Apple Music listeners, the moment you’ve been waiting for all year is finally here. The music streaming platform rolled out its annual Apple Music Replay feature on Tuesday, Dec. 2, 2025. Ready to see your 2025 insights or having trouble accessing them? Keep reading to learn how.
Just like Spotify Wrapped, Apple Music Replay compiles users’ top songs, albums, artists, playlists, genres and stations into year-end insights. The music streaming platform uses listening history, number of plays, and time spent listening to a song, artist, album, playlist, genre or station to create personalized results for each person.
Apple Music Replay also provides a year-end highlight reel, allowing you to celebrate your year in music “with an audio and visual recap of the music that you listened to the most,” according to the platform. Then comes the fun part: You can share your unique insights, from top artists to major milestones, on social media for friends and family to see, too.

The Apple Music Replay dashboard can be accessed from the Home tab in your Apple Music app. The feature is also available online at replay.music.apple.com. If you’re using the website, make sure to sign in with the same Apple Account linked to your Apple Music subscription.
Why Is My Apple Music Replay Not Showing Up?
If your Apple Music Replay for 2025 isn’t appearing, there could be a few reasons. First, make sure your app is up to date with the latest software. If you have an iPhone or iPad, ensure it’s running the newest version of iOS or iPadOS; Android users should update to the latest available OS version as well.
Additionally, “Use Listening History” should be enabled on all your devices. According to Apple, users should:
- “On your iPhone or iPad: Go to Settings > Apps > Music and turn on Use Listening History.
- On your Mac: In the Apple Music app, choose Music > Settings, click the General tab, then select Use Listening History.
- On your Android: At the top of the Apple Music app, tap the More button, tap Settings, then turn on Use Listening History.”

The 2025 rollout includes the “Discovery” section, which highlights new artists users listened to, as well as “Loyalty,” which spotlights artists they’ve consistently returned to each year. There’s also a “Comebacks” section that shows which artists reappeared in users’ listening rotation, according to TechCrunch.
Users can also view their monthly Replay highlights and revisit past summaries from every year they’ve been subscribed to the music streaming platform. There’s also a “Replay All Time” playlist that features all the tracks they’ve listened to the most since signing up for the service.
Meanwhile, artists will be able to view new metrics, including listenership growth and year-over-year performance summaries. As in previous installments, they’ll also have access to metrics like total listeners, countries, cities, and minutes streamed, per TechCrunch.

Unlike Spotify Wrapped, which pauses data collection during the period between yearly iterations (most likely from late November to early January), Apple Music never stops collecting your listening data.
Apple Music uses a year-long Replay system, allowing users to access weekly stats beginning in early February. The platform continues collecting data through the end of the year.
