Spotify Wrapped is arguably the most popular way to share your yearly music-listening habits, but it's not the only game in town. Apple and Amazon beat out Spotify this year by launching their own annual music recaps this week.

Apple Music Replay will display a full-screen slideshow with your most-listened-to artists, songs, and podcasts in 2024. It may also tell you how many minutes of audio you listened to on the app and reveal your longest "listening streak," among other facts.

If you use Apple Music, you can check out your 2024 Replay now by going to Apple's dedicated page, but it's also available in the app.

Amazon Music is also launching its own version of annual audio recaps, dubbed "Delivered," on Tuesday. It will show you all the Amazon Music songs, artists, and podcasts you loved the most. And Amazon says some Alexa-enabled devices may serve up a special surprise message from one of their favorite artists. Spotify has done this in the past too; if you binge-listen to a specific artist, they record a voice message for their biggest fans.

Delivered is now available on the Amazon Music apps. Going to your Library page and tapping the "2024 Delivered" banner will open your customized Amazon Music year-end summary. You can also check out your "Top Songs 2024" playlist or ask your Alexa device to play it.

If you're a Spotify user, expect your annual Spotify Wrapped to come out "soon." [UPDATE: It's here, with some AI tricks courtesy of Google.]

Reporter

I’m a reporter for PCMag covering tech news early in the morning. Prior to joining PCMag, I was a producer and reporter at Decrypt and launched its gaming vertical, GG. I have previously written for Input, Game Rant, Dot Esports, and other places, covering a range of gaming, tech, crypto, and entertainment news.

I’ve been a PC gamer since The Sims (yes, the original) in the CD-ROM days. I still think about my first-gen pink iPod mini, which, looking back, was not so mini. In 2020, I finally built my own custom Windows PC for gaming with a 3090 graphics card, but I also regularly use Mac and iOS devices. As a reporter, I’m passionate about documenting the wide world of tech and how it affects our daily lives.

My Areas of Expertise

  • Microsoft
  • Google
  • Artificial intelligence 
  • Cybersecurity
  • Video games are a big one. I specialize in shooters (Apex Legends, Fortnite, Overwatch) but I occasionally test out other genres as well, especially indie games or cozy games (The Sims series, Animal Crossing). 
  • The business and tech that powers video games
  • Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology
  • Social media platforms, including Meta’s apps, X/Twitter, Telegram, TikTok, etc.
  • Tech regulation

The Technology I Use

  • MSI gaming laptops
  • Nvidia graphics cards
  • AMD CPUs
  • MacBook Pro and Air laptops
  • An iPhone from 2019 (though I’m thinking about getting a “dumb phone” like the Light Phone)
  • Nintendo Switch
  • PlayStation 5
  • Freewrite Traveler 
  • At home: Sonos speakers (we have them all over the house), Philips Hue + Ring security products
