If you stream on Apple Music, December marks the most exciting time of the year. While the hype around Spotify\u2019s Wrapped might be dominating current conversations<\/a>, Apple\u2019s version \u2014 Apple Replay \u2014 tends to arrive with less fanfare, but just as much anticipation. And now, it’s officially here, delivering Apple Music listeners their stats for 2025.<\/p>\n

Everything you need to know about Apple Replay 2025, below.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Apple Replay dropped on December 3, 2025<\/h3>\n

As always, Apple didn’t confirm a release date prior, choosing to drop Apple Replay as a surprise. This year, that surprise officially came on December 3, 2025 in Australia (or December 2, if you’re reading this in other parts of the world).<\/p>\n

How does this release date compare to previous years? In 2024, Replay became available in the first days of December, landing on 3 December. The year before that, the annual summary surfaced a little earlier, appearing toward the end of November.<\/p>\n

How to find your Apple Replay \u2014 and how to share it<\/h3>\n

Replay is now live, and accessing yours is straightforward. Just open the Apple Music app on your iPhone, iPad or Mac and head to the Home or Listen Now tab. As you scroll, you should see a section labelled \u201cReplay: Your Top Music.” This is where your personalised roundup lives.<\/p>\n

Inside, you\u2019ll be able to explore your top 100 songs of the year, along with your most-played artists, albums, genres and your total listening time. Apple usually includes a highlight-style summary too, which you can save or share directly to socials.<\/p>\n

If Replay isn\u2019t showing up yet, a couple of things might be happening:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • You might not have streamed enough music for Apple to generate stats; or<\/li>\n
  • Your listening history isn\u2019t being tracked. You can fix that by turning on ‘Use Listening History’ in your device\u2019s Music settings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    What is Apple Music Replay (and how is it different from Spotify Wrapped)?<\/h3>\n

    Apple Music Replay is the platform\u2019s annual recap offering. It gives those who listen to music with Apple a chance to look back on their top songs, albums, artists, genres and total listening time across the year.<\/p>\n

    Unlike Spotify Wrapped, Replay works in the background all year. A playlist is updated regularly with your top 100 songs, and when the year ends, you get a full summary. Replay also ties all your listening back to actual data, giving you insight into not just your top songs but how much time you spent listening, what artists dominated your year, and how your tastes shifted across months.<\/p>\n
