With the 2025 Apple Design Award finalist Denim, you can create custom Apple Music playlist covers using your own images or hundreds of ready-made designs.

What we love: The slick editing and customization tools. Adjust background colors, text styles, and whether the playlist title appears in the foreground or background with the Depth Effect feature.

Quick tip: Make your favorite artist the cover star of a playlist by going to the My Covers tab, tapping the plus sign, and browsing the Featured Artists styles.

Meet the creator: “Denim’s origin goes back to the iTunes days,” developer Ashwin Srihari says. “I was obsessed with updating the cover art for every album so my Cover Flow would look flawless.”
