On Apple Music, the 2022 review feature is called Apple Music Replay. The best place to get your highlights is Online: Sign in with your Apple ID credentials, then select Begin and Play the highlight reel to see a musical journey through your music listening habits over the past year.
The stats provided by Apple Music Replay are pretty standard: The number of minutes you spent listening to tunes, the songs you listened to the most, the artists you listened to the most, and the genres that caught your attention the most. Scroll down to see more information about your listening habits.
In the actual Apple Music apps—desktop and mobile—this highlight reel isn’t actually available, which seems strange. What will you find inside the apps, if you open the app Listen to me tab, is a playlist that collects your most played songs from the past year—you can choose to add it to your library if you want to keep it.

You may be invited to view the 2022 Recap as soon as you open YouTube Music.
YouTube Music is called Year End Listening Summary and if you open the app Online you will see the Summary section. If not, click your profile picture (top right), then click your channel. You’ll see summaries for spring, summer, fall, and winter, as well as for the entire year.
Your listening history is broken down into your favorite tracks, artists, and genres, and you also get some other fixed information—like how many tunes you go back and listen to again or Which live version do you prefer over five. You also get a playlist of your top 100 songs of the year.
