Quick answer
Simplifies tagging your CDs and LPs with MusicBrainz Picard
F-Droid repository metadata
Picard Barcode Scanner allows you to load releases into MusicBrainz Picard by using your Android device as a barcode scanner. Just scan the barcode of an album and it will search MusicBrainz for matching releases and loads them into Picard on your desktop computer.
This is especially useful if you have your physical music collection already digitized and want to tag the files using exactly the album you own.
Please note: This is not a music file tagger for Android but rather a helper tool for MusicBrainz Picard on your desktop.
Requirements: • Picard 1.0 or later • Your Android device and the computer running Picard should be both on the same network, and the port 8000 should be accessible
This app is free software published under the GPLv3. The source code is available on GitHub.

How to install
- Download the APK from the button at the top of this page.
- Allow “Install unknown apps” for your browser or file manager only, not for every app.
- Open the downloaded file and confirm the installation.
- If installation fails with “App not installed,” remove an earlier build of the same app first. A signature conflict is the usual cause.
