    It is an album art grabber. It only adds photos to the album and those songs under the album will have the same photo. I think you can only add one photo for album
  • Question
    Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Got the app, selected album from my music on my Android, found the artwork, selected it, set it, when I go to library it is still showing standard album image?

    Are you using Google Play app? Uninstall and install it once again if you are. It should then work.
