Cover Photo Guidelines

Cover photos allow your viewers to understand what your content, brand, topic, or story is. 

Here are the following tips to captivate viewers with a clear and simple cover photo. 

1. The cover photo should be relevant to your content or topic. This will help the viewers to check if your content is within their interests or mood.

         

                                                                       

2. Displaying somebody else's identity, displaying inaccurate or false information or using others’ content without permission is prohibited.

4. Custom logos and titles in cover photos are allowed so long as it helps to describe the content. Too much text could overwhelm your cover photos.

                              Note: Text should be limited to 40% of the cover photo

6. The cover photo should not be pixelated or blurred

   

                                                                                           

7. CTA (Call To Action) text and images are allowed so long as it helps to promote your stream. However, promoting other applications such as App Store, Google Play Store, Huawei App Gallery, and others are not allowed.
