Notes:
-
If you try to publish your podcast in Apple Podcasts and you see the following error: “Art - Artwork must be 3000 x 3000 pixels, JPG or PNG”, then you will need to open Pray Studio and make sure your playlist thumbnail as well as all of your episode thumbnails are 3000 x 3000 pixels. After you update this in Pray Studio, you can request an RSS feed refresh in Apple Podcasts and then publish it once Apple approves the updates. It may take ~24 hours for Apple Podcasts to sync your updates.
