Dancers, cheerleaders, or anyone who practices music-based routines: Ever get tired of scrubbing in your mp3 player to find a certain spot in the music at practice? I did! So I made a time-saving app just for us! Here's what MixPlay does: - Easily import your routine music from email, Dropbox, a URL, or a purchased downloaded iTunes song (**but Apple does not allow importing from an Apple Music subscription). - Quickly define the sections of your routine. - Play each section in one tap! Scrubbing blows. - Adjust the tempo. - Set it to auto-repeat to drill a section. - Play your music offline. - No music yet? Use our free "Spoken 8-counts" track. * MixPlay does not edit, combine, or create music tracks. Think of how much practice time you'll save, all for the price of a coffee! If you have any problems or suggestions, let me know at corey@mixplayapp.com. Thanks! -Corey PS - I'm working on some other helpful tools for coaches, mixers, and choreographers.

The call

MixPlay routine's advantage is review sentiment (55% vs 14%) and chart position (#141 vs unranked). On update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
