When you are an Avid iPhone user, you need the convenience of doing things easily through the device. Why would you want to go to a desktop computer to just change your playlist cover?

• So, find the song that has the album art you wish to have as your playlist cover since that is the only way.
• Then, tap on the three dots or the ellipsis icon, and expand the menu. This will allow you to add this song to your playlist by tapping on add to playlist.
• Next, choose the playlist you wish to change the cover of and then add to it. Go to your library, find the playlist and put this song on the top.
• At last click on done option after changing the position and this will automatically stay as the playlist cover.
