Square vs Portrait Format

The generator offers two formats: Square (1:1) for traditional playlist covers, Spotify, Apple Music, and Instagram posts. Portrait (9:16) for Instagram Stories, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Reels.

For shoegaze specifically, square format works best for album releases and playlist covers, while portrait is ideal for promoting tracks on social media with the animated cover feature.
