Got a cube but no idea where to start? Cubing is a 3D cube app that teaches you the 3×3 cube from scratch. No memorizing up front. You start with what pieces and layers are and how to turn the cube, one step at a time. ■ 8 chapters to your first solve Pieces and layers → controls → white cross → first layer → middle layer → last layer. Try every step on a real 3D cube, and get a hint whenever you're stuck. It doesn't just tell you what to do — it shows you why it works. ■ Master 119 algorithms F2L 41 · OLL 57 · PLL 21. Each case goes through three stages: learn → practice → time. The app spots your weakest group and suggests what to practice today. ■ Timer and rankings Single, Ao5, Ao12, Ao50 and Ao100. The timer starts automatically on your first turn. In the Daily Contest, everyone gets the same scramble — see how you stack up against cubers around the world. ■ Build your cube collection Wood, carbon, crystal, golden, frost… Collect and upgrade 27 different cubes.
