Dance formation apps compared
Six tools do the same job: place dancers on a stage, chain formations, time the moves to the music. They do not run on the same devices, and they do not all show their price. Here is what their official pages say, reviewed on October 13, 2026.
| App | Browser | iPhone / iPad | Android | Entry price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Choreoto | Yes, in the browser | Closed beta (TestFlight), announced by the maker | Closed testing, announced by the maker | Free plan; the paid plan’s price is not published on the site |
| ArrangeUs | No. The maker says a web version is “in the works for the future” | Yes, iPhone and iPad (iOS 15 or later) | Yes | Free; ArrangeUs Premium at $2.99 per month, $14.99 for six months or $23.99 per year |
| Choreographic | No. The site offers a sign-up for a web editor beta (“Web Editor Beta Test — Sign up for Early Access”) | Yes, iPhone and iPad (iOS 16.4 or later) | Yes | Free, then a subscription at $3.49 per month or $24.99 per year |
| FORMI | Yes, in the browser | No app: the site links to no app store, and the App Store lists none | No app: the site links to no app store, and Google Play lists none | Free up to 3 performances, then $48 per year (Choreographer plan); Team plan at $20 per month billed yearly |
| FODI | No: the maker’s site links only to the App Store and Google Play | Yes, iPhone and iPad (iOS 18 or later) | Yes | Free, then a subscription from $3 per month |
| Stancz | Yes, on PC and Mac, nothing to install | Yes, on the App Store | Yes, on the Google Play Store | Free up to 3 choreographies, then €3.99/month or €29.99/year |
How to read this table
The sharpest split is not about features, it is about devices. The tools that run in a browser have no installable Android app; the ones with an Android app have no browser version. Stancz is currently the only one in the table to offer both.
In return, Stancz has only two user ratings so far, does not allow real-time co-editing, and does not export to PDF. On those three points, several tools in the table do better — each comparison page says which, and when to prefer them.
