Spotify users will now be able to add cover images and custom descriptions to their playlists from their Android and iOS devices. Until now, the capacity was limited to the desktop application. The feature has started rolling out and can be used by both premium and free Spotify users. It is also suggested that Spotify is working on a ‘trim the silence’ feature that will allow users to skip pauses in podcasts, although it is unclear if this feature will be available to everyone.
Users will be able to choose an image from their photos and set it as the cover image for their custom playlists. Announcing the release of this feature for Android and iOS devices in a blog post, Spotify said it was a “highly requested feature.”
To customize the cover image and description of the Spotify playlist from the mobile app, open the playlist you created, click the three dots to open its menu, and click Edit playlist. Now, click on the default album art image (usually an album art collage of the first four songs in your playlist) or tap Change image. You will have the option to click on a photo and use it as a cover image, or choose a photo from your gallery. Click on Use photo when you’re ready and type a description for your playlist in the Add description box below the photo. Click on save And you are ready.
Reverse engineering expert Jane Manchun Wong too shared a screenshot of a new feature that could be coming to Spotify. According to the screenshot, a switch in Spotify’s settings will give users the option to turn on the ‘Trim Silence’ option. This will prevent podcast pauses, which could attract more users to use Spotify to stream podcasts. Although, some other podcast apps also offer a similar feature.
Earlier this week, Wong had also said that Spotify was working to add support for local music playback on Android. Users might soon have the option to enable the new ‘Show device files’ option in the app, which will display all the audio files that have been saved.
