Ability to Change the Playlist Folder Image

Hello, I recently found out about playlist folders again on Spotify! It's such a great feature to organize my 50+ playlists that have either been made myself, made by others, or made by Spotify. Another great feature is changing the playlist picture on desktop!

It gives me the creative freedom to spruce up my playlists in the best way; however, it is an eyesore on mobile.

I believe that Spotify should implement a feature to let users modify folder pictures on desktop (Hopefully they will implement changing either on mobile...) along with playlist pictures. Yes, this idea has been submitted many times, but I hope that this time it can have enough kudos! Thank you for reading!

I organize playlists into folders and I would like it to be possible to add a cover to the folder, since visually the eye clings to the image faster than reading the text of the titles.

Most likely, first of all, this functionality is needed for a PC (Browser Player, Windows application). Personally, I find it more convenient to add covers from a PC. I don't see myself doing this from Android.

We have an artificial intelligence dj but still can't change the blank default boring image for folders

Please let us play folders on mobile first though! Otherwise it's nice decoration for something I can't use 🥲

Please, it's currently 2023. With both macOS and  Windows Spotify apps covers of your playlists/folders in the preview on the left bar it's so lame to look and see just a bunch of plain 'folders' instead of the pictures I choose. This would be a massive QOL upgrade spotify..

I am happy to see that the consideration appears to be moving up in priority. It's such a simple change, yet an important one for making effective use of the platform.

I ended up here because I was researching if something like this was in the works. I would be VERY pleased to see this feature implemented soon! I pretty much only ever use the Spotify app on my phone, so being able to not only create, but CUSTOMIZE Playlist Folders would be extremely helpful.

Playlist folders on Spotify are so close to being amazing, just missing TWO key features.

 

1. allow Play/shuffle of playlist folders on mobile

2. allow editing of a cover photo for playlist folders.

 

im someone who makes playlists for each month then keeps them in a playlist folder. It would make it so much easier if I could shuffle the multiple playlists stored in that folder at once and more likely to use the feature if I can customise the aesthetic of the playlist folder.

 

really hopes this happens!!
