CueTrack keeps score so you don't have to. Built for pool players who want something better than pen and paper. Six game modes: Straight Pool (14.1), 8-Ball, 9-Ball, 10-Ball, One Pocket, and Bank Pool. Each follows its own scoring rules, foul penalties, and win conditions. Tap to record points, fouls, safeties, scratches, and break-and-runs during a match. The scoring screen works in portrait or landscape and is made for quick input between shots. After a match, you get real stats: head-to-head comparisons, score trajectories, pace breakdowns, top runs, and inning-by-inning tables. Way more detail than a napkin scoresheet. Every match saves with full turn-by-turn history. Scroll back through old games and see what happened shot by shot. Create an account to sync across devices. Works offline too. Matches save locally and sync when you're back online. No ads. No tracking. Light and dark themes. Runs on iPhone and iPad.

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.
