How to Add Custom Artwork to Apple Music on iPhone

In past iOS versions, you could only use a basic tile of album artwork or upload your own image for playlist customization. Now, iOS 17.1 offers eight new artwork styles for playlists, adding variety with shapes and gradients. The playlist’s title is shown in the top left, and the artwork’s colors come from the first song’s album cover.

If you don’t choose a custom style, the default is a tile of the first four songs album artwork. But, you can always pick a personal image from your photos or the Files app.
