### 1/5 — Difficult to use

*2024-11-05, version 1.31*

It’s hard to understand how to use the app and in the store it shows that you can use it on a Sudoku Rubix Cube and you can not

### 1/5 — does not work!!!

*2024-01-22*

followed all instructions and after entering the last face it told me that the colors were wrong, they weren't. but if they were, where? it does not say so the only option is to start again from scratch, only to have it happen again. also, camera only gets the colors 20% of the time but you HAVE to use it before you can manually enter/change the face colors, why? let us do it right away! feels like a school project and not done by a professional. getting refund.

### 5/5 — 5cube

*2023-10-02*

Worked great, the camera feature didn’t work. But once you had all the colors mapped it worked great. 289 moves later🤔

### 5/5 — The best

*2022-12-27, version 1.31*

It’s the best because it’s great and cheap

### 5/5 — Big good game

*2022-12-03, version 1.31*

It’s so easy to solve Rubik cube 
I love it

### 5/5 — Review

*2022-08-24*

I had my cube scrambled I am not a cubed and this app is cheap an easy to use and I didn’t want to spend hours trying to solve the cube or take it apart and assemble it solved thanks to this app I solved my cube in seconds

### 5/5 — perfect

*2022-05-03*

This helped me solve my first cube so i would recommend getting this app

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work as advertised

*2022-02-18*

The entire interface is just clunky and confusing . The camera function has no idea what color each square is, and after 5 minutes of entering in colors with the cube interface randomly changing sides to enter, the app just lost everything I had entered after I asked it to solve. Angry at this developer. Will be requesting a refund. 😡

### 4/5 — Wow

*2022-01-20*

It works so good but sometimes it takes too many steps for my 3x3 and sometimes when I use camera it gets the wrong color

### 2/5 — Rubbish app overall

*2021-11-28, version 1.31*

I tried this app because I wanted to solve a 5x5 cube but the camera solving feature didn’t work, and also even though I followed the steps perfectly it still didn’t solve it in the end 6 times! Overall I’m disappointed
