## What is Tally?

Stuck on the same move? Loop it, slow it down, and drill it until your body knows it.

Tally counts the beat out loud — "5, 6, 7, 8" — like a teacher would. It keeps every practice in
a journal. And when a take is finally good, you crop it, cover the room and post it without
opening a second app.

LEARN THE DANCE
• Tap where the "1" lands — Tally finds the beat and maps the counts for the whole song
• Loop any 8-count on repeat. It counts you in every time.
• Slow way down — to 25% — without the music sounding weird
• Mirror the video so it matches your side
• Step through move by move, half-count by half-count. Pinch in on the footwork.

KEEP EVERY PRACTICE
• A calendar of what you actually danced, day by day
• Drop a note right on the video — "chest up on 5" pops up on that exact move
• Label by class, style, or routine, and filter to one

EDIT IT WITHOUT LEAVING
• The frame follows you — through spins, floorwork, and a crowded studio
• Crop for TikTok, Reels, or Shorts without the shot jumping around
• Blur or cover everyone who didn't ask to be in your video — you pick who
• Put the clean studio track over your phone audio in one tap
• Quick color fixes and a few effects that don't look like effects
• The whole edit happens where you practiced — nothing to export and re-import

YOUR VIDEOS STAY YOURS
No account. No upload. Nothing leaves your phone. That's why the privacy tools are built in — you
can post your dance without posting your whole class.

In English, 简体中文, 한국어, and Español.

## Frequently asked questions about Tally

### What is Tally?

Tally is a video editor designed specifically for dancers. It automatically tracks dancers, syncs audio, and applies effects, making it easy to create shareable content without learning complex editing software.

### How does Tally's automatic tracking work?

Tally uses AI to find dancers in your video and keeps your chosen dancer centered in the frame, even during fast movements and formation changes. You can select to follow the face, torso, or full body.

### Can Tally sync audio from a studio track?

Yes, Tally can sync your video's audio to a separate studio track with a single tap. It automatically detects the exact offset, eliminating the need for manual waveform adjustments or claps.

### Does Tally have ads?

No, Tally is ad-free. The app is free to use and does not display advertisements to users.

### Is Tally available on Android?

Currently, Tally is only supported on iPhone devices. Future platform expansions may be considered based on user demand and development resources.

### How does Tally ensure user privacy?

Tally processes all video editing tasks, including tracking, syncing, and effects, directly on your device. No videos or personal data are uploaded or stored online, and there is no account or login required.

### What kind of effects does Tally offer?

Tally provides various studio effects, including adjustments for exposure and vibrance, body-shaping tools, and vintage filters like Y2K Glow, Y2K Glitch, and Noir, all controllable with simple sliders.

### How often is Tally updated?

The latest version of Tally is 1.3, and it was last updated on August 4, 2026. Updates typically include performance improvements and new features based on user feedback.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.6 — 2026-08-26

Notes pinned to a moment now appear exactly on that moment — on a trimmed video they could drift a couple of seconds late.

Swipe left or right in the Viewer to move between dances. The top bar stays put while one plays, export screens follow the app's language setting, and Practice's top buttons have room to breathe.

### 1.5.2 — 2026-08-24

Fixes a crash that could happen while editing a video's title.

Panels, drawers and the playback controls now move as one piece instead of arriving a few at a time. While a video plays, its title and labels stay visible at the foot of the screen — tap them to bring the controls back. And a dance's date can be changed from the video screen itself, not only from the Journal.

### 1.5 — 2026-08-23

TAP THE DANCE TO PLAY
The controls step aside while it runs and come back when you pause, so the dance has the screen when you are actually dancing. The step buttons are gone — drag the ruler instead.

SEE A DANCE FULL SCREEN
Check your crop across the whole clip in the editor, on every tool, and export straight from there.

MOVE THE DANCE WHERE YOU WANT IT
Drag or pinch the frame in Practice to put the dancer clear of the count, and tap once to recentre.

ALSO IN THIS RELEASE
The dance no longer changes size when you play or pause it, the Journal opens a video in one piece instead of assembling itself, and the details row on a video says what it does.

### 1.4 — 2026-08-11

PRACTICE A DANCE BY COUNT
Set a clip's 8-count grid, then loop it, slow it down, and step through it with the count called out loud.

NOTES PINNED TO A MOMENT
Tap anywhere on a video to leave a note there. It appears as you watch, right when that move comes around.

FILTER THE JOURNAL BY LABEL
Tap labels to narrow the grid down to one class, one routine, or one style.

ALSO IN THIS RELEASE
The count-in now gives you exactly the beats you asked for, and counts them the way a dancer says them — "5 6 7 8" into a phrase. You can move the big count to any corner from the player itself, and notes drag to the bin without vanishing on the way.

### 1.3 — 2026-08-04

• Your exported video now matches the editor preview exactly — the same crop, tracking, privacy, and effects.
• New: choose who's hidden. Tap any dancer to keep them visible or hide anyone — not just the main dancer.
• Video effects (camera shake, zoom pumps, flashes) now render into your exports.
• The Journal preview reflects your latest edits.
• Reliable exports even with limited photo access, at full original quality.
