The Just Dance 2015 Motion Controller app is a new mobile phone application that turns your smartphones into a motion controller to play Just Dance 2015!
It allows owners of Xbox One and PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system to play Just Dance 2015 even without owning a Kinect®, PlayStation® Camera or Playstation® Move Motion Controller to track movement and score dance moves.

What is the difference with Just Dance Now?
Just Dance 2015 Motion Controller app is a companion app. It is a free new way for you to experience Just Dance 2015 on your Xbox One or PS4 system when Just Dance NOW is a mobile game to play with a connected screen.
The Just Dance 2015 Motion Controller app enables people to play Just Dance 2015 on their system, and access the exclusive features of the game: the freshest tracklist, the brand new Challenger mode, and lots of other very cool social features, like the great World Dance Floor that invites you to dance with Just Dancers from all over the world!
Unlike Just Dance Now, you don’t need an Internet-connected screen to play the game: just your Xbox One or PS4 system. Then purchase Just Dance 2015 in your favorite store to dance on your favorite songs and discover the exciting new features of the game.
On what platform is it available?
Just Dance 2015 Motion Controller app can be used on both Xbox One and PS4 systems, and compatible with iOS 6+ and Android 4+.
What mobile is it working with?
The app is compatible with all iPhones or iPods running under iOS 6+ and Android phones running under Android 4+.
Will it be extended to other platforms?
It’s not in development at this time on other platform than Xbox One and PS4. Developing an innovation such as Just Dance 2015 motion controller app has been possible thanks to next gen console and their powerful engine and online features.
How does it work exactly? Is it Wi-Fi or 3G connected?
The app works on Wi-Fi: simply connect your smartphone to the same Wi-Fi network as your console. Your console will automatically appear in the list of available systems to connect to, on the app. You will still need a proper controller / pad to navigate in the menu, though.
Is it free?
Your can download and use of the app for free.
How many players can play?
This app is a new controller option for you to experience Just Dance 2015. Whether you play with the camera or with your phone, you can dance up to 6 on Xbox one and 4 on PS4.
Does this technology work with other games? Is it planned for the future?
The technology at the heart of the mobile scoring is unique to the Just Dance games. It started a few weeks ago with Ubi BlueStar on Just Dance Now: Ubisoft has built up an innovative architecture using a smartphone controller, a connected second screen and online servers that enable people to be tracked and score in real time with their phone, and stream high quality gameplay to many different types of screens and browsers.
The Just Dance 2015 Motion Controller app works on a similar principle of mobile scoring, to enable Xbox One and PS4 users to be tracked and dance & score on their favorite game, even if they don’t own a camera.
We are willing to offer our players the most flexible experience on Just Dance games: whether they own a console or not, whether they have a camera or not, there is a Just Dance game for them.
What is the difference with other motion control devices (such as Kinect, PS Move, Eye Toy…)? What is the best experience possible?
We wanted to allow anyone to play Just Dance 2015, either they have a motion control device or not. We also wanted to provide the players who switched from the old gen consoles to the next gen ones the possibility to rediscover the experience they used to have on Wii for example.
The premium experience is with Kinect®, or PlayStation® Camera as it enables you to dance hands-free, and access exclusive features such as Autodance, Karaoke, and Community Remix application thanks to the camera.
Nevertheless, the Just Dance 2015 Motion Controller app keeps the gameplay exactly the same, and is more suitable in case of limited playground.
What security measures must be taken in order to play safely? (Distance to other players / walls / furniture…)
There are no specific security measures to use the Just Dance 2015 motion controller app. It is actually a new way for people who have limited space in their living room to play Just Dance 2015 without having to respect a specific distance between players
What if my mobile slips and ends up in my TV?
Just like with any other motion controller device that can be used to play Just Dance 2015 (Wiimotes, PlayStation Move controller), we recommend that you attach a strap to your mobile device and maintain the strap around your wrist while you play. You can find some in dedicated mobile accessories store or on the Uplay Store [include link].
