Whether you are picking up a 3x3 for the very first time or pushing to break the sub-30-second barrier, WeCubit acts as a personal guide that grows with your speed. Most timers just tell you when you finished. WeCubit reads your solve's unique fingerprint, revealing exactly WHERE you can win or lose precious milliseconds. FOUR TABS. ONE PERFECT FEEDBACK LOOP: • 01. LEARN: Pick your path. Choose between the classic Layer-by-Layer Beginner’s Method (~100 moves, 6-8 algorithms) or master the competitive CFOP (Fridrich) method used by world record holders, featuring 78+ detailed algorithm cards and interactive 3D tutorials. • 02. TRAIN: Build muscle memory. Drill specific OLL, PLL, and F2L cases with an interactive live 3D cube visualization and track per-algorithm personal bests. • 03. SOLVE: Track your "Solve DNA." Our high-precision timer doesn’t just clock your total time—it maps your precise splits from Cross → F2L → OLL → PLL automatically. • 04. IMPROVE: Meet your on-device AI Coach. Powered by Apple Intelligence, the coach analyzes your recent Solve DNA trends to give you instant, hyper-targeted advice (e.g., "Your F2L is eating 52% of your solve time. Focus on your lookahead..."). DEEP, LOCAL STATISTICS Dive into your cubing history with comprehensive session statistics. Instantly track your Personal Bests (PB Single), Average of 5 (ao5), Average of 12 (ao12), Average of 100 (ao100), and stage-by-stage trend lines to watch your times drop over time. 100% PRIVATE & OFFLINE-FIRST We built WeCubit with privacy as a first principle.
