Does Spotify Wrapped include listening data from January to December?

Despite rumors that Spotify Wrapped only collects data from January 1st to October 31st, platform recently confirmed that the survey does track listening data after Halloween.

After social media users joked that their time to manipulate listening data would end on October 31st, the audio streamer shared on X a Halloween image of a jack-o’-lantern filled with candy and a message that read: “Spotify Wrapped won’t be enough to count on October 31st.”

The platform hasn’t confirmed exactly when it will stop tracking Wrapped listener data this year, but we know it will be at least after October 31st.

What is the Spotify skin?

Spotify Wrapped idea came in 2015when the mega-popular music platform released a “Year in Music” feature allowing users to see which artists they listened to the most in the previous 365 days. The Year in Music campaign provided much of the same data as Spotify Wrapped, including listeners’ most popular songs and the total number of hours of music they listened to.

However, the feature underwent a major overhaul the following year, complete with a new name, Spotify Wrapped. The marketing campaign appears to have become increasingly viral every year as Spotify ups its game with graphic design and data personalization.

Spotify Wrapped typically releases in late November or early December.

In 2018, Spotify included data on the astrological signs of the artists users listened to the most during the year. In 2019, Spotify Wrapped adopted the Instagram Story format, allowing users to easily share (or show off) their curated listening story on their social media stories. In 2020, the platform included podcast listening data.

At last year’s Spotify Wrapped, listeners were nominated “Sound City” – selection of users by city corresponding to their favorite genres and artists.

Only time will tell what new and different data will appear in the portfolio of Spotify Wrapped users in 2024.

Does Apple Music have an end of year feature?

In 2022 Apple Music announced its version of Spotify’s final campaign called Apple Music Replay. This Apple feature includes much of the same listening data as Spotify, including a user’s top songs, top albums, top artists, and top genres for the entire year.

Apple Music Replay works a little differently than Spotify Wrapped. Starting this year, the company began releasing monthly Replay, which highlights a user’s listening habits at the end of each month.

Apple Music users can access their replay by going to the Listen Now tab in the app, scrolling to the Playing section, tapping the Replay ’24 playlist, and then selecting the plus button in the top right corner. Apple Music users will then be able to view their Replay ’24 in the Playlists section of their library for a year.

As with Spotify, Apple Music users will also get a big review of Replay ’24 meant to be shared on social media. In 2023 it was released on November 28.
