- Watch out, Spotify: Apple Music is coming for you.
- Apple Music recently introduced a monthly version of its Replay that sums up listeners' favorites.
- Spotify Wrapped, by comparison, is only available once a year.
Apple Music is turning up the heat in its competition with music streaming rival Spotify.
Apple Music Replay, which provides a summary of users' listening habits, is now available monthly — offering more frequent summaries compared to the yearly Spotify Wrapped.
Apple says you'll need to go to a website, replay.music.apple.com, and log in with your Apple ID to access your monthly stats. The summary tells you your top songs, artists, albums, playlists, genres, and stations based on your listening history, number of plays, and amount of time spent listening.
Spotify's highly popular Spotify Wrapped, on the other hand, is only available once a year.
In 2023, Spotify added several new elements to its recaps, including a "Sound Town" feature that matched users to a city in the world that has similar music taste, and a "Me in 2023" feature that matched users with one of 12 characters based on their listening habits. A "hypnotist," for example, listens to albums all the way through, while a "hunter" is more prone to skipping tracks.
But note that if you haven't listened to "enough music," you won't be able to see your Replay, Apple says. The company did not immediately respond to a request for clarification about how much a person would need to use Apple Music to be eligible to receive a Replay.
Apple Music Replay has previously been available at the conclusion of a calendar year, and is available in the app itself. Apple says the year-end recaps will continue.
