Before you begin
Since this feature is still in its beta phase, it isn’t available for all users yet. Spotify says that it is currently available for users in English in 65 markets. If you can’t find it in your app, make sure it is updated to the latest version. If you can’t find this feature on the app after updating it, you will need to wait until the rollout reaches your account.
Spotify’s cover art editor has a wide range of customisation tools. You can choose to upload a picture from your phone and spruce it up with colour gradients, stickers, text, and visual effects. You can choose to skip uploading a picture altogether and start from scratch. As of now, there is no way to save a cover art on your device. Once you change it, there is no way to restore it.
