PLEASE COME BACK TO UPDATING THIS GAME I LOVE IT IT! ### 4/5 — great, but needs changes *2025-12-12, version 3.23.9* i love this game! i want to buy certain things like new partners and dances, but the gems take a long time to save up and not everyone has the money to buy them. maybe make it possible to get more gems at a time. also, add more dance styles like contemporary and jazz and new pros like ezra and jan! ### 3/5 — One issue *2025-09-19, version 3.23.9* I like it a lot I have one complaint tho. Can u fix it so when u are on ur last move and on that last move u complete the 18/18 for a certain color and make it so u can do that dance move? Bc I had 0 moves left but on that last move I competed the 18/18 blues but it wouldn’t let me perform the dance move. The only way to get the “amazing performance” was to pay 50 gems to get 5 more moves even tho I could’ve done it prior to spending gems. Please fix this <3 ### 4/5 — More Dance Styles and Challenges *2025-08-18, version 3.23.9* It’s been fun playing this game since it started a long time ago. Right now, it’s boring because it’s still focusing on the same old routine. Training and rehearsals during the week and live shows on weekends. I was hoping there would be more features and challenges so it wouldn’t be so boring. Examples like a timeline/storyline trivia, mini game challenges, and new dances, like foxtrot, mambo and freestyle. ### 5/5 — Good game *2025-06-05, version 3.23.9* It’s is very good game I love dancing with the stars. ### 4/5 — Update *2025-05-21, version 3.23.9* This game this a really big update with a lot with a lot of thing ### 5/5 — Amazing be back on game again *2025-05-15, version 3.23.9* I don’t what did update but this amazing I getting more chances do better I’ve not back for while but happy say game just good when first downloaded keep it up I love some new outfits I think amazing idea help game doing events get rare dressed or even new one this amazing game needs keep going new dances should added at well if anymore to add thanks again game amazing you guys keep up amazing work ### 5/5 — More dances *2025-05-15, version 3.23.9* I wish there was some more dances and I wish the other dances were free instead of having to pay to get the, it other then that the game is really good ### 5/5 — Need more Dances *2025-05-12, version 3.23.9* Love the game a lot wish there were more Dances than the ones given. More Pro Dancers and more Challenges ### 5/5 — I love this *2025-04-18, version 3.23.0* I love DWTS it’s my favorite dancing show and this is my fav game ### 5/5 — Best games ever ⭐️ *2025-04-01, version 3.23.0* Best game ever ⭐️🔥also I’m like see more dance 🕺 like foxtrot samba also contemporary also like music 🎵 today, ### 4/5 — It is good but needs one improvement *2025-03-30, version 3.23.0* I love this game but as a avid watcher of DWTS it doesn’t remind me of the show ### 4/5 — Needs Updates *2025-01-16, version 3.23.0* As a huge lover of Dancing with the Stars, this game needs some serious updates. Daily reward doesn’t work, only can receive texts from one pro, among other little things that are still underdeveloped. The prices to unlock new dances, shoes, or accessories are way to high and there should be more ways to earn gems or just decrease the amount. Update the songs and fix bugs, about time after 4 years especially if viewership in the show already increased drastically. Otherwise, game is super fun, love the concept and gameplay. ### 5/5 — This game crued my boredness. DANIELLA IS THE BEST PRO *2025-01-05, version 3.23.0* DANIELLA IS THE BEST PRO. ### 3/5 — Not getting stars *2024-12-14, version 3.23.0* I am so sick and tired of NOT getting any stars after each practice, I will not waste 50 gems because of so. Fix it ### 3/5 — pray for updatesss *2024-12-10, version 3.23.0* let me start by saying that I love this game, but it is in serious need of updates. It glitches whenever you try to text any of the dancers, and just more improvements all around. Hopefully with the new surge of viewers we can get an update 🤞 ### 4/5 — DWTS(Dancing with the stars). *2024-12-07, version 3.23.0* Dear game, I hope you are doing well, I love this game and look forward for an update. Thanks, (12/7/24). 