Turn your phone into a MotionPlay™ body-tracking controller. Simply place your phone securely in front of you, open the MotionPlay™ app and connect it to your console game. Your phone’s camera tracks your body movements in real time, allowing you to control the action using body movements such as aiming, throwing and dancing. The MotionPlay™ app works across all compatible MotionPlay™ games, so there is no need to download a separate mobile app for each title. Use MotionPlay™ with games including: • MotionPlay™ Sports • Dance Party- MotionPlay™ (coming soon) Your phone and gaming device must be connected to the same local Wi-Fi network. NOTHING ELSE NEEDED MotionPlay™ uses the camera and processing power already built into your phone. Your movements become the controller, creating an active and accessible way to play games with friends and family. PRIVACY Body tracking is processed directly on your phone. Camera images are used only to detect your movements and are not recorded, stored or transmitted. IMPORTANT The MotionPlay™ mobile app is a companion controller and does not contain playable games. A compatible MotionPlay™ game and supported gaming device are required.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Motion.Play at none against Dance Ninja's 3. Dance Ninja's advantage is chart position (#189 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
