Cube Solver

Instant cube solutions and speedcubing tools in one place

Cube Solver is a powerful companion for anyone who owns twisty puzzles, from casual solvers to aspiring speedcubers. Instead of leaving your scrambled cube on a shelf, you simply describe its current state and the app generates a step‑by‑step 3D solution that guides you back to a solved puzzle.

Support is impressively broad: Pocket Cube and Mirror Cube 2x2, Tower Cube, the classic 3x3 Rubik’s Cube, 4x4 Rubik’s Revenge, 5x5 cubes, plus Skewb, Skewb Diamond, Pyraminx and Ivy Cube. The move counts are remarkably efficient too, with, for example, up to 14 moves for a 2x2 and around 27 for a 3x3, which is more than fast enough for practical use and good practice for learning optimal solving techniques.

Beyond simple “rescue my cube” functionality, Cube Solver doubles as a training suite. Random shuffles, an integrated timer and detailed statistics let you track your solve times and improvements, making it suitable for speedcubing practice. Built‑in lessons help complete beginners understand basic methods, notation and strategies, while more advanced users can experiment by creating their own patterns and then learning how to reach them from a solved state.

The 3D visual instructions are clear and easy to follow, even if you are not yet confident with standard cube notation. However, the app’s reliance on an active internet connection to compute solutions is an important limitation; you cannot use the solver offline, which might frustrate frequent travelers or users with limited connectivity.

Overall, Cube Solver offers an excellent mix of solver, tutor and practice toolkit, making it a highly useful addition for anyone serious about mastering twisty puzzles.