😀😆😀 ### 4/5 — The Messages *2024-12-03, version 3.23.0* The reason why I’m giving this game four stars is because the messages every time I go to click on them I keep getting Gleb and it freezes ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unfair *2025-07-08, version 3.23.9* It’s unfair when a new week starts and within two days someone is already ahead by 50K votes. Not everyone has money to buy gems to constantly be able to refresh the dress rehearsal and the live dance on weekends. Aldo having to try and save 1200 gems everytime you want to unlock a new dance is ridiculous. Makes it feel like a money based only type of game. Everything extra costs gems and that’s not fair. You should be able to earn shoes, accessories, makeup/hair, etc without having to use gems that take forever to earn. Also there should be more things to interact with. Also not fair that 2nd and 3rd place don’t get anything extra. I think top 3 should get an extra reward not just first place. ### 1/5 — The app is crashing *2025-03-05, version 3.23.0* I’ve played this game since I was a kid. I love it, but the owners haven’t updated it in four years. It is slowly crashing, you can’t connect to Facebook, can’t collect daily rewards or answer the phone it needs to be updated or honestly someone should buy the game and make it work again I love this game I’m sad it’s crashing:( ### 1/5 — Artem *2024-10-01, version 3.23.0* I know you haven’t updated the game in a long time. But Artem recently got arrested for domestic abuse. He should not be on your game that is not right. ### 1/5 — Update *2024-10-01, version 3.23.0* It’s been awhile since this app was updated. Are you guys no longer caring for it so it will not be updated again? ### 1/5 — So Bad *2023-10-23, version 3.23.0* I Was Like WHAT?! That Is So Bad To The Creator Of Dancing With The Stars! ### 1/5 — New dances *2022-03-01, version 3.23.0* So am I gonna be stuck on the same for dances forever , at this point it’s like what’s the point of playing when I keep doing the same thing over and over , everything is super expensive and for my gifts I’m getting dressed that I wnt ever get to wear because I’m doing the same dances over and over , we should get shoes or hairstyles as the gift and things should be cheaper especially when you’re only giving out 3 diamonds at a time ### 1/5 — Scammed old players by not letting them access their saved data! *2022-01-17* Lost everything glad I never paid and now I never will. They use to let you log in and save to Facebook and play with friends and hold data but now when you do they says errors like it isn’t ready yet like it’s in development and to ask to be ask to be a tester to do so or speak to the makers. I was so high up so many outfits and stuff I’ll never get back. Sad part is when you download to play they still tell you to connect to Facebook to play with friends then when you hit it tell you you can’t so not even new players can, yet they’re told to! Why even still ask? So they tell new players to do it and they won’t even let them and old players can’t get their data back that they told them to save to Facebook as that was the only way they let you save your game. The game hasn’t updated in awhile and there is no reason to have taken away the ability to log into Facebook especially when they still ask. I heard they now charge 12$ for unlocking dance moves and stuff after you unlock the first couple! In my Facebook one I earned almost all dances with hard work like it use to be and now I’d have to start over and pay just to play the game without being able to save? Nope! Would never support or trust a developer who does that. They are basically scamming the new and did the old. That’s what it’s all about. They took away everyone’s saved data so they can’t access the stuff the maker wants to charge for all a sudden now, and that’s not fair. What about the people who spend money on their profiles back then? Then probably more p****d off then I am. They all got scammed out of whatever they paid, it’s sad. ### 1/5 — DON’T PLAY THIS GAME UNLESS YOU WANT TO END UP RAGING *2020-09-17* This is truly a frustrating and pushing game. You will get obsessed with it and everything but then it pushes you to spend your hard earned diamonds so much toward the end, that you end up doing it, by accident or not. Usually, the game lets you watch a video for more energy and extra moves, but it completely stopped doing that, so now I am have a harder time with dress rehearsals because sometimes the requirements of the rehearsals are totally unreasonable and unrealistic, and probably requires extra moves to get past them. Once, I tried to watch a video to get extra moves, but the only option literally was to spend 50 diamonds, and I accidentally clicked that and used my hard earned 50 literally just for energy. I really hope this game stops this