Hello, I have little experience with MP3 Tag. Could you please tell me if the program has a function for sorting covers by their size?

Do you ask for columns showing the width and height or the size in Bytes?
The Value for the first column is:
`[%_cover_width% x %_cover_height%]`
The Value for the second column is:
`%_cover_size%`
I just realized that you are a new user, therefore, here is the link to the detailed documentation about the customization of columns in the File List of Mp3tag:
> **[File List – Mp3tag Documentation](https://docs.mp3tag.de/customization/file-list/)**
>
> Customization options for the File List, including adding, removing, hiding, and rearranging of columns. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.
You can sort by any column using the menu View -\> "Sort by" entries or by clicking on the respective column header (toggles: ascending/descending sort order).
