CubeSolve Scan 3D
Read full descriptionHide full description
CubeSolve Scan 3D helps you solve a real 3Ć3 cube: scan each face, correct colors, then follow step-by-step 3D moves with plain instructions. HOW IT WORKS 1. Scan each of the six faces with the camera (or pick photos). 2. Align the face inside the dotted square ā centers use the standard color scheme so orientation stays consistent. 3. Refine any sticker with the paint editor if auto-detect misses under bad lighting. 4. Review the full cube net, then tap Solve. 5. Follow Singmaster moves (R, U', F2ā¦) with plain-language instructions and a 3D animation that shows exactly which layer to turn and which way. FEATURES ⢠Guided six-face capture with live camera guide ⢠Free camera scan ā no subscription required ⢠Smart color detection with one-tap manual correction ⢠Cube net + 3D preview before solving ⢠Step-by-step solution with progress and move list ⢠Animated 3D cube that replays each turn ⢠Demo cube so you can practice without a physical puzzle ⢠No ads, no account, no tracking TIPS FOR BEST SCANS ⢠Use even lighting; avoid strong glare on stickers ⢠Fill the dotted box with one full face ⢠Keep the correct center color in the middle (white top, yellow bottom, green front, blue back, red right, orange left) ⢠Always review the cube net before computing a solution CubeSolve Scan 3D is built for beginners and casual solvers who want a clear 3Ć3 guide ā not a multi-size game hub or speedcube timer. Note: Solving depends on accurate face colors. Fix stickers in the paint editor if lighting was uneven.
CubeSensei

Learn something from every solve. CubeSensei turns your Bluetooth smart cube into a coach. Every turn is read straight from the cube, so each solve is broken down move by move ā cross, F2L, OLL and PLL ā with recognition and execution timed separately. CONNECT YOUR CUBE Works with GAN, MoYu and X-Man smart cubes over Bluetooth. The app remembers the cube you used last and reconnects to it on its own, so you can pick it up and start turning. SEE WHERE THE TIME GOES ⢠Stage splits for every solve, with recognition vs. execution timing ⢠Automatic case and algorithm detection ⢠Replay any solve, move by move, in 3D ⢠Cross analysis showing the solution you could have used ⢠Visual aids for every stage, plus "take me there" to set your cube to any position FIND YOUR WEAK CASES ⢠Per-case charts for time, frequency and turns per second ⢠Sortable tables that rank your slowest and least consistent cases ⢠Spot the cases that are slow, frequent, or wildly inconsistent TRAIN THE RIGHT THINGS ⢠Training Planner ā a plan built around the cases costing you time ⢠Algorithm Trainer ā drill F2L, OLL and PLL with spaced repetition ⢠Cross Trainer ā practice efficient crosses and compare with the optimal one ⢠Algorithm Library ā the complete F2L, OLL and PLL lists, plus notation ⢠Solve Helper ā step-by-step guidance from any scramble KEEP TURNING Daily and weekly challenges, personal records and statistics that show progress over months, not just today. WORKS OFFLINE Once you are signed in, solving runs on the device. Connect a cube, time a solve and see it broken down with no connection at all. Solves are stored on the device and sync when you are back online; browsing your history needs a connection. A Bluetooth smart cube is required. Every turn CubeSensei times and analyzes is read from the cube, so the timer, the training modes and the analysis need one. Without a cube you can still browse the algorithm library and replay solves you have already recorded. Case charts and statistics are on iPad. Archive, statistics and history-based suggestions need a connection.
