ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Rubik's Cube Solver & Tutorial holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rubik's Cube Solver & Tutorial has 3.3K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 52% of Rubik's Cube Solver & Tutorial's written reviews are positive against 100% of Cube's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
