Spotify users can now design custom playlist cover art. Both free and premium users can access the new functionality. Only one custom cover art can be saved per playlist at a time.
Previously, users could upload custom images for their playlists, but this new feature allows for more creative control. To utilize the feature, users can select a playlist they wish to edit, tap the three-dot menu on the playlist page, and choose the “Create cover art” option. In the cover art creation interface, users can upload photos from their camera roll or start with a blank canvas. The app provides various customization options, including different text styles, colors, effects, and background gradients. Users can also add stickers to enhance their designs. However, there is a limitation: users can only save one custom cover art per playlist at a time. Creating a new cover will automatically replace the existing one for that specific playlist. To keep multiple designs, users must save each version before making another. This update aims to enhance user experience and personal expression within the Spotify platform, allowing users to visually represent their musical preferences. As the feature rolls out, it may encourage users to engage more with their playlists.
