To ensure your cover looks sharp on both, design at 820×312 and keep important content centered (the sides will be cropped on mobile).

How to Resize Any Image to 820×312
Upload your source image in JPG, PNG, or WebP format and the tool resizes it to exactly 820×312 pixels. For landscape images, the width is set to 820px with the height at 312px. If the source aspect ratio differs from 2.63:1, consider cropping first. High-quality bicubic interpolation ensures minimal quality loss, and the total output is 0.26 megapixels — sharp enough for any screen or print application.
