Pool Shots is the fastest way to diagram a pool shot and watch it play out. Drag balls onto the felt and two-finger-swipe to sketch where they travel. Tap Play to animate the whole shot — the cue ball hits the 3, the 3 sends the 7 into the corner, exactly as diagrammed. Chain combos, bank off the rails, add english, and step through it one hit at a time. Save your shots to a library and share any of them as an image, a looping clip, or a .poolshot file that opens right back into the app — ideal for coaches sending a drill or players comparing shots. Pool Shots diagrams shots; it isn't a physics simulator. It's built to capture, remember, and share exactly the shot you have in mind.
