Over the past few months, I’ve covered a few new apps that hit the Android Market, but most the time I stick to the FREE apps since there always seems to be a good alternative that can be picked up without having to make a credit card payment. Today, things change! Album Art Grabber from MyLittleBigApps hit the Android Market shelves earlier today with the intent of helping Android users find the album art for their music. When you open up the app, you immediately are shown all the various music albums you have on your phone. For most people, the first time they use the app, most the album art will show up blank unless you’re meticulous about getting the album art synced up when your rip all your music from your CD’s. Simply press the menu button on your phone and then select "Grab missing album art" and the app will start searching the web. I only have a few hundred songs on my G1, but the app was able to locate all the images that I was missing and sync them to the correct albums in less than a minute. As most people know, many times albums have different variations of the album covers. If Album Art Grabber does not pick the one you are looking for, simply tap the image you want to view the full image and them tap it again. From here you will be able to browse through a collection of alternative album covers.
As I mentioned before, I typically don’t push priced apps that often, but Album Art Grabber is a very essential application for Android users who want to make sure they have all the album art for their music collection. You can find the app by searching "Album art Grabber" in the Android Market or you can find it under the "Multimedia" category for £0.99. And don’t forget to check out MyLittleBigApps website.
