## What is Program Player?

Program Player lets figure skaters take control of their own music. No more having to flag someone down to press play for you at the boards.

Import your program music, set your countdown delay, tap play, and get into position. Program Player gives you those few seconds you need to set your opening pose before your music starts.

FEATURES

• Countdown delay — Set a custom delay so you have time to take your opening position after pressing play
• Sound Check — Test your audio connection and volume before you skate
• Audio output control — Switch between speakers, Bluetooth, and AirPlay directly in the app
• Segment marking — Mark sections of your track to practice specific parts on repeat
• Program notes — Add choreography reminders or competition details to each program
• Multiple import options — Import from Files, your Music Library, or paste a download link
• Distraction-free playback — Full-screen Now Playing view with just the essentials
