Ability to Change the Folder Image

[chalandra]

Hello, I recently found out about 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 just spent a whole evening SO EXCITED because I just learned that it was possible to organize my playlists into folders (a function I had NO IDEA existed until I looked it up on a whim, but have been wishing it did for years-I use Spotify mainly through the app on mobile). I was then super excited to find fun aesthetic images for all my folders to match all of my organization only to realize that it is not possible. Meaning I am stuck with scrolling through music that is very organized, but grey and bland on the surface. This would be such a wonderful option to have on Spotify, and would only reward all the people who are invested enough in organizing their playlists to be able to make them look nice too.

Yes please!!! I really need this. It’s honestly super silly to make it possible to change the photo for a playlist but not for a playlist folder??

Please, we need this feature to match the aesthetics of our profiles. I'm currently frustrated.🙏

I can create images for the playlists and thats cool, but why not let me use cover images on my folders that hold the playlists?

I like the „folders“ to organize my playlists. But I think it looks a bit boring, so My idea is to change the cover of the folders to create a personal look.

I am well aware of the thousands of submissions before me but this idea really deserves more attention. 

I discovered folders last week on PC and spent a good amount of time designing my own folder cover photos, once I completed the designs, my heart was shattered when I discovered that folders CANNOT be customized. 

I am not a developer but I am married to one, and we both discussed this idea over dinner. Since the code is already implemented for playlists (changing the cover photo of playlists), wouldn't it be easy to add the same concept to the cover images of folders? I am on my PC 10-12 hours a day because of work, it'd be nice to be able to modify the cover photos of my folders. Not only would it be aesthetically pleasing, but it would help users locate their folders quickly. 

I feel like this is a massive oversight of such a great software. I am basically begging the devs at this point lol 

I NEED my folders to look pretty too!!
