How to find Apple Music Replay
Fun annual feature is not the easiest to find.

For a lot of people, Apple Music Replay is a real highlight.
The year-end roundup tells you your most-played songs, artists, albums and the like over the past 12 months — just like the much-loved Spotify Wrapped.
Unfortunately, my own year-end stats are completely ruined by family members playing abominable music by Whitney Houston and others on our kitchen HomePod. Luckily, there’s a fix (which I’ve yet to implement).
Yet for such a popular feature, Replay is pretty buried in the Apple Music app. Here’s how to dig it up.
Also in today’s newsletter:
Have you seen Slow Horses, the acerbic Brit spy comedy/thriller on Apple TV+? It’s gotta be my overall favorite show on the platform, and I’m itching to get started on season three, which just debuted. Here are three good reasons you should be watching it, too.
Equipped with a tiny fan, a humble MacBook Air can perform like a MacBook Pro — too bad it’s just a demo.
Stainless steel makes for a great Apple Watch band, and these from Elago are a real steal at just $20.

I have an admission to make: I never felt my iPhone display is vibrant enough, so I turn on Color Filter and change it to the blue and yellow filter ever so slightly.
It makes a big difference. Everything pops more. 🤷♂️

One more thing ...
You always have to keep pushing to innovate. Dylan could have sung protest songs forever and probably made a lot of money, but he didn’t. He had to move on, and when he did, by going electric in 1965, he alienated a lot of people. His 1966 Europe tour was his greatest. He would come on and do a set of acoustic guitar, and the audiences loved him. Then he brought out what became The Band, and they would all do an electric set, and the audience sometimes booed. There was one point where he was about to sing “Like a Rolling Stone” and someone from the audience yells “Judas!” And Dylan then says, “Play it fucking loud!” And they did. The Beatles were the same way. They kept evolving, moving, refining their art. That’s what I’ve always tried to do — keep moving. Otherwise, as Dylan says, if you’re not busy being born, you’re busy dying.
