No app account or sign-in is required. Recovery of remaining uses depends on restoring your user identifier through Google backup or device transfer. If this identifier is not restored after uninstalling the app, clearing app data, or changing devices, remaining uses may be lost. Purchase history in the same Google Play account alone does not guarantee recovery.

Credits do not expire. These terms apply to the standard edition. Purchasing, local prices and availability depend on the Google Play launch, account and region. Fewer valid routes mean fewer recommendations.

The free allowances below apply to full-layout advice. One-ball advice uses 1 credit from the first result. Reopening an already viewed result for the same layout does not use another credit.

The app and guides are available in 18 languages.

A reference for your practice.

Recommendations are calculated from the layout and settings you enter. Cloth, cushions, balls, cue speed and technique can change the real path. Scoring is not guaranteed.
