"Apple Music is getting ahead of Spotify Wrapped with the launch of its yearly recaps. This year's Apple Music Replay is available natively within the app and comes packed with even more listening stats, allowing you to review all the new artists you listened to, which ones you kept returning to, and who made a comeback in your playlist."
"It also highlights your most-listened-to songs, how many artists you listened to, your favorite genres, and how much time you spent listening to music on the app. There's a shareable highlight reel as well, which you can post to apps like Instagram and TikTok. Apple already offers monthly music recaps and the ability to review all your listening stats, but it's always fun to see how your taste has evolved throughout the year."
"The season for yearly music recaps is in full swing, with YouTube Music launching its 2025 listening stats last month, followed by a new year-in-review feature specifically for all the videos you watched on its platform. Amazon Music has also rolled out its "Delivered" recap, which attempts to differentiate itself from similar features by making a festival poster based on your listening habits. We're still waiting on Spotify Wrapped, which is expected to launch very soon."
Apple Music Replay delivers a native yearly recap inside the Apple Music app with expanded listening statistics. The recap identifies new artists listened to, artists you repeatedly returned to, and artists who reappeared in playlists. It highlights most-listened-to songs, total number of artists, favorite genres, and total listening time. A shareable highlight reel is available for posting to platforms like Instagram and TikTok. Other services have launched year-in-review features as well, including YouTube Music and Amazon Music. An artist-focused Replay shows listener growth, year-over-year performance, total listeners, and top-streamed songs, with access from the app homepage or replay.music.apple.com.
