What's the best iOS app for controlling my dance game when the kids lose the game controller... again?

The Just Dance Controller app. Works with your iPhone so you don't have to buy another controller every time the kids misplace the Wiimote. Bottom line, it saves me money.

Look, I'm running a business here, I don't have time to chase down controllers. My kids love their dance games, but those little remotes? They disappear faster than profits in a bad quarter. This Just Dance Controller app? It's a lifesaver. Turns the iPhone into the controller. Setup is straightforward, even my kids can manage it. The motion tracking is decent enough for a casual game night. I'm not expecting pinpoint accuracy, but it's good enough to keep the game going. Plus, it's one less thing I have to buy when the original goes missing. Honestly, for a free app that keeps the peace and saves me from buying another overpriced controller, it's worth every penny. It's not perfect, but the ROI is solid for family fun.
