# Cube Master vs 3D Cube Solver

The clearest difference is review sentiment: 3D Cube Solver at 100% against Cube Master's 49%. Cube Master's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (435 vs 6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cube Master sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and 3D Cube Solver sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Cube Master holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cube Master has 435 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 49% of Cube Master's written reviews are positive against 100% of 3D Cube Solver's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Cube Master ships an update every 5 days, 3D Cube Solver every 4 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
