Square cover art at the 3000x3000 the podcast directories ask for, composed to survive being shown as a small tile.
Podcast art shows as a small square in every app. Keep it simple and symmetrical, and add your show name afterwards with a text tool since AI models cannot render clean lettering.
Describe the art. 3000×3000, composed to survive a small tile.
Describe the cover and we generate it square at 3000x3000, the minimum size Apple Podcasts and Spotify actually require on upload; a smaller file can be rejected by the directory before a listener ever sees it. The brief favours simple, symmetrical shapes over detail.
In practice almost every listener sees this as a small tile in an app grid, not at full size, so a busy design that looks fine large can turn to noise once it is shrunk. Runs return one image by default, at 2K.
That's the minimum Apple Podcasts and Spotify require on upload. Anything smaller can be rejected at the directory, not just look worse.
No. Image models render lettering badly, so we leave it off. Add your show name afterwards with a text tool.
Yes. Podcast Cover Generator is a Pro tool.
