AimPool is a billiards shot coach and a 3D billiards game. Photograph your table for a modeled shot plan, learn on the same physics, and play pool, snooker, billiards or carom against the computer. Start with the free built-in sample table to explore the complete planning workflow. When you use your own photo, AimPool asks you to confirm the table corners and review every detected ball before it recommends a shot. PLAN WITH CONTROL • Calibrate the playable table from four corners • Review, move, add, remove, and classify balls • See the recommended shot on a 3D table: the aim line, the contact point, the ball's route and where the cue ball stops • Watch the modeled shot play out, or stand behind the cue for the shooter's view • Pots, banks, kicks and safeties, with power and spin guidance • Keep photo analysis on device FOUR GAMES Pool, snooker, English billiards and carom, each on its own full-size table with its own rules and shot recommendations. LEARN BY PLAYING Lessons for every game, played on the 3D table: aim, pace, spin and position. PLAY A GAME 8-ball, 9-ball, snooker, English billiards or three-cushion in four 3D rooms, against the computer at three levels or two players taking turns on one phone. A referee keeps the rules. APPLE WATCH Keep score of a real match on your wrist, and see the shot your phone recommends on one screen. HONEST MODELING AimPool provides modeled guidance, not a guarantee that a shot will be made. Ball detection proposes editable suggestions, and you confirm every ball before the app plans a shot. AIMPOOL PREMIUM ANNUAL The built-in sample table, Learn (new lessons are paced by chalk) and match scoring on Apple Watch are free.

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.
