CubeSnap solves your cube from two photos. Point the camera at your scrambled cube with the white center facing up. Snap. Flip it over so the yellow center faces up. Snap again. CubeSnap reads all 54 stickers and plays back a step-by-step solution on an interactive 3D cube. WATCH IT, DO NOT DECODE IT Your solution plays as smooth 3D turns with the current move highlighted, adjustable speed, and a second view that tracks every step: a flattened net, or a ring graph that shows how each turn moves the stickers. Step forward and back through each turn until it clicks. NO CUBE? TRY THE DEMO The home screen solves a sample cube the moment you open the app. No account, no setup. GOD'S NUMBER Every scramble can be solved in 20 moves or fewer, a bound nicknamed God's number. The gold badge celebrates when your solution meets it, and Tighten hunts for something even shorter. FREE THROUGH 2026 Every solution is free through December 31, 2026. After that, unlock a solution with a single purchase or go unlimited with CubeSnap Unlimited. Reading your cube is always free. No ads, ever. ON IPHONE AND IPAD One app, both screens. PRIVACY FIRST Your photos are used to read the cube and nothing else. No account required.

Read full descriptionHide full description
Solve My Cube is a local solver for physical 3x3 and 2x2 cubes. Scan the faces with the camera, import photos, or enter stickers manually, then review the detected colors before solving. The app validates the cube state before generating a solution. 3x3 validation includes color counts, centers, pieces, orientation, and parity; 2x2 uses corner-state checks. Solutions run locally on device and are shown as standard move notation with step-by-step playback. Designed for a stuck cube, not speed training: local processing, no ads, no subscription, and clear purchase options after three free successful solves. Features: - 3x3 and 2x2 support. - Guided camera scan with manual review before solving. - Photo import and manual full-entry fallback. - Physical cube-state validation before a solve is generated. - Local 3x3 and 2x2 solvers with standard move notation. - Step-by-step solution playback. - Three free successful solves, then solve-pack credits or Lifetime Unlimited.
