Another year of Apple Music Replay another year feeling like it isn't correct.
There must be some weirdly strict rules about what constitutes a 'play' and what doesn't, or a problem syncing plays between devices on icloud - I don't know.
Every year I get my Replay back and there are visually obvious things to me that are wrong. An example would be an album I am certain I have listened to several times only showing 50 minutes total playtime this year. Weird.
Maybe I'm the only one who has this problem but I have never had the feeling that this data was as accurate as spotify wrapped and I am disappointed every single year.
Mine is always wrong. There’s a song I’ve listened to like 3 times but it’s high on my list. I don’t know how they count this.
Same. I listened to an album once this year and it's telling me that I listened 81 times.
Yeah.. I don’t think I’ve listened to an album 223 plays.. unless it’s specifically any song from the album? But even then the total song plays down the bottom don’t add up to 223
It's totally, comically wrong. My "top" song is by Men Without Hats, with 36 plays, and I can't stand that group.
my "top" song has 105 plays but I don't think I've ever consciously listened to it and my second highest has like 50 plays and I play that all the time.
An album play only counts when you listen to the song from the album itself, not when playing the song from a playlist etc.
That’s ridiculous tbh
This happens to me too. What it thinks is my top album might have been last year but definitely is not this year. Unless it counts any single song played off the album towards “most listened to album” there’s zero chance I’ve listened to my “top” album 294 times this year. Frankly going by full album listens, Reputation (TS 🫣) should be my number one album of the year
Yeah it’s definitely wrong. It says my most played song was 17 times and my most played album was 51 times. The song wasn’t on that album. So shouldn’t my most played song be any song from that album?
51 plays is the sum of the songs on that album. The individual songs have less than 17. So it’s actually right.
I was watching mine and it definitely felt off — as it did every year previously.
Yep, my second favorite album this year I listened to once…
I only know one of the top songs on my top 15 lol. It says I listen to a playlist I’ve never heard and I just checked to see if my Apple Music was logged in to somewhere, and it wasn’t.
You're not the only one.
My top song says I played it 68 times and I never did that. I listened to the album once.
