PlayTally: Apple Music Stats

Interesting concept! It’s a shame that you can’t use data from before installing the app, but that seems to be a limitation with Apple Music rather than the app. The UI and rewards are very nice and it definitely feels at home in iOS.

Makes it so easy to track listening history, over any time period which is nice. Great insights into how you listen. But sometimes it glitches and says you listened to a random song 200 times. Which can mess things up.

I’ve been using this app for about a year now, and I’m sad to say it doesn’t work very well. It only makes note of maybe half to two thirds of the songs I listen to, especially if they’re songs on repeat. It also continues to ask me pretty regularly about a song that it detected an “unusually high” number of playbacks for—an occurrence from one day last summer. Overall it just isn’t a very reliable way to keep track, sadly.

Only complaint is that it doesn’t accurately count the number of songs played, it shows it in the catalog but doesn’t count it, so it’s a little off

edit: do you remember on the trending tab there was a button on the right below the calendar that said ‘rank’? it was to the right of the artist, albums, or genres button. and there was an option to make the songs trend by like a mix of play count, time listened, skip count, etc. i just thought it was really cool and unique to rank the songs more diversely but i think it went away in a recent update. i don’t know if you could bring this back or not but it would be really cool if you could i really enjoyed that feature 😭 sorry. other than that this app is amazing i love it!! if you do get around to doing this, thank you so much !!!

Great app but the data is inaccurate most of the time. The first time an album is played, the songs aren’t counted. When a song is on repeat, sometimes the app doesn’t count all of the plays. I’ve also run into the app not counting songs in my playlist. I’m not quite sure how to get around these bugs and/or inaccuracies.

PlayTally has been a great app to view my music stats and I’ve loved it every since I got it. The only problem I have with it is that sometimes it will count a song twice (says that it’s been played in the same minute) and it will do this for every stream that happened in a day. Sometimes it doesn’t happen but most of the time it does and I have to manually remove streams to make it more accurate. Would be great if you made it so it would auto-remove a double stream for a song that says it been played two times in the same minute. Besides that, I’ve have had an amazing experience and will continue to use it. Hope this gets fixed

love playtally but syncing is so slow :(

I was originally complaining about inaccurate counts, but the developer responded and told me what to do to fix it! I have zero complaints now and I love this app. 😛😛

I just want to first start off by thanking you for such an amazing app! I have had PlayTally downloaded since the first of the year and have thoroughly enjoyed checking my music stats daily and have experienced very little to no problems since purchase. However, over the past 72 hours most every time I open the app and refresh to do a playback I’m prompted with a message that says it has detected multiple playbacks of the same song and then asks to keep all or the most recent. Whenever given the choice I click to keep the most recent, but several of the times I’m not given the choice and my song history is then spammed with 20+ “plays” of the same song each with asterisks next to it. It’s very frustrating and has only just started doing this now so I’m very confused. Such a great app but it’s getting frustrating having to go through and delete all the incorrect playbacks
