Suck at cubing? Me too. So I wrote an app to help memorize full CFOP and improve my recognition time. I've gotten a lot better because of it and I hope it can help you too. How do I use it? However you want. I use it daily to learn and drill algorithms. Compare and contrast similar-looking cases. Time my solves in a variety of ways (metronome, casual, semi-blind). And jot down any notes. Why are some of your algorithms slow? That's just the way I learned them and it's hard to unlearn things. Good news though, you can easily change them to your liking or create entire collections. Does your timer use the official WCA scrambler? Not right now. It's a simplified method that is good enough for practice. It basically picks a random face, rotates it a random amount, picks another face, and repeats it 20 times. What is an alias? The solution for a T-Perm is (R U R' U') (R' F R) (R U' R' U') (R U R' F'). Using aliases, that can be shortened to 6 3 8 5. Much easier to memorize. Other cubers think I'm weird, but it works for me.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Cube Timer at monthly against Cuber App's every 5 months. Cube Timer also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.0). Cuber App's advantage is ratings volume (12 vs 1). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Cuber App against 5.0 for Cube Timer. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cuber App has 12 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
Cuber App ships an update every 5 months, Cube Timer monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
