Solve any 3x3 cube with a clear, visual guide built for beginners and experienced cubers. CubeFlow lets you scan your cube with the camera, enter colors manually in 3D or use the flat net, then follow the full solution move by move. Every step can be viewed as a 3D animation, an illustrated gesture or standard cube notation. WHY CUBEFLOW β€’ Scan all six faces with live color detection β€’ Enter or correct stickers in 3D and flat views β€’ Turn rows and columns to explore the cube yourself β€’ Generate an efficient solution for your exact configuration β€’ Follow each move with smooth 3D animations β€’ Switch between gesture cards and cube notation β€’ Tap any step to inspect it and continue from there β€’ Adjust playback speed to learn at your own pace β€’ Keep the current step synchronized across every guide mode MADE TO BE EASY TO FOLLOW No need to memorize algorithms before you begin. CubeFlow shows which layer to turn, in which direction and how many times. Use the visual gesture guide when notation feels unfamiliar, then switch to letters whenever you want to learn the standard language of cubing. CAMERA OR MANUAL INPUT Frame one face at a time and confirm the detected colors, or build the cube manually. Color limits help prevent invalid configurations, and every captured face can be reviewed before solving. PRACTICE, DON’T JUST WATCH The interactive 3D cube also lets you move lines and columns yourself. Try your own solution, test a sequence or use CubeFlow as a training companion. Camera analysis is performed on your device. CubeFlow keeps the experience focused, fast and easy to understand. Scan. Twist. Solve.
