## Description

Cube AR uses augmented reality to guide you through solving a Rubik's Cube. The app auto-detects your cube with the camera, displays helpful arrows overlaid on the real cube, and supports both front and back cameras. It's free to try with core features included.

For a smoother finish, unlock the Pro Move—the final layer fix—via a quick in-app purchase. Note: Not all cubes are detected perfectly, but the app aims to make cube solving quicker and more fun.

## Review summary

Recurring themes across reviews include scanning reliability and lighting sensitivity, paywalls for final steps, long solving times, color/recognition inaccuracies, and occasional bugs. Positive notes are scarce but appear when it works for some users.

### Pros

- Some users report that the app can actually solve the cube when scanning works.
- A few reviewers express personal satisfaction and enjoyment (e.g., 'I love it' and 'amazingly good').
- At least one user notes the app actually produced a solution that made their child happy.

### Cons

- Unreliable scanning and poor color accuracy; frequent failures to scan or recognize the cube.
- In-app payment for the last layer / expensive paywall (e.g., last layer costs $0.99); perceived as money-driven.
- Very slow performance; long time to scan and solve (minutes).
- Requires bright lighting or perfect positioning; inconsistent feedback like 'move to a brighter surface' and 'colors/tracking fail'.
- Bugs and crashes; persistent 'it doesn't work' or 'it gives up and you must start over'.
