Your cube. Your phone. Solved. CubeLens turns the cube on your desk into a guided lesson. Rotate it in front of the camera: any face, any order, any way up. Each face captures automatically, and CubeLens assembles them into your exact cube, verified to be physically possible before you start. EVERYTHING INCLUDED One purchase and all of it is yours: • Beginner course: the classic layer-by-layer method, one narrated move at a time. You end up able to solve it yourself. • Quick solve: the computer-optimized answer in around 21 moves, on every scramble. • CFOP: the method speedcubers use. Cross, F2L pairs, then the last layer, with each stage explained. Pay once. No ads, no subscription, nothing to buy inside the app. A GUIDE THAT KEEPS UP WITH YOU Every move is shown on a 3D cube you can spin, previewed on the exact layer to turn, and spoken aloud in clear studio narration, with four narrators to choose from. Auto-play paces itself to the voice; set the speed from 0.5x to 2x, or step through by hand. SCANNING THAT ACTUALLY WORKS • Reads real-world lighting: white-balance locking, glare rejection, and per-face illumination correction. • Handles non-standard color schemes and rim-style / carbon-fiber cubes, and renders your cube in its true colors. • Legality checking catches misreads and fixes many of them automatically; if a scan is uncertain, CubeLens asks to re-scan just the sides in question, or fix any sticker with a tap. • Prefer to type it in? Full manual color entry is there too. The camera is the fast way, never the only way. • If your cube was reassembled wrong, CubeLens detects that it's physically unsolvable and tells you which kind of piece to fix. BONUS: SEND IT TO YOUR VISION PRO With the companion app Cubed on Apple Vision Pro, one scan drops a life-size copy of your cube, in its real colors, into the room in front of you. No account. No ads. No subscription, and nothing to buy inside the app. Nothing is sent to a server. Voice credits and licenses: https://cubelens.app/credits.html
