CubeLens: Scan. Learn. Solve.
Camera scan + guided solving
Free · In‑App Purchases
Point your camera at your scrambled cube. CubeLens reads every sticker, checks it's a real cube, and talks you through solving it step by step.
Your cube. Your phone. Solved.
CubeLens turns the cube on your desk into a guided lesson. Rotate it in front of the camera: any face, any order, any way up. Each face captures automatically, and CubeLens assembles them into your exact cube, verified to be physically possible before you start.
TRY IT FREE
Scanning, validation, and your first three Beginner solves are free: the classic layer-by-layer method, taught the way humans actually learn it, one narrated move at a time. You end up able to solve it yourself.
ONE UNLOCK, FOREVER
One purchase and it's yours for good:
• Quick solve, unlimited: the computer-optimized answer in around 21 moves instead of the long way round, on every scramble, narrated move by move.
• CFOP: the advanced method speedcubers use. Cross, F2L pairs, then the last layer, with each stage explained.
No ads to remove. No subscription. No pay-per-solve. One price, once.
A GUIDE THAT KEEPS UP WITH YOU
Every move is shown on a 3D cube you can spin, previewed on the exact layer to turn, and spoken aloud in clear studio narration, with four narrators to choose from. Auto-play paces itself to the voice; set the speed from 0.5x to 2x, or step through by hand.
SCANNING THAT ACTUALLY WORKS
• Reads real-world lighting: white-balance locking, glare rejection, and per-face illumination correction.
• Handles non-standard color schemes and rim-style / carbon-fiber cubes, and renders your cube in its true colors.
• Legality checking catches misreads and fixes many of them automatically; if a scan is uncertain, CubeLens asks to re-scan just the sides in question, or fix any sticker with a tap.
• Prefer to type it in? Full manual color entry is there too. The camera is the fast way, never the only way.
• If your cube was reassembled wrong, CubeLens detects that it's physically unsolvable and tells you which kind of piece to fix.
BONUS: SEND IT TO YOUR VISION PRO
With the companion app Cubed on Apple Vision Pro, one scan drops a life-size copy of your cube, in its real colors, into the room in front of you.
No account. No ads. No subscriptions, just one optional one-time unlock. Nothing is sent to a server.

Ratings & Reviews
The Beginner course is now free. Your first three guided solves teach the
classic layer-by-layer method, narrated one move at a time, and you finish
able to solve the cube yourself.
The one-time unlock now covers Quick solve, the computer's answer in around
21 moves, plus the CFOP method speedcubers use. It also lifts the three-solve
limit on Beginner.
Also in this update:
• If you would rather just have the cube solved, the first Beginner solve
offers you that choice once, and never asks again.
• Clearer wording across the scanning and solving screens.
