Spotify covers art update#

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there any indication as to why it's happening, or if it will be fixed?Īffected devices: (all using most recent Spotify update ) I'm hoping a fix can be found and the correct album art can return across all areas of the Spotify service. Ultimately this doesn't hinder my ability to use Spotify, but it's certainly annoying and does subtract from the experience. It doesn't appear to be an issue with a specific device (since it's happening on all of my devices) nor with a specific artist (because it's happening to several that I've found) so I'm stumped as to what's going on here. The same is true in my car, where the album looks fine on my phone and in CarPlay but this strange incorrect artwork displays on the now playing screens in CarPlay, on my Car Thing, and on the display behind my steering wheel. I've attached a screenshot from the desktop app showing this, which in this case isn't affecting the art in playlist views or on artist pages but shows up in the now playing screen's album art display. It's as if someone making a bunch of vague playlist themes somehow modified Spotify's saved artwork for the song. I noticed today (on my desktop computer) that songs from several other albums (by other artists) have the same problem. They're all generic playlist-style artwork with phrases on stock image backgrounds, such as (specifically for this album) 'Lo-Fi Chill,' 'It's Coffee O'Clock,' 'Weekend At Home,' etcetera. While driving yesterday, I noticed nearly every song in an album (Lorde's Pure Heroine, the extended edition) has the incorrect album art.
