I'm looking for an app that lets me import multiple mp3 files at the same time and join them into one.
I don't like apps that have timelines like iMovie for this purpose. I want something simple and fast.

On Windows, I used this which was great:
 
It’s probably not what you want, but you have it already and it’s free :)
QuickTime Player – Open the first MP3 – File – Duplicate – Edit – Add Clip to End … and Save.
 
How about AudioBookBinder?

You didn't tell us which Mac you have and what version of the OS you're using.

I'm using a 2018 Mini running Mojave (10.14.x).

There's an app out there called "MP3 Trimmer":
It works with mp3's in NATIVE mp3 format (no decompressing and re-compressing). That means -- no loss in quality as a result of the editing.

It also has an mp3 "Joiner" which might work for you.

HOWEVER:
It's older software that has not been updated.
It doesn't work with Catalina and later. Only Mojave and earlier.

There's also another product that DOES work with OS 10.14 and later:
I have no experience with this, other than knowing that it exists...

I've been using this app but lately, it gives me an error that it can't join files.

Does anyone have other suggestions for a free app that joins MP3 files?
