Apple Music tracks your listening habits all year, not just in December. If you want to see your top songs, artists, and total listening time for 2026, Apple Music Replay already has what you need. The playlist updates every week, and in iOS 26, Apple has made it easier by building Replay directly into the Music app.
You no longer need to visit a separate website in Safari. You can check your stats, view monthly highlights, and add your Replay playlist to your library without leaving the app. The 2026 Replay playlist is live now and continues to evolve as your listening changes through the year.
If you have used Replay in previous years, you will likely see the 2026 playlist already. If not, a few quick steps will unlock it.
