Apple today started sharing its "Replay 2022" playlist to Apple Music subscribers. Just like the past few years, this playlist ranks all of the music you've been streaming since the year began, with 100 total tracks in the ranking.
"Replay 2022" will update every week with the newest order of your most-listened-to tracks. By the time 2022 ends, the playlist provides an overall look at your music history for the year.
Once you've listened to enough music to generate the playlist, you'll find it at the bottom of the Listen Now tab in Apple Music on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. There's also a more detailed version of the data tracking feature on Apple Music for the web, including most streamed artists and albums, and statistics for detailed play counts and hours listened.
Apple has been making its yearly Replay playlists available since 2019, and it's the company's only offering in terms of a yearly statistic wrap-up. Spotify Wrapped has been dominating this area of the music streaming business for a few years now, mainly thanks to its easily shareable infographics that come out in early December.
Apple Music Replay has the bonus of being available year-round, but the playlist doesn't tend to change much once you get far enough into the year, and Apple still hasn't provided a year-end recap that its subscribers can post to social media platforms.
Head to the Apple Music app or Apple Music on the web to add the Replay 2022 playlist to your library. If you haven't listened to enough music yet in 2022, the playlist may not appear in your Apple Music app. Once you do listen to more music, you should see your Replay 2022 playlist appear as usual in the Listen Now tab.
And this is exactly why Apple Music sucks at everything. They can't even integrate this into the app? I would venture to bet less than 1% of their listeners use the webapp, let alone even know it exists.
Am I misreading your reply? Macrumors said “Head to the Apple Music app or Apple Music on the web ('https://beta.music.apple.com/replay')…”
That seems to say it’s integrated into the app, but your reply gives me the impression that it said “Head to Apple Music on the web…”
You can add it to the library from the website. I agree, tho, that you shouldn’t have to go to the web version to add it in the first place.
Ok, so a second person also saw that it’s only accessible from the web?
I feel like I’m taking crazy pills! It clearly says Apple Music app OR Apple Music on the web. Right?!?
OK… I had to go check & sure enough in the Listen Now tab, scrolling to the bottom, there are my Replay ‘22 and other year playlists. (My dog listens to a lot of “relax my cat” music. Don’t judge her!)

Complaints about heat issues with the iPhone 15 Pro models are not related to TSMC's 3-nanometer node that was used for the A17 Pro chip, according to well-respected Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. Kuo says that overheating could be caused by "compromises made in the thermal system design" that allowed Apple to cut down on the weight of the iPhone 15 Pro models.
