Spotify Cover Art Size & Format Guide
Quick answer
Spotify sizes at a glance
Spotify cover art must be square and between 640x640 and 10000x10000px. Use losslessly encoded TIFF, PNG, or JPG in sRGB at 24 bits per pixel. Do not upscale a small source image. A 3000x3000 export is a strong working target, but Spotify does not require that exact size.
Pick this preset, drop your file, and FastEdit starts from the Spotify Playlist Cover dimensions, format, and file-size target.

Open Spotify Playlist Cover preset →Before you upload
- Start from the highest genuine resolution available. Spotify explicitly says not to upscale a smaller image.
- Use a square 1:1 crop, sRGB color, and 24-bit color depth; remove unsupported embedded color profiles and orientation metadata.
- Playlist covers can be changed in the Spotify app by editing a playlist you created.
- Preview the artwork at thumbnail size before exporting so the subject and text remain legible in compact player views.
