About this app

Book Cover Maker is a cover design app for writers. Make a cover for your Wattpad story, your eBook or your printed book, then the posts and banners to announce it. Start from a genre template or a short brief, change it with a few taps, and export a file that is ready to upload or print. No design experience needed.

COVERS FOR EVERY GENRE
Templates are organised by genre, so your cover signals the right story before anyone reads a word:
• Romance and New Adult
• Fantasy and Paranormal
• Horror and Mystery
• Science Fiction
• Action and Adventure
• Teen Fiction and Fanfiction
• Billionaire
• Humor
• Non Fiction
Every template is included. There are no locked templates.

MADE FOR WATTPAD
• Start from the Wattpad cover size (512 x 800 pixels), so nothing is cropped when you upload
• Send a finished cover to the Wattpad app in one tap and attach it to your story
• Start from Wattpad itself: in the Wattpad app open Edit Story, tap Edit Story Cover, then Create cover with Desygner, and the cover opens here, ready to edit

A REAL DESIGN EDITOR
• Layers, text, shapes, images and multiple pages
• Fonts, photos, icons and stickers included
• Remove a photo background in one tap, for a character portrait or your author photo
• Change the canvas size for a paperback, a square audiobook tile or a banner
• Unlimited undo and redo

AI THAT HELPS YOU FINISH
• Start from a brief when you do not know where to begin
• Generate images, text and title ideas using AI credits
• Rewrite, shorten or translate the text in a design

MORE THAN THE COVER
The same app makes the promo kit around your book:
• Social media posts and stories for the release
• Web banners and YouTube thumbnails for your author channels
• Posters and stickers

BRING IN WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE
Import from your phone, from Google Drive, Dropbox and OneDrive, or from Google Photos. Any app on your phone with a file picker shows up as an import source too.
• Import a PDF and edit the text and images inside it
• Import Adobe Illustrator (AI), SVG and InDesign (IDML) artwork
• Bring in designs from Canva or Figma and keep editing

YOUR SERIES, KEPT CONSISTENT
• Brand kit: save your fonts and colours once, then apply them to every cover in a series
• Asset library: keep your character art, logos and photos in one place
• Share a workspace so an author and a designer work on the same covers

ON EVERY DEVICE
Start a cover on your phone and finish it on your tablet or computer. Projects sync automatically.

EXPORT AND SHARE
• PNG or JPG for Wattpad, eBook stores and social media
• PDF, with a print-ready option and a proof you can download for your printer
• High resolution for large prints
• Share a link so other people can view the cover

WHY WRITERS CHOOSE BOOK COVER MAKER
• A full design editor, not a filter over a stock photo
• Templates built genre by genre, at the sizes readers see them
• Send to Wattpad built in
• Every template is free
• One app for the cover, the eBook version, the post and the banner

PLANS
Book Cover Maker is free to download and use, and every template is included free. Starter, Business and Scale plans raise the allowances and add AI credits, storage and team seats. Prices are shown in the app before you buy. Subscriptions are billed through Google Play and can be cancelled at any time in your Play account settings.

Ok, genuinely WHAT happened to this app. I used it about a year ago and it was pretty decent for what it was. Tell me why I open it for the first time in so long, and I'm suddenly overwhelmed by the amount of ai tools and a whole arse light show going on while I try and upload ONE picture??? Like I don't think you lot realise your target audience DOES NOT WHAT TO USE AI. And even if they do, every single tool/ feature DOES NOT NEED AN AI ATTATCHEMENT TO IT.

Heard, and noted properly. The AI tools are optional and you can ignore every one of them: Templates for covers, Projects for your work. 6.2.7 also tidied the mobile toolbars so the actual editing tools are the ones within reach. The point about the light show while uploading one picture is fair.

I used to love this app and I deleted it bc I was running out of storage, I re downloaded it today to find out there had been updates and they're not great, the app keeps freezing and just turning itself off. when I try to edit text it just keeps enabling and disabling my keyboard. it's practically useless. it's not my phone overheating or anything bc all my other apps work fine. id give this 0 stars if I could. you guys need to fix whatever went wrong here

Great app most of the time, and I like the extra challenge you add to it. You know, how it is a race to complete your book cover before the game crashes. That part is fun. I've been trying to get a high score, but I only get like 10 seconds until it crashes once I've started designing a cover, so I can't beat my score. What I'm trying to say is that when I import pictures from my gallery it can't load them - it shows them on the cover but never fully loads them. Then it is great - it crashes!
