A new tool called “Create Cover Art” is being made available in beta on the Spotify mobile app for iOS and Android. Users will be able to apply effects like fisheye and radial blur, crop photos into different shapes, and add background colors and gradients of their choosing thanks to this tool.
Additionally, users can add titles in various fonts using the text tool. Users can further customize their playlist cover art by adding unique stickers from artists such as Shivani Parasnis, James Marshall, and Jun Ioneda.
How to utilize Spotify’s Create Cover Art Feature
Both free and premium users may utilize the new Create Cover Art function, which is being rolled out in 65 regions globally. To utilize this functionality, follow these steps:
- Open the playlist whose cover art you wish to modify first.
- Next, select “Create Cover Art” from the menu that appears after tapping the three-dot menu on the playlist page.
You may now create your own cover art using all of the customization tools available to you. The related playlist will be automatically updated after you’ve finished creating the cover art. If you’d like, you can post the embellished cover art on your social networking accounts.
The ability to add cover art to playlists was not initially introduced by Spotify. This feature has been available in Apple Music for a while. Apple Music is still restricted to uploading a photo from the gallery or selecting from a collection of available cover art, in contrast to Spotify, which now offers complete customization.
