This app is for anyone who wants to solve the 2X2 pocket cube. Just enter in what your cube looks like and the app will solve it. The graphics and the app are simple; all you have to do is follow the instructions. There’s also helpful videos you can watch if you don’t quite understand how to use the app. Matt and Morgan (my kids who are 11 and 9) can show you exactly what to do from start to finish! Hope you give the app a try – and solve that cube!

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Magic Puzzles at 5.0 against Pocket Cube Solver's 2.7. Magic Puzzles also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1). Pocket Cube Solver's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
