Free Album Cover Maker
An album cover maker is a design tool that combines your artwork, album title, and artist name into square cover art sized for streaming services and stores. This free one runs in your browser and exports a 3000 x 3000 PNG with no account, upload, or watermark.

Cover art for every release
Singles and EPs
Make a clean cover for every release on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, or SoundCloud without opening design software.
Mixtapes and podcasts
The same square artwork works for mixtape uploads, DJ sets, and podcast cover art that needs bold, readable text.
Release announcements
Reuse the exported cover in pre-save posts, stories, and press kits so every channel shows the same artwork.
Frequently asked questions
What size should album cover art be?
Most streaming distributors ask for a square JPG or PNG of at least 3000 x 3000 pixels in RGB. This album cover maker always exports a 3000 x 3000 PNG, so it meets that common requirement.
Is my artwork uploaded anywhere?
No. Your image is decoded and drawn on a canvas inside your browser, and nothing is sent to Launch Blitz. The PNG is rebuilt from pixels, so camera metadata from the original file is not copied.
Can I add a parental advisory label?
Yes. Turn on the explicit content label, choose a style, and place it in any corner. It is a generic black-and-white label, so check your distributor's rules for explicit releases.
Can I use the cover on Spotify, Apple Music, and Bandcamp?
Yes, as long as you own or have licensed the artwork you upload. Avoid web addresses, social handles, and pricing on the cover, since many stores reject artwork that includes them.
