# DANCE MASTERCLASS vs Model Academy

The clearest difference is ads: DANCE MASTERCLASS at none against Model Academy's shown. DANCE MASTERCLASS also leads on ratings volume (290 vs 5). Model Academy's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 78%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DANCE MASTERCLASS sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month and Model Academy sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $29.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Model Academy holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DANCE MASTERCLASS has 290 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 78% of DANCE MASTERCLASS's written reviews are positive against 100% of Model Academy's.

DANCE MASTERCLASS ships an update every 2 months, Model Academy every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
