Readable at thumbnail size

Most listeners first see your cover as a small square in an app. Use one strong object, two or three colors and a short title. Avoid thin fonts and small subtitles. Test by viewing the image at about the size of a thumbnail. If the title is hard to read, rerun with larger type and higher contrast. Compare your cover with other shows in your category before you choose, so yours stays distinct in the list.

Specs and spelling

Podcast platforms require a square cover, often at least 1400 pixels per side, so check the current requirements of your host. Verify the title letter by letter, since AI may swap characters. Keep the design free of other brands' logos. If you want a human-made cover later, the generated version still works as a brief for a designer. Update the cover only when the show changes, since a stable cover helps regular listeners find new episodes.

Tips

Directories show covers at a tiny size, so keep text to a few words.
Use high contrast and a single focal object.
Check that the title is spelled correctly.
Make a square image.
