Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Dance 3D! at 3.0 against Just Dance 2016's 2.3. Dance 3D! also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 14.0). Just Dance 2016's advantage is ratings volume (8.1K vs 1) and review sentiment (22% vs 0%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Dance 3D! holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Just Dance 2016 has 8.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Just Dance 2016's written reviews are positive against 0% of Dance 3D!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
