### 2/5 — Works about 30% of the time

*2025-12-27*

Even with proper lighting and framing, the detection of pocketed shots, as an example, is very spotty. You will likely manually tag about half of the shots. The logic applied is only very generously dubbed AI as it does not identify balls sent to the wrong pocket, walking around the table in front of the camera causes issues, other balls (such as in a pile as is typical with drills) break the logic, etc. With a bit of work it has potential, but the AR logic needs a lot of work before it’s a worthwhile investment.

### 3/5 — Cost

*2025-04-06*

I understand I must have taken you a big effort to develop this app, but the subscription price you are asking limits the amount of people willing to pay. Your monthly cost is higher than a movie streaming subscription.

### 2/5 — Really want this to work

*2024-11-27*

When it works, it’s amazing. Unfortunately, I spend most of my time tricking the camera to re-analyze the table. Despite the constant recalibration, it will eventually lose all semblance of position and I have to restart the app and whatever drill I was doing. 

I have gray felt against a dark room. I’ve tried all sorts of angles and positions in the room. I get that some set ups may be tricky, but this shouldn’t be. 

I kept waiting for it to get better but it never did.

### 5/5 — Been a longtime user

*2024-11-08*

I have been using drill room for over two years. It is a fun way to practice and it let’s you focus on the drill by keeping score automatically. It also has outstanding features that analyze your shots and takes videos that you can watch and see what you might want to work on. 
At a annual subscription price less than an hour with a coach.  With new insights feature it tells you what shots you have been missing and should practice to improve. I am not saying it replaces a coach they have trained for years and a great coach is priceless if you like to complete at a tournament level. But most of us just enjoy the game and thrill of winning with friends. This app is perfect i tried it for 3 months before I decided to get an annual subscription. You should too!!! Let me know how you like it

### 1/5 — Great when it works… which is almost never

*2024-10-21*

Image recognition of my table failed several times with both the front and rear cameras of my iPad Mini and my iPad Pro. My pool table is well lit. I have the iPads mounted at over 6 ft with great visibility. I get 4 bars for framing and 5 for lighting.

Taking the first shot sometimes registers. The next shots usually fail with the error, “I can’t see the cue ball.” Many times, shots fail to register entirely, with no feedback at all.

I have uninstalled the app repeatedly, reset my iPads, redownloaded the apps. Stability is still poor.

This is an extremely frustrating app to use. I see the potential but it falls far short.

### 2/5 — Love the idea

*2024-03-26*

I worked with this a couple times over the past year spending a ton of time to try different things to get it working but it just doesn’t. Bought new tripod and moved camera and lighting around. Framing scores are very good but it doesn’t see balls touch other balls or suddenly ends drill thinking you missed for some reason. If tech gets better will be worth it just for BU by itself. Definitely doesn’t work in wagon wheel where you are supposed to carom into a ball- never had it call a success even once. Love the idea. Stream/mirror to my TV so can watch would love to have it work better.

### 3/5 — Erste Eindruck okay

*2024-02-11, version 2.2.6*

Übungen soweit in Ordnung. Die Übersetzung in deutsche ist leider sehr schlecht, teilweise versteht man nicht, was die Übung sein soll.

### 3/5 — Good app

*2023-10-12*

Really nothing like it.  But its not the greatest at seeing the table.   Also would like to have the update notice fixed.  I e-mailed support.  Never heard back.

### 1/5 — Can’t get balls to line up on camera

*2023-06-12*

You’ll spend the whole time trying to get the app to recognize the balls are in position.

### 2/5 — Almost good

*2023-04-14*

Misses 30 percent of the shots. Hard to use in the tripod. Setup difficult. Need voice control options. Great idea. Not there yet.
