## What is CubeLens?

Your cube. Your phone. Solved.

CubeLens turns the cube on your desk into a guided lesson. Rotate it in front of the camera: any face, any order, any way up. Each face captures automatically, and CubeLens assembles them into your exact cube, verified to be physically possible before you start.

TRY IT — FREE
Scanning, validation, and your first three Quick solves are free: a computer-optimized solution around 21 moves, shown on a 3D cube and narrated move by move. The complete experience, no strings.

ONE UNLOCK, EVERYTHING, FOREVER
One purchase, CubeLens Unlimited, and it's all yours for good:
• Unlimited Quick solves, every scramble, guided move by move.
• Beginner: the classic layer-by-layer method, taught the way humans actually learn it, one narrated move at a time.
• CFOP: the advanced method speedcubers use. Cross, F2L pairs, then the last layer, with each stage explained.
No ads to remove. No subscription. No pay-per-solve. One price, once.

A GUIDE THAT KEEPS UP WITH YOU
Every move is shown on a 3D cube you can spin, previewed on the exact layer to turn, and spoken aloud in clear studio narration, with four narrators to choose from. Auto-play paces itself to the voice; set the speed from 0.5x to 2x, or step through by hand.

SCANNING THAT ACTUALLY WORKS
• Reads real-world lighting: white-balance locking, glare rejection, and per-face illumination correction.
• Handles non-standard color schemes and rim-style / carbon-fiber cubes, and renders your cube in its true colors.
• Legality checking catches misreads and fixes many of them automatically; if a scan is uncertain, CubeLens asks to re-scan just the sides in question, or fix any sticker with a tap.
• Prefer to type it in? Full manual color entry is there too. The camera is the fast way, never the only way.
• If your cube was reassembled wrong, CubeLens detects that it's physically unsolvable and tells you which kind of piece to fix.

BONUS: SEND IT TO YOUR VISION PRO
With the companion app Cubed on Apple Vision Pro, one scan drops a life-size copy of your cube, in its real colors, into the room in front of you.

No account. No ads. No subscriptions, just one optional one-time unlock. Nothing leaves your device.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-08-20

No cube to scan? Tap "Solve a demo cube" on the scanning screen and CubeLens
gives you a scrambled one, a new scramble every time, with the same guided
walkthrough, narration and 3D cube as a real scan. No camera needed.

CubeLens now speaks 22 languages. New this release: Arabic, Danish, Dutch,
Hindi, Indonesian, Malay, Polish, Russian, Swedish, Thai, Traditional Chinese,
Turkish and Vietnamese.

Also in this update:
• A welcome screen now opens the app, explaining what CubeLens does and
  what the single purchase covers — including for anyone updating.
• Guides are narrated in every language, using your device's built-in voice.
• Messages during scanning that had stayed in English are now translated,
  including the first thing the app says to you.
• Entering a cube by hand now tells VoiceOver which face each sticker belongs
  to, instead of announcing six identical grids.
• British English spelling where it belongs, colour, centre, greyed.

### 1.0 — 2026-08-07
