Hi,
I am a long time fan of mp3tag and long time user. Love every bit of it. Can I suggest that we add the ability to auto save in the options, please.
This way when it becomes easier to move back and forth between editing the tags when we have to edit many many song.
Cheers
Thank you.
Wishing all a lovely day.

Would be nice, but only if it is optional _as you already stated_
But it's easy just to press Ctrl + S which I do often. (Keyboard Shortcut for Save Tag)

Please see **File → Options → Tags → Save tags when using arrow-keys/single mouse click**
> This option enables automatic saving of entered data when the file loses the focus (i.e., when moving to a different file in the File List.
>
> Moving to a different file can either be done with the mouse by selecting another file (or the empty area of the File List), or with the keyboard by moving the arrow keys while the File List has the focus or Ctrl+N (e.g., to keep focus in the Tag Panel).
