It seems like every time I look at Spotify, they add a new feature other than Spotify Hi-Fi: the ability to watch music videos directly from the Spotify playback screen. Before that, there was the AI playlist builder, which I tried several times until it matched my unusual desire for the most wicked music known to mankind.

Now, you can create your own AI-generated playlist cover art directly in the Spotify app using the “Create Cover Art” feature. It's in beta at the moment, but both Premium and Free users can try it out from the three-point menu in the playlist. I tried it out. So that you don't have to

I take pride in my playlist creation, from my 13-hour drum 'n' bass playlist to this 20-hour death metal monster. And as you may have noticed, I really need a cover that matches that blood-soaked horror better than the current grid of album covers.

Finding a new creator was easy. Just dive into the Three Dots menu and scroll down to find the “Custom Cover Art” option. From there, Spotify gives you a brief introduction when you first use it, then releases you to the creator itself.

It's remarkably simple. The shape and size of the images are already set, the names of the playlists are pre-added, and the colors seem to be chosen based on the colors of the album artwork that will appear in the playlist. I began by manipulating the text into some sort of stacked monstrosity.

In addition to changing the slant and shape of the text, one can also pan and move the text around on the page. There is only one font, and no matter how you try to make it look, it will always be Spotify's “Spotify Mix” typeface.

Once the text is in place, images can be added. Images stored on the device can be added, or new images can be taken for the playlist. In addition, the creator offers several image manipulation options, such as shapeframes and “fisheye” like lenses. Like the text editor, it is very basic, but it is the element that Creator has most at its disposal. I chose this zombie hand image I had saved on my device from a Halloween event a few years ago.

Finally, there are 40 different stickers that can be added to the playlist cover. The cat sticker in particular stares into the abyss and contemplates an endless digital existence, like some sort of bizarre tragic Gilgamesh horror.

For many Spotify users, however, this service will not be a problem. Creating playlist covers with favorite images, memories, and stickers is fun. They won't mind that there is only one font, a limited selection of images, or a lack of other creative and artistic tools. It's just a bit of fun and a music streaming gimmick that you don't have to pay for.

But I still can't help but feel that Spotify could have gone further; Spotify is going all in on AI, so I was expecting things like image generation and manipulation. More text options and more types of stickers would be nice. I spend a lot of time and effort on my playlist music.

For now, the creators are hoping that you agree with Spotify's house style and the kind of design that Charlie XcX popularized on Brat. If so, the creators will have a lot of fun, and every playlist will have custom art that matches your personality and perhaps the music in it. If not, on the other hand, you will just be disappointed.

Like Spotify Hi-Fi. Where is my hi-res streaming Spotify. The enhanced playlist art generator doesn't make up for it.
