### 5/5 — Def the best cube timer on the App Store

*2024-03-12*

I’ve literally never left a review for an app before but I feel like more ppl should know about Kyuubi. After chaotimer got taken off the App Store this is hands down the best option. I saw it in a Reddit post a couple years ago and I personally like it more than I did chaotimer.

### 4/5 — It’s good but

*2022-08-19, version 1.0.3*

Where has the clock scrambles gone?

### 4/5 — Pretty good.

*2022-08-15*

Nice simple timer has inspection and stuff. Wish it had more options for what kind of puzzle your solving

### 5/5 — No frills free

*2022-03-28*

You get a scramble and a timer without ads or paying. Great!

There are a couple little bugs, like if you delete a solve it will still show in your best statistics on the right. 
I’d also like to see the scramble larger (an additional space between turns) and perhaps spread more evenly on two lines. 

Overall, I really appreciate this app.

### 4/5 — Timer Reset Bug

*2022-03-10*

Sometimes during my solves, the timer starts again. For example, I’ll be 15 seconds into solving, and it will suddenly start again from 0.00, so my time ends up being about 5 seconds. This has happened to me a few times already, and I know I don’t accidentally touch the screen because that would just stop the timer early. Can this get fixed?

### 5/5 — Very nice timer

*2022-02-13*

Lovey timer, only thing missing is draw scramble on other puzzles, also I can see how that would be pretty difficult

**Developer response:** yes, definitely can do it for the 2x2 but idk if my coding and math skills are good enough for the bigger ones hahah. Thanks for the 5 star though:)

### 5/5 — Best Cubing App (Aside From Chao Timer)

*2022-02-13*

Best cubing app aside from Chao Timer (has been removed from app store though). There are some flaws like lack of customization compared to some other cubing apps, but it gets 5 stars as it is already 3-4 stars and I believe with future updates it will reach that level.

### 4/5 — Very good but……

*2022-01-30*

Pretty good, but scrambles aren’t wca legal tho :/

### 5/5 — Thanks Ethan!

*2022-01-22, version 1.0*

I saw your reddit post and this is just what I needed, it works very well. Thank you for putting in the time to make this

### 4/5 — Some sort of tutorial or tips would help navigate

*2022-01-17*

This app is great and works well. I figured out how to switch between sessions but it took a little while to figure it out. So a few navigation tips would help. Maybe a help section.

**Developer response:** Yes i noticed that the scroll function isn’t easy to figure out. I think i will add a tutorial in the next update. Thank you for the feedback.
