User Reviews

Users praise Ballroom Competition Trainer for versatility and customization across dance styles, easily defined rounds, and BPM-based heats. It automates rounds and music selection with randomization, useful for practice, finals prep, and emcee announcements. The app is reliable and has responsive support. However, drawbacks appear in multiple reviews: it does not work with Apple Music for many users, rounds rely on random song selection with limited manual control and no easy list management, and competition mode lacks real-time song manipulation; plus the interface can feel awkward. Overall, strong capabilities offset by compatibility and control issues.
Pros
  • Very versatile and highly customizable for multiple dance styles and rounds, with predefined dances and options for adding custom routines and BPM-based heats.
  • Automates rounds and music selection (random intervals and random song picks from playlists), useful for practice and competition prep.
  • Reliable and effective for practice and finals prep, with positive feedback on performance.
  • Responsive developer with ongoing support and updates, plus features for practice-focused tasks like emcee announcements and party playlists.
Cons
  • Apple Music compatibility issues: it does not work with Apple Music for many users, limiting usability.
  • Rounds rely on random song selection with limited manual control and no easy playlist management (no ability to pick specific songs or create multiple lists).
  • Competition mode lacks real-time song manipulation.
  • Interface can feel awkward or not intuitive to program.

The app looks interesting on first blush and also seems to have some interesting features but unfortunately it does not work with Apple Music. You can select songs or select playlists but it will not find compatible music so it just won’t work. This one is a waste of dollars. It might work if you have some other media player or upload music to it but I use Apple Music and iTunes. No luck.

Really great idea but if I can’t use my library I’ve wasted my money. Also could not find a “contact developer” to ask questions.

A *must have* tool for ballroom dancers. Easy to setup, easy to use. Handles all the rounds work for me. Takes all the work out of 10min rounds (other than the dancing of course).
