- Apple Music is 10 and lets users look back
- Replay all the time Playlist allows you to view your top 100 numbers when you joined you to Apple Music
- It’s a nice throwback -godbid and there’s a way for Spotify users to get a taste
Time flies when you listen to good music, right? Well, Apple Music has officially turned ten today and since Apple entered the streaming music spel, has changed a lot. We have seen design changes and new features – remember that its annual replay feature arrived in 2019 – but marking ten years of streaming is a new playlist that allows you to look back.
Rolling Out for Apple Music subscribers Now is a ‘Replay All Time’ playlist, giving you your top 100 most game songs since you joined the service. It can be a very long way back if you have streamed since 2015 or a newer look, but either the route, it will probably be a journey through taste.
I found the playlist ‘Replay All Time’ right on my home ground tab in the music app on my iPhone and my Mac. The description of the playlists sounds, “In honor of Apple Music’s first decade, look back. Relive your favorite tracks at all times, all in a playlist.” And as with any playlist on Apple Music, you can play it in order or mix it, as well as save it to your library and download for offline listening.
My playlist all the time had a few surprises and I expected that when I joined the service back on first day, June 30, 2015. There were plenty of previous songs in the summer – remembers some Justin Timberlakes ‘Can’t Stop This Feeling’ or ‘I Live’ by Onrublic? – But also many of my favorite tracks, which I choose quite a bit.
So yes, for me it means a lot of Bruce Springsteen, and I noticed some appearances used as a wake-up alarm on my HomePod and HomePod Mini. However, it is a nice walk down the memory track and at an unexpected time of year. Usually, Apple Music Replay rolls out towards the end of the year and offers a look back at your year in music.
Spotify also rolls wrapped annually and adds much more social elements as well as categorization based on your music taste. And if you are a Spotify user who wants a similar look back on the decade, or since Spotify was launched in your region-was it July 2011 to the United States-You will have to look at a third party to get the experience … Although the service may end up copying a bit of Apple’s party here.
Stats.fm Is always a good choice to learn a little more about your listening habits and what you stream most on different cads and this would be an excellent route. If you sign up with your Spotify account and give permissions, you can choose a “lifetime” look at your top genres, numbers and artists -all this without having to subscribe to the “Plus” level.
It gives your top 50 numbers and you can easily choose one of them to play. You can choose to subscribe to Stats.fm To unlock more statistics and more than just your 50 top tracks from Spotify.
It will be interesting to see if Spotify rolls this out in a formal way, but it’s nice that you can use a third party to achieve this. Apple Music’s roll -out of a playlist for all the time is still a nice touch, and it comes in front of the music service that debuts the top 500 most streamed songs. This process begins on July 1, 2025 and announces a set of 100 numbers daily, days before dropping a full playlist for listeners to enjoy.
Apple also rolls out other playlists to celebrate the anniversary and some new Apple Music Radio offers. And there is a new, over 15,000-square-foot Apple Music Studio location that opens in Los Angeles, California, which includes listening rooms equipped for immersive spatial sound playback. It will have bigger stages and studios that artists can record and perform.
