Match Folder Artwork decides what artwork new audio starts with. It applies to future uploads only, and changing it never touches existing files.

What the setting does

• On is the default. New audio placed directly in an existing folder begins with that folder's artwork.

• Off gives each new audio file different artwork.

Note — With Match Folder Artwork on, a folder's custom artwork is copied onto newly added audio as a snapshot. Changing the folder artwork later does not update those files.

Change the setting

• On Web — open Settings, choose Display, then turn Match Folder Artwork on or off.

• On iPhone — tap your profile avatar on Home, choose Settings, then Display, and turn Match Folder Artwork on or off.

Where the rule applies

• The rule is for audio files added after you change it. Existing file artwork stays as it is.

• New audio added to the My Library root gets different artwork whether the setting is on or off.

• On Web folder uploads, with the setting on, each new folder gets its own artwork and the audio inside matches it. With it off, each new folder and audio file gets different artwork.

• On iPhone, the rule applies to individual audio files, including files uploaded in Traklist or sent from the iPhone Share Sheet.

• This setting assigns artwork to audio. It does not change a folder's existing artwork.

Useful tips

• Turn Match Folder Artwork on when a folder's artwork should be a consistent visual label for the new audio you place in it.

• Turn it off when each new audio file should have different artwork.

Troubleshooting

If new audio keeps receiving the wrong artwork, check whether Match Folder Artwork is on or off, then upload again. Remember the rule affects new audio only.
