Upload your own notebook cover photo

Editors on Hub and native apps can set a custom cover — no AI quota; auto-cover jobs skip until you choose Regenerate.

Before you start

  • Editor or owner access to the notebook.

Steps

  1. 1

    Hub: open Mind → notebook → Settings (gear) → Cover section → Upload photo.

  2. 2

    Mac / Windows: open the notebook → cover menu (⋯ in workspace header) → Upload photo → pick an image file.

  3. 3

    iOS / Android: open the notebook → long-press the cover thumb or open the cover menu → Upload photo.

  4. 4

    Choose JPEG, PNG, WebP, or GIF (max 4 MB). FlyType center-crops to 4:3 and stores a PNG card — the library updates immediately.

  5. 5

    Uploaded covers use provider upload — background semantic AI will not replace them until you tap Regenerate cover.

  6. 6

    Use Reset to emoji to remove the photo and return to the gradient stub tile.

Common mistakes

  • Upload is unlimited on all plans; only AI Regenerate counts against monthly cover quota.
  • Prefer landscape photos — portrait images are center-cropped to the card aspect ratio.
  • EXIF metadata (GPS, camera) is not stripped yet — avoid uploading sensitive location-tagged photos until a future update.
