When viewing dancers side-by-side, put your finger on the big “VS” and drag it up to the dancer you want to vote for – when you start dragging the VS it should change to a checkmark. When you have the checkmark over the video of the dancer you want to vote for release it and your vote will be placed. You can also vote by double-tapping on the video of the dancer you want to vote for. Note: you can vote on “completed” DanceFights to see instant results (completed DanceFights are indicated by a Winner Announced label)!
You can post your challenge to the community, which shows your dance on the “Challenge” feed on the Home screen immediately. You can also send direct challenges to people on and off the app.
As soon as someone accepts your challenge and submits their dance, your DanceFight goes live on the Vote feed on the Home screen.
The more it’s voted on, the more it will appear on other users’ feeds, so make sure you get your friends to support you!
When you tap JOIN, you can challenge the participating dancers or anyone else to a DanceFight to that exact song clip.
After you record yourself, your DanceFight will go live immediately on the Vote feed on the home screen.
There are two ways to get your video live fast!
If there are 2 judges, each judge receives 1/3 of the vote (2/3 total) and the audience has the remaining 1/3 of the vote. If there are 4 judges in a tournament, each judge receives 20% of the vote (80% total) and the audience receives the remaining 20%. IMPORTANT NOTE: Judges’ votes are not counted UNTIL THE VERY END OF EACH ROUND so votes can swing at the end of a round – audience votes are counted as they come in during the round.
✅For quick tournaments, you only get 1 upload for whole tourney so double checks/preview before submitting
😎 Tournaments are about having fun & uplifting each other
⚡️ Use good WIFI if possible when recording and set up your camera in a WELL LIT space
💃🏾 Capture a full body view angle
🎶Be careful using a bluetooth headset or speaker, it may mess with the audio-video sync in the app (because of slight bluetooth delay)
🏆Each round has voting duration of either 24 or 48 hours (depending on the tournament) for judges and fans to vote.
After recording your DanceFight, you will arrive at the “Get Uploaded!” screen. Be sure “Send Direct Challenges” is selected. Tap the “Upload” button. Then tap the “Find Contacts To Challenge” button at the bottom of the screen. This will enable you to share your challenge with friends via your social apps, text or email.
Another simple way to challenge friends who don’t have DanceFight yet is to send them to the App Store to download the app. Once they’ve done that, exchange usernames with each other to send challenges easily within the app.
When your DanceFight is live, you can share it from the “Vote” feed on the Home screen. You can also go into your profile (or anyone else’s), select the DanceFight of interest, and tap the INVITE button under the DanceFight to share the DanceFight with friends via your social apps, text, or email. The more voters you invite, the more likely you are to win!
You can create an invite-only bracket-style tournaments on DanceFight available for dancers who have the iPhone version of the app. Voting is open to all (iPhone and Android) when the tournament goes live. Here’s how to create a tournament:
Your tournament will have a start date, and if enough of the people you’ve invited have joined, the tournament will begin automatically. Everyone records their best dance to the tournament song, and that one video gets matched up automatically (and randomly) throughout the tournament. The dancers with the most votes in each matchup keep advancing until a winner is crowned.
Once you record your video, it will show up in your Activity Feed, which is located on your Profile screen. Turn on Notifications in your Settings to make sure you get the alert that your video is available.
You can also view all of your recordings in your Profile under the “My Dances” tab.
Your friend will receive your challenge within minutes of you sending it to them. If they have notifications enabled, they will receive a notification. A notification will also show up in their Activity Feed at their Profile in the app.
The invitations you send to friends to vote for you are automatically sent out by the app when your DanceFight goes live. We’ve got you covered!
Currently, we only allow the use of pre-licensed music. This ensures that we properly credit and support the amazing music artists present in the app. For now, we also require that all videos must be recorded using the DanceFight app.
It’s really important to Enable Notifications so you can receive alerts when your fights go live or when a winner has been announced for your DanceFights. You will also receive a notification in your Activity Feed showing that your DanceFight is live.
We do not display individual or total vote counts. Our goal is to create a fun environment where participating is way more important than winning or losing. We only show current leaders and winners, rather than showing how many votes each person has received.
You earn stars for your activity in the community like voting, creating or joining DanceFights, and participating in tournaments. In Spring of 2022, stars will allow you to level up, earn badges, receive rewards, and more!!
