MillionBalls Monthly Mashup May 2024
Welcome to our second monthly update on the latest updates, from the app, our community, and the pool world.
Latest News and Updates
- Early Bird Special: We are working on adding a pro tier with extra features to the app. Everyone who registers before launch will get a special early adopter rate, so encourage all your friends to register now before end of Spring!
- Get Social: Follow us on Instagram and Facebook! While we can’t crown you mayor, we will offer incentives for top member referrals.
Upcoming Features: Experience Points and Achievements
Last month, we added levels to each drill. Based on your feedback, we are tweaking that feature to make it more convenient and flexible. Instead of choosing a level for a practice session, you will earn experience points and unlock achievement badges. And of course with experience points come leaderboards!
If you have ideas on how you’d like these features to work, don’t hesitate to reach out at info@millionballs.app.

Drill of the month
MB04: Money ball in corner is an important shot that can be the difference between finishing out a rack in style and choking on the money ball.
In both 8-ball and 9-ball the money ball often remains where it is racked just below the foot spot and you should be able to pocket it confidently with the cue ball near the side pocket.
