    Yeah, I joined Spotify last year about a month before there thing like this was released. I’m not impressed with this in comparison to the Spotify version.

    How do you play your top played songs?

    I am tapping on them, and it’s just zooming in on the webpage page.

    What sort of imbecile designed this? It’s called Replay, and you can’t Replay the music?

    They should rename it to Apple Music Can’t Replay.

    I’ve taken a screenshot, and then copied and pasted the text out of Photos and then pasted that into the search bar in music, so I can listen to my songs.

    Have I missed something here? Am I stupid or is it really that bad?

    lmao i opened the app once just to see what was there and they offered me a 2 months free trial (after i had a 3 month trial a few years ago).

    apparently the like 20 songs ive listened to don’t make me eligible for replay

      you can turn your homepods to be an “alternative” account and not yours so it doesn’t count against your personal plays

          In the home app, go into the HomePod settings and check out “Primary User” in that sub menu, there’s an option to choose “HomePod Account”.

          Though I just read this:

          This account will only be used on this HomePod and will be allowed to control accessories in this home. This HomePod account will be used when it does not recognise the voice making a music or podcasts request.

          Which means that when it recognizes who is using it, it will use that user, otherwise it will use the default, so it’s not exactly what I thought.

    Can someone explain why we need to go to this website to view it? I’ve never seen my replay on the front page of Apple Music app… I feel like it should be front and center once a year under listen now like how Spotify does it.

    lol, my replay 23 is the same as last year. I almost always put on my yearly replay because it has the best songs and this year it was just a repeat of last.

    I listen to new stuff, but when I’m driving I like to listen something familiar

    It’s really weird how this isn’t a native feature/playlist in Apple Music, but through their website instead. Like is it really that hard to just implement Apple Music Replay within the app?

    Another year of Apple Music Replay another year feeling like it isn’t correct.

    There must be some weirdly strict rules about what constitutes a ‘play’ and what doesn’t, or a problem syncing plays between devices on icloud - I don’t know.

    Every year I get my Replay back and there are visually obvious things to me that are wrong. An example would be an album I am certain I have listened to several times only showing 50 minutes total playtime this year. Weird.

    Maybe I’m the only one who has this problem but I have never had the feeling that this data was as accurate as spotify wrapped and I am disappointed every single year.

      An album play only counts when you listen to the song from the album itself, not when playing the song from a playlist etc.

      Yeah it’s definitely wrong. It says my most played song was 17 times and my most played album was 51 times. The song wasn’t on that album. So shouldn’t my most played song be any song from that album?

        51 plays is the sum of the songs on that album. The individual songs have less than 17. So it’s actually right.

      Mine is always wrong. There’s a song I’ve listened to like 3 times but it’s high on my list. I don’t know how they count this.

      Yeah… I don’t think I’ve listened to an album 223 plays… unless it’s specifically any song from the album? But even then the total song plays down the bottom don’t add up to 223

      another year feeling like it isn’t correct

      It’s totally, comically wrong. My “top” song is by Men Without Hats, with 36 plays, and I can’t stand that group.

        my “top” song has 105 plays but I don’t think I’ve ever consciously listened to it and my second highest has like 50 plays and I play that all the time.

      This happens to me too. What it thinks is my top album might have been last year but definitely is not this year. Unless it counts any single song played off the album towards “most listened to album” there’s zero chance I’ve listened to my “top” album 294 times this year. Frankly going by full album listens, Reputation (TS 🫣) should be my number one album of the year

    How is it that I have 23.5k hours of music listened and it also says my top played song was played 18 times…
