Press Play and Go 2 is the music manager for group fitness instructors. It allows playlists to be created from your music as well as twenty-three Les Mills programmes. Plus a number for MOSSA, SOULfusion, David Lloyd, POP Pilates, and others. We even know Beachbody if you go that far back. It recognises both the original and cover versions so you can create classes most suitable for the music licences where you teach. If you add the choreography that will also display for each track. Add your music to your account and our secure cloud. It will download as required so you will always have the perfect songs available when teaching. We never stream so you are guaranteed to always play during class. Add your choreography and it will always be available with your music. Great for learning new releases as well as revising when mixing. Teach with confidence as the app plays with all the music and between-track pauses you have scheduled. Never run over time again. Quickly build new playlists. Add in pauses and alerts that match your classes. Practice with features allowing you to slow down and repeat sections. Teach your class and allow the app to cue the music and let participants know when the next track will be starting. Tired of having to keep adjusting the volume? All your songs in class automatically play at the same volume level. The problems of mixing the whisper-quiet old songs with the excessively-loud new ones are now gone. There's a big new display for teaching which is easily seen across a large room. Your participants will now have no excuse as they can see exactly just how much longer they have to survive to the end of the lunge track. View your private reports on your classes and get a general overview of what others are doing around the world. Make your cooldown song quieter so your participants can hear you talk about what they have just achieved. You will always know the music licence for each song and where it can be played. Want a quick view of features? Have a look at the YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@PressPlayAndGo2 It automatically keeps a history of when and where you played every track. Easily keep a log of all your participant attendance so you can see how things are trending. Generate a report of all your classes in a time range to help with your invoicing. There’s loads of little features strewn throughout to make your role as an instructor easier and more fun. Want to use upper and lower-body warmups from different releases in Combat? Go ahead. Want to use tai-chi as the opening track in Balance by default? Enjoy. Want to go old-skool and run around the room at the end of track 8 in Combat? Get running. More big improvements over the first version of the app many instructors found indispensable? All songs and choreography documents are individually matched so no more needing to add the full release. Add your choreography, create a mix, and it will generate a document containing all the choreography for the songs in your mix. We now use our own server to avoid songs turning into versions you didn't expect and had trouble playing. You can have multiple devices and your playlists and class history will sync automatically across all of them. All the class formats of a quarterly release can now be created with a tap, not just the most common one. Create your account and you can upload 1GB of your media for free while you check out all the features. Some things remain the same in that this app does not sell nor provide access to any music files that are not your own. All music and choreography must be purchased and supplied by the user and should only be obtained by registered instructors either directly from the relevant company or authorised distributors. X3 Pty Ltd has no connection at all to any fitness product provider apart from participating in a lot of their classes over the last 19 years. ## Key features - Playlist creation with music and choreography - Automatic volume leveling - Display of choreography cues - Offline music playback - Class history and attendance tracking - Invoicing reports - Practice mode with slow-down and repeat ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Quarterly subscription | $5.99 | one-time | | Annual subscription | $22.99 | one-time | | Half-Yearly subscription | $11.99 | one-time | ## Recent user reviews (10 of 18) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/press-play-and-go-2/id1639478546/reviews.md ### 3/5 — Still buggy, but works *2025-03-27* The concept is well executed, the cloud storage aspect is a lifesaver for those with large libraries. I like the fine grain control of tracks and the availability of notes being associated with tracks. I think the user feedback count be improved, such as scrolling issues when selecting replacement tracks. Often the app is unusable until restarted a few times when the scrolling issue occurs. It’d also be nice if when the “download track” button is selected, there was some immediate feedback of whether or not the download began or not. Otherwise, I’m a fan, and hope to see the issues cleaned out over time ### 3/5 — Great but time consuming! *2025-03-10, version 2024.354* I loved the first PPG app! Easy and hassle free. Didn’t need any data and could swap out tracks last min. THIS ONE HAS SOME GREAT FEATURES BUT IT TAKES SO LONG TO ADD YOUR RELEASES I HAVE TO GO BACK TO THE OLD APP WHEN IM MIXING! …. I would get out my laptop once a quarter before to add new releases but now I’m having to try constantly to add a few at a time! I’ll see how it goes and decide if I’ll renew it next year! 🤔 Happy to pay but just want something more simple…..If I could just add my iTunes library in one go I’d be much happier with it. ### 1/5 — It doesn’t even work *2025-03-07, version 2024.354* This app is terrible. The previous app was great. This app won’t even work. Can’t find out what songs I have. You can’t even press Play ### 1/5 — Uploading Music *2025-02-15, version 2024.354* I took out a subscription and have been able to use this version as the developer has not been able to confirm music uploads. Considering I used the previous version which has all my music uploads to BP129 this situation is OUTRAGEOUS. It is complicated to use as it is and would not recommend the app. ### 5/5 — 10+ year BodyPump and RPM Instructor *2024-12-21* I love this app!!! It makes teaching, practicing and building playlists incredibly easy! I teach at 4 different clubs 5x every week; and this app tracks what I teach, where I teach, class sizes, etc. I’m also extremely happy with the incredibly responsive support. I haven’t needed it much, but when I hit an error, it was quickly resolved. And the error was on my end. Thank you for building this app! It has my full endorsement! ### 5/5 — Elevated App *2024-11-26* It took me a while to transition to his new format - I was holding on to the old version for dear life. But now I am learning how to use it - with the help of tutorials and the Slack channel - and I am really excited by all the features. ### 5/5 — Love it for teaching and tracking *2024-11-23* I’ve used PPAG2 for a year and love it for teaching, practicing, and tracking my classes and playlists. Like everything else in life, there was a learning curve, but the help button on each screen and the short videos on Facebook help. I love being able to search for a type of track and playing a snip to recognize it, or seeing when I last used a track in class. It takes time and effort to load your media, yes, but then you can switch devices without redoing that work. I was a fan of PPAG, but understand from the developer’s explanations why the new version was needed. Code has changed and keeping the old one going was a losing battle. Dev and users are responsive to questions in the slack support channel. I think the app is great and very cost effective for teaching, plus the reporting features. ### 4/5 — Good with some quirks *2024-11-20* It’s got its quirks, but after getting used to them, I’ll never use another app ### 2/5 — I was a fan and was hoping it would work. *2024-11-01* The old one was great and took some work to get the entire bodypump cannon in there, but was worth it. After uploading to the new one music you apparently need to give it a while ( days?)to show your music. Not practical, essentially unusable. Great UI though.! Pitty one can't actually use it. ### 1/5 — Don’t fix it if it’s not broken *2024-10-31* Wow. I understand a learning curve and new developments, iterations and new versions to improve but this app was over-engineered to the point where nothing makes sense. The reason I loved PPG was due to its simplicity and the fact that it just pulled from the data stored on my phone. I mainly practice when I am in my car so switching, toggling, tapping 3 times and going down a rabbit hole to change one setting isn’t worth my time. I would pay triple to just go back to the OG version. I really do appreciate the dev’s time and effort but I wish there would have been customer/instructor feedback before launching a new program. The more I play/use it, the more counterintuitive this app has clearly become. Also, is there not a sliding feature to quickly get to a certain part of the song? That’s 99 percent of my usage right there 😩 #proversion1 ## Frequently asked questions about Press Play and Go 2 ### What is the main purpose of Press Play and Go 2?