pushing, so everyone will enjoy this game, because honestly, I am never coming back to this game because of this, unless this gets fixed. I don’t like how this game pushes people to spend money on this game so much. ### 1/5 — Juego *2020-04-10* No me deja iniciar sesión con mi Facebook además de tener que comprar los diferentes tipos de baile. No deberían de costar tantos diamantes. Mi juego estaba guardado y ahora no me deja iniciar sesión. ### 1/5 — the more updates the worst it gets *2020-02-02, version 3.22.0* At first this game was super fun to play but as of recently with some of the new updates it’s becoming trash. I’ve reached out to support but no one ever gets back to me, I’ve tried reaching out on social media and no one still gets back to me at this point I may end up deleting the app. Every time I play it it always stops and says it cannot connect to the internet which is a lie cause my internet works fine. There are so many things WRONG with this app that they need to fix or I will stop playing this game and will delete it off my phone and will never reinstall it again. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The best dance *2026-08-14, version 3.23.9* I am a dancer and I love this game It helps you with dance and mother skills but I wish there was more dance styles ### 5/5 — Love *2026-07-04, version 3.23.9* Love this game but, wish you could level up faster ### 5/5 — Always testing *2026-04-12, version 3.23.9* It tests my brain making me feel better and smarter every time I play it ### 5/5 — 请继续更新！ *2026-01-08, version 3.23.9* 非常希望能继续更新维护这个游戏，我太爱了！现在玩不了好伤心 ### 5/5 — Great *2025-12-07, version 3.23.9* This game is so much fun. Everything is easy and fun. I know many people that play. I highly recommend downloading this game ### 5/5 — Best game ever *2025-12-06, version 3.23.9* If rhythm had a heartbeat and glamour had a pulse, Dancing With the Stars: The Game would be the moment they lock eyes across the dance floor and decide to run away together. This isn’t just a game—it’s a glitter-soaked celebration of movement, personality, and pure joy, wrapped in the iconic spirit of the hit show and delivered straight to your fingertips. From the moment you begin, you’re swept into a dazzling world where style meets strategy. Each performance feels like an event: the music swells, the stage lights shimmer, and suddenly you’re choreographing the kind of routines that would make even the judges gasp (yes, that gasp). The controls are smooth, the visuals radiant, and the progression system is genuinely addictive—polish your skills, unlock breathtaking costumes, and climb the ranks from beginner to ballroom royalty. What truly makes the experience magical is how alive it feels. Every dance is an opportunity for expression, every character brims with personality, and every victory feels earned. You don’t just play; you perform. And the game rewards that sense of theatricality with flair, fanfare, and an almost cinematic polish that elevates it above typical rhythm titles. Whether you’re a long-time fan of the TV series, a rhythm-game enthusiast, or simply someone who loves to feel the beat, Dancing With the Stars: The Game delivers something rare: an experience that feels both joyful and iconic. It’s the kind of game that reminds you why we love to dance—even if it’s just through a screen. Simply put, this is the most dazzling, delightful, and downright irresistible dance game experience out ### 5/5 — Gurl this is greatttttt *2025-08-23, version 3.23.9* I am a big fan at dancing this games is incredible for puzzle lovers and dance lovers ### 5/5 — It needs more Free Dance moves on It lol *2025-08-09, version 3.23.9* I love this app ### 5/5 — I literally can’t stop playing *2025-07-09, version 3.23.9* It might be a problem now but it’s so good. I love it so much. Sometimes I close my eyes and see the tiles. It’s so fun and it doesn’t feel like a money grab. You can personalize your dancer, change her outfit, shoes, hair, makeup. You get multiple gifts daily, earn diamonds at a reasonable pace, and get good rewards for playing. I absolutely love this game!! ### 5/5 — Amazing Game! *2025-06-25, version 3.23.9* The game is one of my faves! But there is one thing that I want the creator to fix, you have to wait forever just to fill up the energy bar, and that’s super annoying and I’m not that patient, so maybe you can make the wait a little less longer so we can get to playing our fave games?! Overall, the game itself is awesome 🤩 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
