### 3/5 — Amazing but needs a feature

*2026-06-13*

This is the best MMD app alternative I’ve used but some models won’t load,and I had this app since 2022 and the textures don’t work as good and it’s hard to edit them back with the new format, and I don’t get updates and can you be able to make your own motions In the app. Also as of 06/13/26 this new update sucks and I don’t like the physics suck and hard to navagate also why did you remove the search feature

### 5/5 — Lots of bugs

*2025-08-16*

Firstly there’s a black screen glitch so I just restart the app but it stays and I had to delete the app and it deleted all my models and animations the second bug is when I load a model it loads forever and never loads in so I restart but nothing and I have to delete it once again

### 1/5 — actual negative review

### 5/5 — Black screen glitch

*2025-05-09*

I have been using this app for awhile it has many settings, easy to figure out and great customizable graphics in other words it is perfect compared to many MMD mobile alternatives, however recently I encountered an glitch when changing the graphic settings which then turned the entire app black. A glitch that was also reported by other review, despite uninstalling and redownloading it remains black with no fix.

### 3/5 — I need help

*2025-05-04*

I deleted the app and I redownloaded it and it’s just black and that’s it and I can’t open it or fix it

### 5/5 — あ

*2025-05-04, version 2025.3*

スカート、髪の毛、ロングと ボブ ヘア

### 1/5 — Bad.

*2025-04-25*

The app doesn’t work, I tried putting in my models, after struggling for hours to convert them, only for it not to work when I tried loading them.

### 5/5 — The most advanced model animation app

*2024-11-05, version 2024.10*

The app is very smooth and features are very advanced, one of the best mmd animation app on iOS. Although it does need take a lot of time to learn how to operate

### 5/5 — I’m new to using this app

*2024-11-01*

Please make it easier to use this app and add models and motions I have trouble with this app

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2026.7 — 2026-07-08

DanceXR 2026.7 makes characters feel more grounded. A major overhaul of PMX model physics brings it in line with reference MMD behavior, resolving long-standing issues where rigid bodies and joints didn't move or settle correctly, so hair, cloth, and accessories follow motion the way they should. A new shape-matching soft body holds its shape far better under motion, and feet now plant on the floor physically — tilting and rolling to match the surface and keeping toes grounded. Free posing gains direct torso and waist control plus leg locking for seated poses, and we fixed a number of user-reported motion and FBX issues. An early, experimental hand-grasp system is also included.

### 2026.6 — 2026-05-31

DanceXR 2026.6 is all about hands-on control. A brand-new interactive posing system lets you grab and drag points on a character's body to set limbs directly, with clear on-body handles, depth control, and foot pinning. Underneath, a full-body balance system rebuilt from the ground up keeps characters settling, shifting weight, and swaying naturally, with better landing and hip-and-knee behavior. The chat assistant is smarter too, adding an assistant mode with voice commands and in-chat actions to search characters, switch characters, and change scenes. Fluid simulation and motion both look more lifelike, and an improved inherit-bone fix restores correct playback for many models.

### 2025.7 — 2025-08-14

DanceXR 2025.7 introduces a new sky shader with moon and aurora effects, refined motion curves for smoother movements, and various improvements. Enhance your experience with updated visuals and motion algorithms.

### 2025.5a — 2025-05-12

Bug fixes

### 2025.5 — 2025-05-04

Posterization effects, audio visualizer and more!
