## What is Counts?

Learn the routine, not the remote.

Counts turns any routine video into a practice partner. Mirror it so the dancer's left is your left, slow it down without the music going flat, loop the eight you keep missing, and see the counts big enough to read from across the room. Stand your phone on a table, press play and dance.

FOLLOW IT LIKE A MIRROR
• Flip any routine with one tap, so you can follow it like your reflection
• Import from Photos or Files: class videos, lesson recordings, a coach's demo
• Your videos are copied into Counts; the originals stay where they are

SLOW IT DOWN, KEEP IT IN TUNE
• 25% to 150% speed, with the music at its own pitch
• Step through a move one frame or one count at a time
• Speed ladder: play a loop at 50%, then 75%, then full speed

BIG 8-COUNTS
• The count, 1 to 8, in large type, plus which eight you're on ("8s: 3 of 12")
• Tap along to the beat to set the tempo, then mark the 1
• Optional "&" counts for triple steps and quick footwork
• Half time and double time, fine-tuned to a tenth of a beat

LOOP THE HARD PART
• Name sections by eights ("Intro 1–2", "Turn 3–4") or by time, then loop any of them
• Or set an A–B loop anywhere
• Every loop counts you in with "5, 6, 7, 8", spoken or clicked, on the beat
• Count along while you dance, in a voice or with clicks

SEE YOURSELF BESIDE THE ROUTINE
• Turn on the front camera to watch yourself next to the routine
• Record a take: Counts counts you in, films one pass of the loop and lines it up with the routine
• Review your take side by side with the routine, in sync, at any speed, and mirror either side
• Save a take to Photos or share it with your teacher

STAND IT UP
• Stand mode puts the routine on the top half and giant counts with big buttons on the bottom half, readable from arm's length
• The screen stays awake while you practice

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no sign-in, no ads, no tracking
• Videos and takes stay on your iPhone; nothing is uploaded
• The camera records video only; Counts never uses the microphone
