So, I know that there are loads of great speedcubing timers out there, but I’ve always felt that these are half solutions that leave a lot of manual work for the user of the timer to do things like synchronising solves between devices.
As a Computer Scientist and hobbyist speedcuber, I felt that I am in a unique position to offer a solution to this problem.
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been developing a new speedcubing timer that (for now; open to suggestions) I am calling QubeTime. Although QubeTime is in BETA right now and most of the eventual functionality is still missing, I thought I should release it to the public so that I can get feedback as soon as possible.
With that in mind, please send me your suggestions and feel free to contact me using my business email.
The current list of planned features include:
- Multi-device cloud synchronisation
- In-depth solve statistics.
- Import/export to/from all major* speedcubing timers.
- Easy solve sharing with link previews. (Twitter cards, etc…)
- ?? Speedcubing news bulletins ??
- User solve comments.
TL;DR I’m building a new speedcubing timer, it’ll have lots of cool features.
I use an app called Twisty Timer and the only problem I have with it is that I have to manually select a different profile (?) for when I’m practicing PLL and OLL, otherwise it fucks up the statistics.
So can I suggest that, if you put in an OLL/PLL trainer section, that you keep their times separate from the main cube timer?
Also a slow solve / fast solve profile would be nice. I like to cube while I’m watching TV and don’t want those stats in with when I’m actually trying to be quick.
Then it’s just a case of making the UI nice and intuitive so I’m not looking for a guide on how to use the fucking thing.
Good luck, I look forward to seeing what you make
