My Question or Issue

Hello, I am having an issue with the appearance of Album Cover Art in the bottom left of the desktop Spotify app. It's been an issue for several months, but I only now am using the Spotify Community resource to seek answers. I attached 3 images of different covers with the issue even at the largest size option, though it's an issue with every album art, I found it best visible in these 3 examples. Thank You.

Hi @breadstick,

Thank you for reaching out to the Community. 

What you mention is currently expected. Right now, the cover art is compressed to improve performance on lower end machines. 

However, we recommend having a look at this Idea suggesting the possibility to bring high resolution cover art. You can support the idea by adding your +VOTE , that'll make sure you stay up-to-date with any relevant updates about this. It’s also worth knowing that the higher the number of votes an idea gets, the more likely it is for the idea to be implemented. 

We always take new ideas and feedback into consideration to improve the app. Here you can read more on how ideas work.

Let us know if you have any questions.

Hey @breadstick 

This issue should now be fixed in version 1.1.76

The blurry (low quality) issue for the album art in the bottom left corner of the desktop app was fixed in version 1.1.75. There was a delay in this version going out over the holidays, but version 1.1.76 that includes this fix is now rolling out to users.
