Spotify playlist cover: How to use the new feature!
Your music, your style: create customized Spotify playlist covers
Spotify has introduced an exciting new feature that allows you to customize the cover of your playlists. Previously, you could only add your own image to playlists - now you can get creative with colors, text styles and visual effects. The new feature is now available as a beta version in the Spotify app and offers both Free and Premium users the opportunity to give their playlist a unique look.
Why a customized playlist cover is important
Whether you share your playlists with friends or use them for promotional purposes as a DJ or artist, a unique cover makes your playlist more visually appealing and ensures that it stands out in the crowd. Especially in times of Spotify Wrapped and the personalized annual reviews, users want to make their playlists as individual as possible. And this is exactly where the new feature comes in.
How to create your own Spotify playlist cover
The new cover editor is easy to use and works directly in the Spotify mobile app:
- Open your Spotify app (make sure it's up to date).
- Select an existing playlist or create a new one.
- Tap on the three-dot menu and select the option "Create cover art".
- Now you can customize your design by:
- Uploading your own images
- Using texts and font styles (e.g. Spotify Mix)
- Adding background colors and gradients
- Using visual effects and stickers from well-known artists
- Save your design - it will automatically be set as a new playlist cover
- Share your playlist with your new cover on social media or with friends.
With the new cover design feature, Spotify gives users even more creative freedom. Whether you're creating a party playlist, collecting your favorite songs or presenting your mixtape as an artist - a unique cover will make your playlist an eye-catcher. So give it a try and make your music experience even more individual!
