I can confirm Gramophone doesn't crop covers because Android does do it on unmodified Google Android versions. That makes sense because the provided cover can be displayed on a diverse set of surfaces (media notification, output switcher, paired WearOS watches and more). If I'd crop to square, we'd loose a lot of the cover art on most of these including the media notification (which displays the cover as wide rectangle and not square on unmodified Android versions).

It appears this is a OneUI problem, and not really a Gramophone bug? Please make sure there's no setting or something in OneUI to change this behaviour. If there isn't, I can consider adding a toggle to force 1:1 cropping on Gramophone's side because it's impossible to try to get an OEM to fix this, but working around device-specific bugs is not exactly my priority so this will take a while.
