Instagram Reels Cover Generator for Music
Promote your single on Reels without losing your cover to the UI. CoverScale extends your square album art to 9:16, applies AI motion, and bakes in safe-zone-aware text so type and faces never sit under Reels overlays.
How it works
- 1
Drop your cover
Upload your square album art. CoverScale auto-detects key elements to protect through the reframe.
- 2
Animate + add type
Pick a motion preset and add the artist + track title. CoverScale anchors the type inside Instagram’s safe zone so nothing sits under the share / caption UI.
- 3
Export 1080×1920
Download an MP4 ready to upload as a Reel. Pair with audio in-app.
What you get
Square → 9:16 without crop
AI background extension grows your cover to vertical instead of zoom-cropping it.
Safe-zone-aware type
Track title and artist name stay inside the visible band, never under Reels overlays.
AI motion presets
Drift, parallax, zoom — tasteful loops that move without distracting from the audio.
Seamless loop
Loop point is rendered cleanly so the cover keeps playing under the audio without a hard cut.
Frequently asked
What size is an Instagram Reels cover?
Reels are 9:16 vertical video at 1080×1920 pixels. CoverScale exports exactly to that size with safe zones accounted for.
Will Instagram’s UI cover my type?
Not if you let CoverScale place it. The tool anchors title and artist text inside Instagram’s safe band so the share, caption and audio overlays never sit on top.
Does CoverScale add the audio?
No — Instagram requires you to add audio inside the app for Reels music attribution to work. CoverScale renders a silent looping video; you pair it with the track in Reels.
How much does it cost?
About four credits per AI-motion vertical asset. Credits are pay-as-you-go — typical releases cost €1–€2.
