If you’ve ever stared at a scrambled Pyraminx in frustration, this app is a lifesaver. It’s not exactly a 'game' in the traditional sense, but as a utility, it’s remarkably efficient. The algorithm it uses is top-tier, consistently providing the shortest possible solution paths. I was impressed by how it handles color entry; the layout is intuitive, and recent updates have added auto-correction for when you accidentally enter impossible color configurations.
The inclusion of haptic feedback on newer iPhones makes the data entry feel much more responsive. While some users have reported bugs with specific camera-based scans in the past, the manual input method is rock solid. It’s a great learning tool, too—by following the step-by-step solutions, you start to recognize the patterns and 'algorithms' used in speed-solving. A must-have for cubers of all levels.

Pyraminx Solver is a dedicated utility designed to help puzzle enthusiasts solve the triangular Pyraminx cube with ease. By entering the current color configuration of your puzzle, the app uses optimized algorithms to calculate the most efficient solution in seconds. Featuring a clean layout, haptic feedback, and support for both iPhone and iPad, it serves as both a helpful tool for beginners and a reference for speed-solvers looking for the most direct paths.
Optimized 'shortest path' algorithms
Manual and auto-correcting color entry
Haptic feedback for a tactile experience
Optimized for iPhone and iPad
Clean, distraction-free user interface
Match the colors on the screen to the faces of your physical Pyraminx. Once all colors are entered, hit 'Solve' to see a step-by-step 3D animation or a list of moves that will return your puzzle to its solved state.
The app doesn't just find a solution; it finds the *optimal* solution. It calculates the minimum number of turns required, which is invaluable for those looking to improve their solving efficiency.
No, this specific app is for the triangular Pyraminx. The developer offers a separate app for 3x3 cubes.
