Solve My Cube
Read full descriptionHide full description
Solve My Cube turns a scrambled Rubik's Cube into a clear, animated solution you can actually follow — no memorizing algorithms, no confusing notation. Point your camera at each face and the colors are detected for you. Prefer to type it in? Paint the cube net sticker by sticker. Either way, you get a step-by-step 3D walkthrough that shows exactly which face to turn and which way — at your own pace. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Smart camera scan — capture all six faces, colors detected automatically • Manual entry — paint the cube by hand when you'd rather not use the camera • Animated 3D solution — watch every move play out on a rotating cube • Plain-English steps — "Turn the front face counter-clockwise," not just cryptic letters • Move notation too — R, U, F' and more for when you want it • Playback controls — slow down to 0.5×, speed up, step forward/back, or replay • Shuffle & solve — no cube on hand? Scramble a virtual one and watch it solve • Beautiful dark & light themes • Fast, private, and fully on-device FREE. NO ADS. NO ACCOUNT. No sign-ups, no subscriptions, no interruptions — just open it and solve. Whether you're solving your first cube or shaving seconds off your time, Solve My Cube makes every turn make sense.
