It's that time of year again when your friends take to social media and brag about how many hours of Charli XCX they've listened to this year. With Spotify Wrapped expected to land any day now, expect your timeline to be full of the same boasts of being an artist's No. 1 fan. But, what if you're not as much of a music fan and spend your days glued to the screen instead of with a pair of AirPods jammed in your ear?
This is where Netflix Wrapped comes in, doing what it says on the tin and revealing how much time you've spent watching Netflix instead of tidying the house, walking the dog, or socializing with others.
Kapwing has released its own Unofficial Netflix Wrapped this festive season, breaking down what you've been watching. The free service breaks down your habits with the streaming giant and promises not to take any data from you, so give it a go.

Whether it’s being addicted to Bridgerton, binging Selling Sunset, or giving yourself nightmares with The Fall of the House of Usher, Netflix Wrapped tells you how many hours you've put into the platform in 2024.
As well as showcasing which genre is your favorite, it tells you which (likely hungover) day you watched Netflix the most, and which movie you saw is the most critically acclaimed. We've got to agree that Bridesmaids is an absolute classic, although we're not sure many of you were rushing to watch Madame Web when it swung onto Netflix.
There are a LOT of streaming services out there these days, and while we wish it were simpler, you've got to juggle HBO for The Last of Us, Prime Video for The Boys, and Disney+ for Agatha All Along. Despite all the newcomers, Netflix is still sitting pretty as the most downloaded streaming app in the USA.
Cheering on Netflix Wrapped as a Christmas cracker, Liam Curtis, Kapwing Head of Content said: "Netflix Wrapped is something that we're really proud of. The 'minutes watched' section and 'most bingeful day' are the most popular features, for sure.
“It's fun to look back and remember that day you decided to start re-watching a certain series and couldn't stop — in my case, Stranger Things in October!"
With stats and information pulled across the web from the likes of IMDb, Netflix Wrapped gives you more than your average experience. The idea is that Netflix Wrapped can give you an idea of what you might want to watch next if you're particularly drawn to a specific actor or director.

Don't blame us when you realize you've spent the equivalent of six days watching LOST for the fourth time instead of sorting your life out. With the final season of Stranger Things soon on the way, we imagine it'll be soaring to the top of many people's Netflix Wrapped in 2025.
