### 1/5 — Certified bruh moment

*2022-07-20*

Since I’m not good at writing paragraphs, I’ll do a list of what’s wrong.
1. Stolen from carykh, at least credit him.
2. Most automatic scrambles are impossible.
3. The colors, white numbers on bright backgrounds does not look good.
Here’s a “list” of the good things about this app.
1. The controls are very nice and intuitive.
Overall, I would not recommend this app, use a website instead.

### 2/5 — Idea stolen from carykh, most random scrambles are impossible.

*2022-06-29*

I wouldn’t have a major problem with this little fun puzzle app if it wasn’t for the fact that the original loopover version had 100% solvable parity states. When two numbers are swapped in this, it’s usually unsolvable unless you do another random shuffle, unlike the original version.
