Built Ball Chaos for iOS after seeing satisfying bouncing-ball videos - looking for feedback + marketing ideas

Hey Indie Hackers,

About a year ago I kept seeing those satisfying bouncing-ball videos on TikTok and YouTube. They were getting millions of views, and I thought: “What if I try making a channel like that?”

When I started experimenting, I realized how clunky it was to make those videos without the right tools. So instead of only making a channel, I decided to build an app that lets anyone create that kind of content directly on their phone. That’s how Ball Chaos was born 🚀

Fast forward ~1 year:
Ball Chaos is live on iOS, has a growing community, and people are actually using it — we’re seeing some traction and user-generated scenes popping up in the app 🎉

What it does:
Ball Chaos is an iOS app that helps content creators (or anyone who loves satisfying visuals) create bouncing ball / square / race scenes easily. You can:
Make quick, satisfying videos for TikTok, Shorts, or Reels
Create “attention traps” to hook viewers
Experiment with scenes if you’re just starting your channel

Key features:

  • Create and customize scenes of bouncing balls, squares, and races
  • Built-in community with popular charts of user-generated scenes
  • Like, share, and remix content from others

Everything runs on your iPhone - no extra software needed
Basically, it’s a playground for satisfying motion content + a small social layer to help content spread.
I’d love to get feedback on the app itself - what you think, what’s missing, what could be improved - and also ideas on how to market it or grow the community.

If you’ve got:

  • Creative marketing ideas
  • Feedback on the product
  • Experience with launching content tools
  • Interest in collaborating or experimenting
    …I’d love to hear from you.

Thanks for reading! Excited to hear your thoughts and ideas 🙏
