If you’ve moved toApple Musicfrom Spotify, there may be a few Spotify features that you wish you still had access to. A popular Spotify feature isSpotify Wrapped, which provides information about your Spotify listening habits, as well as visual representation of the songs, albums, and artists you’ve listened to most throughout the year.
Apple clearly appreciates just how popular Spotify Wrapped is, which is why Apple Music has its own version: Apple Music Replay. If you want to check out your most-played music of the year, then here’s how to find your Apple Music Replay.
What is Apple Music Replay?
Apple Music Replay is a feature that’s similar to the popular Spotify Wrapped. In essence, it provides information about how you’ve used Apple Music during the calendar year, such as your total listening time, the songs you’ve played the most, and your most-played artists. For previous years, you’ll find information on the entire 12 months of listening, but you can also see stats about the current year’s listening to date.
As well as statistics, you’re able to also access Apple Music Replay playlists. These are collections of your top songs from the year based on your listening history, the number of plays, and the amount of time spent listening to songs and artists.
How to find your Apple Music Replay playlists
For some reason, Apple makes finding your Apple Music Replay playlists much more difficult than it needs to be. They’re hidden away at the very bottom of theListen Nowsection; the chances are that you’re unlikely to stumble upon them unless you’re deliberately looking for them. Even searching for them using Apple Music search doesn’t work.
The Apple Music Replay playlist for the current year updates on a weekly basis. It doesn’t change a huge amount from week to week, but new songs will start to appear if you’ve listened to them a lot in recent weeks.

What about Apple Music Classical?
Apple Music Classical is a standalone app dedicated solely to Classical Music. It’s based on the popular Primephonic classical music app which Applepurchased in 2021. If you’re an avid classical music listener, you may be wondering if there is an Apple Music Classical Replay?
The short answer is no. There’s nowhere within the Apple Music Classical app where you can find aReplaysection like the one found in the Apple Music app. However, there is a workaround.
If you play your Apple Music Replay playlist in the original Apple Music app, it will then appear in theRecently Playedsection of the Apple Music Classical app. However, when you open this playlist within Apple Music Classical, it will look significantly different; the playlist will now only contain music that is found in the Apple Music Classical catalogue.
Any music from other genres, such as pop or hip-hop will no longer appear in the playlist. In effect, you are left with a Replay playlist of all the top classical music you have listened to this year.
It’s unclear whether this is a deliberate feature or a quirk of the system, but it’s a useful way to get a playlist of the classical music that you listen to the most. If you haven’t tried out Apple Music classical yet, then you’re able to learn more about why Apple Music Classical has itsown separate app.
