# Preload and reuse Player (iOS SDK)

<br />

# Preload Player

In your application, you can preload the Player before the user attempts to play a video. To preload the Player, create a Player as instructed [here](https://developers.dailymotion.com/v0/docs/create-a-player) and store the returned `DMPlayerView` object.

When ready to show the Player, attach the `DMPlayerView` to the desired view hierarchy and call the `load​Content()` or `play()` method depending if you already passed a video ID or a playlist ID when creating the Player.

<br />

# Reuse Player

When using the Player in your app, you can (and should) reuse the same Player instance. Therefore, a single-player instance can load multiple videos by using the [`load​Content()`](https://developers.dailymotion.com/v0/reference/web-sdk-player-methods#load-content-web) method .
