Take control of SMS filtering with SMSniper. Create rules for senders, words and phrases, or use regular expressions for more specific matches. Your rules are evaluated on your iPhone before any optional Cloud AI processing. • Filter by sender, message text, or both. • Choose case-sensitive matching or regular expressions. • Allow messages or sort matches into Junk, Promotions and Transactions, with supported subcategories. • Test a sender and message in the app to see how your rules respond. Free includes up to 10 rules. Pro unlocks unlimited rules with a one-time purchase. Pro AI adds optional Cloud AI Filtering and is available through monthly or yearly subscriptions, or a lifetime purchase. Product availability and prices appear in the app. Cloud AI is off by default and requires your consent. Only messages that no local rule matches are sent, with their sender and text, over an encrypted connection to our classification service on Cloudflare’s global network. Processing may take place outside your country. You can turn it off at any time. Automatic classification can make mistakes; review your filtered messages regularly. If Cloud AI cannot return a classification, SMSniper returns no filtering decision. Enable SMSniper in your iPhone’s message filtering settings. iOS determines which messages are eligible for filtering and which categories are available.

Bring your scrambled 3x3 cube into CubeLens and follow a solution one move at a time. Scan a physical cube, enter its colors by hand or explore a virtual cube, then learn with interactive 3D demonstrations. SEE YOUR SCAN TAKE SHAPE Point your camera at three faces and slowly turn the whole cube to show all six sides. Live sticker highlights and a synchronized cube preview show your progress. Keep the layers in place while scanning. Recognition runs on your iPhone; camera frames are never uploaded or saved. FOLLOW EVERY MOVE IN 3D Inspect your cube from different angles, play or pause the solution, and step forward or back at your own pace. The solution carries your cube's orientation through from scanning, and the displayed move notation follows the 3D view. Reset and replay whenever you want to review a step. Solutions are calculated on your iPhone. FILL COLORS OR PLAY Use manual color entry when scanning is inconvenient. Without a physical cube, turn the virtual cube's layers, rotate the view, scramble it and explore a solution. LEARN FROM THE BEGINNING Work through a seven-step layer-by-layer method with illustrated goals, cube positioning, practical checks and 3D demonstrations. Basic knowledge and the first five beginner steps are free; Pro unlocks the final two steps. KEEP ALGORITHMS CLOSE AT HAND Browse six sets: Cross, F2L, OLL, PLL, COLL and CMLL. Search for cases, switch between grid and list views, and use state diagrams to find the pattern you need. Play an algorithm in 3D to understand each move. For cases with alternatives, compare algorithms and pin your preferred one. Every set includes selected free cases; Pro unlocks the complete collection. MADE FOR YOUR IPHONE Use CubeLens without registration or sign-in, in English or Simplified Chinese. Free-use counts stay in local app data and reset when you delete the app. Restore an eligible subscription with the Apple Account used to purchase it. This app is designed for standard 3x3 cubes. FREE EXPERIENCE AND CUBELENS PRO Successful scans and solutions that require moves are counted separately. Once either count reaches two, further scanning or solving requires Pro. Failed or cancelled attempts, zero-move solutions and replays do not count. CubeLens Pro unlocks unlimited scanning, unlimited solving and all lessons and algorithm cases. Choose a weekly, monthly or yearly auto-renewable subscription. The weekly plan includes a 3-day free trial for eligible Apple Accounts, then renews at the displayed weekly price. Eligibility, local prices and renewal terms appear before purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in Apple Subscriptions. Purchases, restoration and subscription verification require a network connection.
