About

3x3 AI Cube Solver

Read full description

A 3x3 cube solver that shows its work. Scramble the cube, tap AI Solve, and watch the solution play out move by move. Pause on any step, step forward or back, or reverse the whole thing — so you can follow the method instead of copying a number. Every step is described the way you see the cube, not in notation: "next: green CCW" means turn the green face anticlockwise, so you never have to memorise U, D, F, B, L or R. TWO WAYS TO SEE YOUR CUBE 3D view — turn a face with a tap, drag the background to orbit, or swipe across the middle band for slice moves (M, E and S). 2D map — a flat net of all six faces, with the same gestures and the same moves. BUILT FOR PRACTICE - Step-by-step playback: play, pause, one step forward, one step back. - Undo anything, at any time. - Move counter and a solve timer, in automatic or manual mode. - Local stats: manual and AI solves, total moves, and your recent solves with their move counts and times. - Face buttons that follow the colour you can see, even after a slice move has shifted the centres. - Hold View to bring the cube's centres back home and recentre the camera. THE SMALL THINGS - Works fully offline. No account, no sign-in. - No ads, and no tracking of any kind. - Choose your turn sound and whether the device vibrates; three tick sounds. - Portrait and landscape, iPhone and iPad. Whether you are learning your first method or just want the cube solved without memorising algorithms, this is a solver that teaches while it goes.
