What is the crowd's opinion of Cube Companion?

From 3.5 billion comments

I use Cube Companion, an app for android (if you're on IOS I can't really help you). It doesn't have all the things that you're currently tracking, but what I love about it is that you can have sessions where you track avg, best time, etc. and also keep all the solves for a more extensive statistics page with overall averages, total solve time, some simple graphs and other fun stuff :)

There are some similar programs for PC as well (can't remember the names rn) which might have more stats, but they all look dull/unfinished so I prefer the app :)

Hi all, I've added the Exponential Moving Average feature. For now I have only kept it as a lifetime EMA for your solves unless you guys think I should also add explicit EMA100, EMA1000,... You can view it under Statistics > Statistics

The update should be available from within a few hours of posting this because Google Play takes a while to distribute the app over all its servers.

Here is the link to the app again: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.qbix.cubecompanion&hl=en

I use Cube Companion. It's great! The only thing you might be missing is an ao100. Also the developer is super-nice, if that matters :)

>I've just been using my phone timer is that standard?

I personally use Cube Companion, but I think PlusTimer is the most popular for android. For IOS I think XYZ timer is the most popular. Lots of people use computer timers like qqTimer or csTimer. There are also downloadable timers like Prisma Timer. The phone timer will work just fine, but it's convenient to have the timer keeping track of stats, averages, scrambles etc.

>I lose out a little cause it takes me a bit to stop the timer. Or start it and grab my cube.

The stop time could be reduced by having a timer that's easier to stop, like tapping anywhere on the screen or the spacebar on a keyboard. But the time between starting the timer and beginning to turn and between solving and stopping the timer is included in the time.

>Also when does the time start? I've been starting the timer and then looking at the cube for the first time but I've seen videos where people get time to plan what they're gonna do.

At official competitions you get 15 seconds of inspection time before starting the solve, so that's a good guideline.

Hope that cleared some things up :)
