Not bad but... needs a few things
The app itself is great, flawless, easy to connect to PS5. It is cool that you can control the game form the app. But it is just not the way, that you have to hold your phone in your hands while dancing.
I have an iPhone12 Pro Max and it is really uncomfortable to hold it during the play. My kids can’t even hold it. Though this is a family game I suppose.
Please make the game work with the PS5 camera!!! Or just make it Apple Watch compatible. Not necessary to control the game from the app, more important is the comfort and freedom. Dancing is freedom. You can’t be free while holding a phone during dancing.
Not really usable yet…
I thought that it would use the camera of the phone, not the gyroscope… It is very uncomfortable to hold the phone while dancing, little ones can’t even do it.
I would not recommend buying this.

Dear Ubisoft , please include Apple Watch controller support for consoles as well for the smoothest experience . It has the same Quality motion controls

Beginner Tips Every Just Dance 2022 Player Needs
The game that promises to keep everyone dancing makes a return once again with Just Dance 2022, the latest installment of the ever-popular dance rhythm video game series by Ubisoft.
The series continues to prove successful for the company, even besting some of its recent Triple-A titles.
A lot of that success can be attributed to the games' broad appeal and relatively low learning curve, meaning that just about anyone with a passing interest in music or dancing can give it a shot. Not much has changed since 2021, so veteran players should have no trouble navigating its menus and loading up any of the newly added songs. But for anyone planning to try out the game for the first time, or after a long break from the series, here are a few things worth keeping in mind.
RELATED: The Best Just Dance Games Of All Time
Updated January 20, 2022, by Michael Abayomi: Just Dance 2022 continues to provide entertainment and exercise for fans young and old. We've updated this list to include two additional entries that should help both new and returning players get a hang of those trickier dance routines even faster.
7/7 Available Platforms
One of the first things anyone looking to get into Just Dance 2022 should know is on what platforms the game is available.
Like most years, the latest installment of Just Dance is available to play on just about every modern console and gaming service. These include the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Google Stadia. Wii owners have been left out though as support for the Nintendo Wii was dropped with last year's release of Just Dance 2021.
Each platform offers its own unique advantages, like portability on the Nintendo Switch for example, and the ability to take the game with you anywhere you go. The game is still not available on PC for whatever reason though, unless you're willing to settle for Just Dance Now instead, their cloud-based subscription service that works with smartphones and an internet browser, and offers a vast library of past Just Dance hits for players to dance to.
6/7 The Song List
Players of Just Dance 2022 should definitely take the time to familiarize themselves with the list of songs that come with the game. After all, a new Just Dance game is just as good as the songs on its playlist.
Thankfully, Just Dance 2022 comes packed with quite a few bangers. These include recent hits like Save Your Tears (Remix) by The Weeknd & Ariana Grande, and Levitating by Dua Lipa, to older classics like Buttons by The Pussycat Dolls and Rock Your Body by Justin Timberlake. There are 46 songs in total, including 5 regional exclusives.
RELATED: Just Dance 2022: The Best Songs
And for those players craving even more songs, they'll be pleased to find out that the game comes with a one-month free trial of Just Dance Unlimited (another one of their subscription services) that includes over 700 songs from past games and elsewhere. If you've happened to listen to pop radio or the Top 40 charts anytime within the past two decades, then chances are you should recognize quite a few of them. The best part is that the game offers a nice mix of songs and genres - from rock to pop and even South African house music - ensuring that all types of music lovers will find songs to immediately gravitate towards.
5/7 The Different Editions
Aside from being available across multiple platforms, Just Dance 2022 also has two different editions for players to choose from. There is the standard edition which costs $49.99 at launch and comes with 40+ songs, as well as the one-month free trial of Just Dance Unlimited mentioned above. Then there is the deluxe edition which retails for $59.99 at launch.
The main difference between both versions, aside from sporting slightly different cover art, is that the deluxe edition comes with four months of Just Dance Unlimited. That is the one-month free trial from the standard edition, as well as an additional three months subscription valued at $9.99. There are additional renewal options for Just Dance Unlimited at $3.99 for one month and $24.99 for a full year. It is worth noting that an internet connection will be required to use the service, since the songs are streamed over the internet, as opposed to played from a disc or hard drive like the ones that come with the base game.
4/7 The Controller Options
Just Dance 2022 is a rhythm game and as such, the game is played primarily through motion controls. This means that PlayStation players would want to have a PlayStation Camera handy, while Nintendo Switch players will need to use their left or right joy-cons. Players on the former can take advantage of the peripheral's more accurate, full-body tracking.
