Hi folks! PaceDJ has a new update on the Apple App Store. We have expanded BPM shifting to a max range of +/- 30 BPM and also squashed some bugs.

Separately, we want to let you know that going forward PaceDJ will have a free and subscription tier. The free tier has ads that appear every few songs. You can dismiss them and continue using the app.

If you upgrade to subscription ($0.99/month), the ads go away and you can unlock interval training and the song “dislike” button. This will enable you to remove songs you don’t like from the playlist.

Recently, Pacing Technologies, LLC updated PaceDJ to include interval workouts.  In a recent article, The New York Times notes that PaceDJ offers an interval training feature that “can deliver a staged workout that starts at a slower pace, picks up, then slows down again.”

You can also create your own custom intervals.  Check out the screen shot below.
