Apple Music Replay is a suer fun feature that lets you know what artists you have been obsessed with all year, which albums you’ve had on repeat, and how many hours of listening time you’ve done—along with a few other fun stats.
Key information:
- Access Apple Music Replay 2024: Tap 'Listen Now' in the Apple Music app, then scroll to find your Replay playlist.
- Personalized Music Recap: Apple Music Replay provides a custom playlist featuring your top songs, artists, and albums of the year.
- Year-Round Updates: Unlike other services, Apple Music Replay updates throughout the year, offering continuous insights into your listening habits.
- Cross-Platform Availability: Access your Replay on mobile, desktop, or web player.
- Alternative Services: Compare your Apple Music Replay with other platforms like Spotify Wrapped or YouTube Music Recap for a complete overview of your music year.
There are other music streaming services with a similar yearly wrap-up; Spotify Wrapped is one of the most popular (even more so when it looks like the design teams had a great time), and there is a YouTube Music Recap, too!
You can relive your year of music in a single playlist. Using your listening metrics, you get a personalized playlist built using the albums, songs, and artists you listened to the most over the last year.
Unlike some services, Apple Music Replay updates throughout the year, giving you insights as you go.
Apple Music considers the number of plays you have given to stations, genres, playlists, albums, and artists, so it is a pretty comprehensive list of what you really love.
You’ll find your top songs, top artists, and get listening history and insights.
How can you find your Apple Music Replay?
Apple recommends that you update all of your devices with the latest software first. If you’ve been putting off that update for a while, it’s time to get that done!
Head to replay.music.apple.com.
Or, if you see the notification on your Apple Music mobile, tap it, and you’ll be taken to the website and prompted to log in.
Those who haven’t listened to enough music on Apple Music will see a percentage of how much you have enjoyed, so you know how much you still need to do!
And for those who have clocked up enough listening time, you will see your listening stats for the play count and time spent listening.
Is Apple Year-End Replay experience as good as Spotify Wrapped?
It depends on what you enjoy more; while you have some basic stats, it is nowhere near as enjoyable as Spotify Wrapped for social media sharing and tapping through.
Apple's Replays don't have the aesthetically pleasing graphics and the simple shareability of Spotify Wrapped. That said, it's always cool to know what the last year of your listening habits looked like—even if you have a few more cringe options than you hoped!
If you can’t wait for your Apple Music Yearly Playlist or want to check other listening stats, you can do that anytime with the FreeYourMusic app to check your listening insights, including minutes of music you've listened, favorite songs or overview of artists—nice.
Where can I find my other Apple Music Replay years?
If your Apple year-end summary in orevious years left you a little disappointed or didn't reflect your usual listening, you can find the rest of your replays on the mobile app, desktop, and web player.
And with the FreeYourMusic app, you can take a further look at your Apple Music stats, music habits, review recaps of your favorite artists or review stats of hours of music listened, monthly listening time and more with the special Stats feature available all year round.