RELATED: The Best Games That Use Motion Sensor Controls, Ranked
Xbox Series S and X players on the other hand might have to fish out their old Kinect sensor bars to join in on the fun, because not only does the game not offer support for traditional controllers, it also doesn't allow them to use any other type of camera. Thankfully, all versions can also be played with a compatible smartphone, using the Just Dance Controller app available on the Apple Store and Google Play Store. Though it is worth noting that Nintendo Switch users will still require a joy-con to get past the game's start screen, even if they intend to use their smartphones to play during the actual songs and dance routines.
3/7 The Different Modes
Just Dance 2022 has no shortage of game modes available for players to choose from, which can be quite daunting for newbies. The good news though is that it gives an option to dive right in with a randomized playlist in the Quickplay Mode. For anyone looking to explore the other available options, the game has quite a few.
There is the Co-op Mode, where up to six players can play together locally, using supported peripherals and smartphones. Then there is the World Dance Floor, where you can play with other players around the world in a tournament-styled competition. Sweat Mode is geared towards fitness buffs, and it lets you start your own routine and track the calories burnt along the way. And then there is the Kids Mode, which, as the name suggests, is geared towards children with family-friendly songs and simpler routines.
2/7 Song Difficulty
As was the case with previous entries in the series, Just Dance 2022 has a number of songs for players to choose from.
But not all of those songs are created equally. Parents will be pleased to know that younger players have a kid-friendly playlist of songs with simplified dance routines that shouldn't cause them too much frustration.
But for everyone else, they might want to be mindful of their chosen song's difficulty, which can be seen on the song selection screen. There are alternative dance routines for some of the songs that turn them into full-blown workouts, so it is best to avoid them until you are ready to break a sweat. Those looking for an even greater challenge can also unlock an extreme mode on certain songs once they've racked up enough points, which can effectively turn a previously-mastered song into a gauntlet of skill and endurance.
1/7 Practice Makes Perfect
The key to mastery in Just Dance 2022 comes with taking the time to learn the various dance routines. The good news is that most of them have repeating movements that are generally easy to follow. But knowing when to expect them can be quite tricky the first time around.
This is where practice comes in, as you'll grow more familiar with the ebb and flow of each song and its routine the more times you go over them. There is no shortcut to putting in that practice, unfortunately, at least if you intend to stop flailing about awkwardly each time you miss another move which you should have seen coming a mile away. Acquiring the skills needed to dance to each song like one of the pros is relatively straightforward, you'll just need to put in the time and effort.

Crashes out of the app
Good afternoon, earlier it was quite easy to play. Now throws out of the application as soon as you connect. (iPhone 11). Tried updating, doesn't help.
Apple Watch support
It is already necessary to make support for the watch, because their 5th generation has already been released!
phones are huge in size and holding different movements in your hand is dangerous both for other players and for the phone because it will slip out and break!!!!
do support the more there are all the conditions for development and sensors in the clock !!!
The phone does not connect to Just dance on a laptop!!!
Why can't the phone connect now?! Does anyone have it connected?

Fitness on game consoles
Updated: 12/10/2022
We have put together a selection of fitness games that will help you keep your body in good shape and make the process of physical training more fun and exciting.
Fitness games are a very specific genre: obviously not suitable for seated gaming at the computer, and often such projects require special conditions. No, not a membership to a fitness club, but at least PC or console equipment (such as a VR headset, motion sensors or a camera) and enough free space in the room. Be sure to consider this before starting classes.
In this compilation, we recommend the best games for kids and adults across a wide range of platforms including PC, consoles and mobile devices. They will replace your fitness room and allow you to actively train at home. It is worth noting that some of these projects do not belong to the category of sports, but they make you move actively, and therefore will be a good alternative to games dedicated exclusively to fitness.
PowerBeatsVR - VR Fitness (VR)
is a VR simulator that offers players a set of workouts accompanied by energetic music. The developers have prepared a series of challenges aimed at developing different muscle groups: you have to box, dodge obstacles, crouch and jump - all in fantastic scenery, from outer space to the landscape of a distant planet.
PowerBeatsVR - VR Fitness is compatible with Valve Index, Oculus Rift, HTC Vive and Windows Mixed Reality, includes a leaderboard where you can compare your progress with players from all over the world, and includes a level editor to create custom maps. And be sure - it will make you sweat!
Ring Fit Adventure (Nintendo switch)
Ring Fit Adventure is a very successful fitness game for the Nintendo Switch: it has consistently been in the top sellers, even though it requires an additional purchase of a special controller.
