## What is SolveTime?

SolveTime is a fast, clean speedcubing timer built for real practice — no ads, no accounts, no clutter, and it works completely offline.

Whether you are chasing a sub-10 3x3 or just learning to solve, SolveTime gives you everything you need to time solves the way competitions do.

WCA-STYLE SCRAMBLES
Get a fresh, notation-correct scramble for every solve. Supports 3x3, 2x2, 4x4, 5x5, Pyraminx and Skewb, with proper move lengths and no redundant turns.

15-SECOND INSPECTION
Turn on official-style inspection with 8s and 12s cues. Go over 15 seconds and you get an automatic +2; over 17 seconds counts as a DNF — exactly like a real solve.

HOLD-TO-START TIMING
Press and hold, wait for green, release to go. Adjustable hold time and the option to hide the running time so you focus on the solve, not the clock.

AVERAGES THAT MATTER
Live ao5 and ao12, plus ao50, ao100, best single, session mean and standard deviation — all calculated with WCA trimming rules. Set +2 or DNF penalties on any solve.

SESSIONS FOR EVERY EVENT
Keep separate sessions per puzzle, review your full solve history with the scramble that produced each time, and delete solves you want to drop.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Every solve stays on your device. No sign-in, no tracking, no network access, and no ads — ever.

TRY IT FREE, THEN OWN IT
SolveTime is free to download, and every feature is open for your first 14 days of practice. When the trial wraps up, a single one-time purchase (SolveTime Unlimited) keeps the timer, your sessions and your averages going for good. No subscription, nothing to renew. Your solves stay saved either way.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.1 — 2026-11-11

• Small improvements to the App Store listing.

### 1.2.0 — 2026-11-09

SolveTime is now available in Japanese, both the app itself and the App Store listing.

Solve times and WCA notation (+2, DNF, ao5) are unchanged, and so are your solves and sessions.

### 1.1.2 — 2026-11-02

Small update to the App Store images. No changes to your solves or sessions.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-10-30

Sturdier and more accurate.

- Your data is safer: a damaged save file is backed up instead of being replaced, and one bad entry no longer hides your other sessions.
- Timing uses a clock that ignores changes to the device time, and singles now truncate while averages round, as in WCA regulations.
- Session mean skips DNFs and says how many were left out.
- Mark +2 or DNF on the last solve with one tap, right under the time. Tap again to undo.
- Inspection shows +2 and DNF once you pass 15 and 17 seconds.
- Picking another event no longer moves solves out of your current session.
- 2x2 and 4x4 scrambles follow WCA notation more closely.

### 1.1 — 2026-10-23

SolveTime is now a free download.

- Time solves with every feature unlocked for your first 14 days: all six events, inspection, ao5 through ao100 and sessions.
- After the trial, SolveTime Unlimited is a single one-time purchase. No subscription.
- Bought SolveTime 1.0? You keep everything automatically and pay nothing. If it ever asks, tap Restore Purchase in Settings.
- Your sessions, solve history and settings carry over untouched.
