Last Layer

It is very helpful, has easy to remember, but they aren’t the fastest. You should make an update on a lot of different algs that are a lot faster.

Great App but need some improvements

I’ve been using the app and I love it!
I’ve learned so much!!

A few suggestions I think would be some great enhancements.
Please add the Favorites tabs into the flash cards under Setting -> Card Set Options
This would be great for practicing only chosen patterns rather than the whole list.

Also, have a way to re-order favorites as they are not group like the OLL and PLL does when added to the list.

Another is to freeze OLL PLL FAV tab
Having to scroll all the way up to the top when switching tab is a bit cumbersome.

Add visual notation for beginners.

Nice App

The 2 look PLL miss the 3 corner counter -clockwise. Would be great to be able to write our own algorithm and to switch more easily between OLL and PLL.
I really like the flash card.

Wrong Anti-Sune

Sorry to leave a negative review, but the support site is not available else I would've left a ticket there.

Please note that the Anti-Sune algorithm is backwards. Performing it as written in the app will NOT yield a solved OLL. The correct Anti-Sune is R U2 R' U' R U' R'

Using the Anti-Sune was my first encounter with the app, which sort of left a bad taste in my mouth if I can't trust that the algs are correct. I'm new to cubing so this error caused a good deal of confusion for me. So far, most others seem to be correctly listed.

Please correct this if possible. I'd be happy to update the review upon correction as this is otherwise just the app I was desiring!

Beautiful App.

Well done, you wrote a very sleek app, I must say that I'm really impressed by how everything was put together.

Are you able to add a brief section describing the conventions associated with your notations (so we know, for example, the orientation of the x, y, and z slices)?

Again, wonderful job with this niche app. :)

FAQ

What is Last Layer Classic?

Last Layer Classic is an educational app designed to help speedcubers master the algorithms for solving the last layer of a 3x3x3 cube using the Fridrich method. It focuses on both 2-Look and Full 1-Look last layer patterns.

What learning methods does Last Layer Classic use?

The app utilizes a tried-and-true flashcard method to teach and reinforce the OLL and PLL algorithms. It allows for customizable pattern sets and includes a timer to test knowledge and practice moves.

What specific algorithms does Last Layer Classic cover?

Last Layer Classic covers both 2-Look OLL and PLL moves, as well as Full OLL and PLL patterns. This comprehensive approach aids in mastering the final stages of the CFOP (Fridrich) method.

Can I track my progress with Last Layer Classic?

Yes, the app allows you to save and share your solve times, providing a way to monitor your improvement. You can also favorite patterns you are currently learning.

Does Last Layer Classic support multiple devices?

Yes, Last Layer Classic offers native iPad support and uses CloudKit to sync your favorites and flashcard settings between devices. It is also Dynamic Type enabled for better text resizing.

How much does Last Layer Classic cost?

Last Layer Classic is a paid application, available for $1.99. It does not feature in-app purchases or advertisements.

Is Last Layer Classic suitable for beginners?

While the app focuses on the last layer, it's an excellent tool for those who have already mastered the first half of the F2L Fridrich Method. It simplifies learning the OLL and PLL stages.

How often is Last Layer Classic updated?

The latest version, 3.2, was released on August 7, 2021. While not updated frequently, the core functionality for learning algorithms remains robust.