How did the project deserve such recognition? This is an entertaining adventure in which you control a character by moving in front of your TV. You need to run in place to move the hero through the fantasy world, raise the controller above his head to perform attacks and get into yoga poses to restore health. It is full of mini-games, there is a progression system, and the developers regularly fill the project with fresh content.
Fitness Boxing (Nintendo switch)
This project, true to its name, mixes fitness and boxing: following the coach's commands, you will perform jabs, hooks and uppercuts to the songs of popular artists, striking an imaginary opponent.
The game has clear goals and complete workout systems to suit specific scenarios - whether you want to lose weight, build muscle or tone up. There is also the opportunity to track your progress, plan future classes, increase or decrease the load.
Just Dance Series (pc, Nintendo, PlayStation, Xbox)
Just Dance is a dance game where you follow a choreographer on the screen. Each installment in the series is filled with fresh hits and classics, and Just Dance Unlimited allows you to extend your enjoyment beyond the base game's playlist.
Of course, Just Dance can't be called just a fitness game: the set of dances here is quite extensive, and they vary in tempo - from slow to very dynamic.
However, these projects are great for a little warm-up or even a serious workout, and among the playlists there are special selections of tracks for intense workouts.
The Thrill of the Fight - VR Boxing (VR)
This VR game for Valve Index, HTC Vive, Oculus Rift and WMR is all about boxing, where you have to compete in the ring with your opponents and win the world glory. The developers have implemented a very reliable gameplay, and you can hone your skills by warming up with different types of sports equipment.
The Thrill of the Fight - VR Boxing is suitable for pumping cardio: the game squeezes all the juice out of gamers due to its intensity. We advise you to make sure that there are no fragile objects within reach - you will be very active waving your arms!
Beat Saber (VR)
A popular simulator for virtual devices in which players must break the blocks flying at them to the rhythm of the music. The game will delight you with dynamic gameplay, a large number of compositions and a wide selection of mods with which you can turn the training room into any fictional world - even fantasy, even fantastic.
Beat Saber is designed for PS4, Oculus Quest and Windows compatible VR devices. This is not exactly a fitness game, but it makes you move actively, and therefore deserves, in our opinion, a place in this collection.
Zumba: Burn It Up (Nintendo switch)
Zumba is a kind of dance fitness, a set of workouts for incendiary Latin American motives. Get into the sport without having to go to the gym with Zumba: Burn It Up for Nintendo Switch.
Using joycons, you will complete tasks under the guidance of world-famous trainers, and the training program can be adjusted to your level of fitness and health. This game is also great for kids - it's fun, colorful and energizes players!
BoxVR (VR)
Another VR boxing simulator. However, you won't have to fight with opponents, even virtual ones - instead of them, bright spheres fly at you, which you need to shoot down with hooks, jabs and other tricks.
The game is adapted to all current platforms and is great for intense workouts.
Moreover, you will be able to track your results, plan to increase or decrease the load, as well as follow the advice of leading masters and choose music tracks for classes.
OhShape (VR)
And this virtual reality rhythm game is based on Japanese TV shows, in which participants must strike predetermined positions to avoid falling off the platform.
OhShape makes you move not only your arms, but your whole body, which means it will serve as a tool for a high-quality, intense workout that will energize all your muscles. The gameplay is not limited to just repeating poses: you will dodge obstacles, box, collect coins and so on.
Zombies, Run! (Android, ios)
An epic Android app that combines running and surviving the zombie apocalypse. You start the game, put on your headphones, and soon after the start of your workout, you hear the walking dead begin to haunt you. Each race is a mission where different goals are set for you and where you need to achieve outstanding results.
The game contains several modes that differ from each other in complexity and intensity.
Fitness RPG (Android, ios)
Another game for mobile platforms that turns training into a game. Fitness RPG is a real character-building RPG: you convert your steps into energy and power up your characters with it. Accordingly, the more you walk, the more powerful the fighters become. In addition, the PvP component is implemented here: you have to fight other players and rush to the top of the rating table!
The above is a list of games currently available on current platforms.
However, we can’t help but mention projects for consoles that have gone down in history: if you are into retrogaming and want to keep yourself in good shape, then pay attention to games such as Zumba Fitness for Wii, PS3, X360, Wii Fit Plus for Wii, Nike+ Kinect Training for the X360, Your Shape: Fitness Evolved for the X360, Wii Fit U for the Wii U.
These titles are a great way to dust off an old console shelf and get active.
