Apple recently launched Apple Music Replay, its year-end music review, in response to Spotify Wrapped. You can explore the best songs, albums, artists and genres of 2023, but it doesn’t reach the personalized and shared experience that Spotify offers. To watch the Apple Music replay, go to replay.music.apple.com. You can find your most listened songs, albums and artists, as well as other information about your music habits. However, unlike Spotify’s Wrapped, Apple’s Review lacks features like Spotify’s “Audio Aura” and “Listening Personality,” which give the Year in Review experience a unique feel.

Spotify’s special features not only take into account your music preferences, but also create shareable content. For example, last year “Listening Faces” featured active cards that users could post on social media or share with friends. These characteristics capture the listener’s attention and arouse interest in their sense of self and how their musical tastes compare to others. Apple’s review, on the other hand, is based on standard metrics. Users can browse year-end lists to see if their favorite artists or genres are among the top 100 listeners. This chart focuses on popular songs from Apple Music and Shazam. Additionally, Apple Music Sing, a karaoke-like feature, is now part of our review. Apple Music users can also receive a personalized list of Top 100 songs each year that matches their playlists. Unlike Spotify Wrapped, which is currently a social moment, Apple Music listeners can enjoy year-round playback. To access Apple Music Replay, go to replay.music.apple.com with your Apple Music ID. Apple’s comments are shared on social channels, but lack the dynamic and artistic appeal that Spotify’s features offer. Spotify regularly introduces new and creative elements every year with Wrapped, keeping users excited for what’s to come.

In particular, Apple Music appears to be aiming to become number one in the music-related social sharing sector ahead of Spotify by 2023. Apple Music Replay offers valuable information, but Spotify Wrapped remains the place to watch holiday music in a more immersive and visual way.
