Solve your Rubik's cube in a few taps, 100% offline, then learn to solve it yourself. The solver runs right on your phone. No internet, no waiting for a server: scan the cube on a plane, on the subway or anywhere without signal and get the moves in seconds. For big cubes there is also the Pro solver: it asks our online solver too, tuned for 4x4, 5x5 and 6x6, and keeps whichever solution is shorter. SOLVER • Fully offline: 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 5x5 and 6x6 are all solved on your phone • A 3x3 is solved in about 20 moves, as short as our online solver or shorter • Pro solver for 4x4, 5x5 and 6x6: offline and online together, the shorter solution wins (a 5x5 drops from about 100 moves to about 80) • Scan each face with your camera, or paint the colors by hand • Every move is shown on a 3D cube with arrows, one move at a time • Play it at your own speed, or step back when you get lost LEARN • Beginner method in 7 steps: no notation or long algorithms needed • CFOP method: cross, F2L, OLL and PLL • Guides for the 2x2, 4x4, 5x5 and bigger cubes • Finger tricks shown by 3D hands, finger by finger • Cube notation made simple: read moves like R U R' • Pictures you can try in 3D in every lesson PRACTICE • Virtual cube from 2x2 up to 20x20 • A coach that shows your next move, by the beginner method or CFOP • Timer for your real cube, with scrambles, best time and averages of 5 and 12 • 214 patterns to make, from the Superflip to the Checkerboard, 3x3 up to 7x7 • Theme editor to give your cube your own colors In 18 languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Russian, Turkish, Indonesian, Hindi, Bengali, Punjabi, Vietnamese, Thai, Japanese, Korean, Simplified and Traditional Chinese.

About

3x3 AI Cube Solver

Read full description

A 3x3 cube solver that shows its work. Scramble the cube, tap AI Solve, and watch the solution play out move by move. Pause on any step, step forward or back, or reverse the whole thing — so you can follow the method instead of copying a number. Every step is described the way you see the cube, not in notation: "next: green CCW" means turn the green face anticlockwise, so you never have to memorise U, D, F, B, L or R. TWO WAYS TO SEE YOUR CUBE 3D view — turn a face with a tap, drag the background to orbit, or swipe across the middle band for slice moves (M, E and S). 2D map — a flat net of all six faces, with the same gestures and the same moves. BUILT FOR PRACTICE - Step-by-step playback: play, pause, one step forward, one step back. - Undo anything, at any time. - Move counter and a solve timer, in automatic or manual mode. - Local stats: manual and AI solves, total moves, and your recent solves with their move counts and times. - Face buttons that follow the colour you can see, even after a slice move has shifted the centres. - Hold View to bring the cube's centres back home and recentre the camera. THE SMALL THINGS - Works fully offline. No account, no sign-in. - No ads, and no tracking of any kind. - Choose your turn sound and whether the device vibrates; three tick sounds. - Portrait and landscape, iPhone and iPad. Whether you are learning your first method or just want the cube solved without memorising algorithms, this is a solver that teaches while it goes.
