However, if there are four or more different albums, the playlist's image will be a grid of four different album covers shrunken down.

If you only have one, two, or three different albums in your playlist, one of those album's covers will be the cover art for your playlist. The number of different albums in your playlist determines which type of playlist picture you will see. Step 1: Add the Song or Album to Your Playlist If you just want a quick fix on your iPhone, use the steps below to change the cover art. Open up the playlist on the desktop app, click on the playlist cover, then select 'Choose Image' when hovering over the cover art box and follow the prompts. To make it a different picture entirely, like a mishmash of album art or a random photo that invokes a particular emotion, you can do so on Spotify for desktop.

If you're on Android, you could use an app like ' Change playlist image - Spotify' to do so, if you don't mind signing in through a third party. Unfortunately, this trick is only available to iPhone users right now, as the Android version of Spotify doesn't allow you to edit playlists beyond a simple name change.

While not an option ingrained in the mobile app itself, changing a playlist's cover image on your phone can still be done. Included in that is the album art for your playlists. Spotify is one of the most popular music streaming services available and allows you a high degree of control over the way you experience your music.
