
Thank You
Audora starts with one practical promise: your local music collection should be fixable from the device where you actually use it. This release is the first public step toward that.
