Is there a 7x7 Cube solver online that I can use? My son's friend mixed up his cube and the world has ended. Please Help!!!

Well, I am afriad that online cube solvers are mostly fake, even for 3x3. The easiest way is to :
A. Disassemble the cube. Will take forever if you do not have much experience, but hey.
B. SOLVE IT! If your son is a cuber and even has a 7x7, he should just learn the 7x7. You should take this as a great opportunity. Anyway, it is not like cubes are for collecting dust on shelves and to show off to people- they are for playing! Seriously, just follow a tutorial on youtube and it will be done.
Could I know what cubing experience your son has? I could offer some help. Hope I helped.

Sorry but no; I don't think so. The problem is that there are too many pieces to solve the cube.

You could try to find a tutorial. First you do centres, look up freeslice for the edges, do parity and then solve like a 3x3. (sorry if you have to do some learning but this is the only way to really solve the cube).
Or you could just peel the stickers off
or dissassemble the cube

Great point. I think he explained it well. Do not peel the stickers, since it really ruins them, unless you want to buy new one from thecubicle.us. Disassembly can take long, but if you really cannot solve a cube then try it. But the point of a cube is for it to be played with, so if you bought him a 7x7 he should use it and learn it, because otherwuse, what is the point of even having one?


P.S. Shadowslice, I love your SSC method and I would love to switch to it. I hope you make a detailed outlone of the method and a tutorial on a website or something. I love it. Also, how fast can you be with it? Thanks!

If your son can solve a 4x4 or 5x5, he can just apply the same method he uses for those.

He has little to none. HE likes to look at the finished cube on his shelf. He doesnt like them messed up. He is 7. His buddy messed it up. We use https://rubiks-cube-solver.com/ to solve the small one when something happens, however, I can't find one for the 7x7

It sounds like disassembling it and reassembling sounds like the quickest way. Do you know the brand of the 7x7? Because you could find a YouTube video teaching you how to do this.
 
I get that he is 7 and all, but if he is going to spend money on cubes he should at least learn them. Also, ( just a tip) if he starts learning cubing now and he makes it a full hobby [like, REAL cubing] he could be world class soon. For example, the world record holder, Lucas Etter, started at 8 and now is 14, with a record official solve of 4.90 seconds) . So, if you buy him expensive cubes to just look at them, he should do something with them.
 
Also, why does he have a 7x7 just to look at? I don't get it. He should go gradually from 2x2 or 3x3 to 4x4, 5x5 ( avoid 6x6 , they are all terrible) and then to 7x7. I think he should play with the things he gets and attempt them through guides and tutorials, not just buy a huge cube that costs a lot just to look at. So. I would reccomend buying him a 2x2 as early as possible, learning it ( for him to learn it) and then moving to 3x3 and learning it. The earlier he starts the better it will be for him, and if he starts now, he could be famous and world class. Go on youtube and sear for 'TheSergsB'. That should do it. As for the 7x7, look up a 'how to solve a 7x7' tutorial on YouTube and follow it to solve it. Never give up and don't get bored. It could really build a future for him even.
 
I learned to solve the cube because I didn't like seeing it mixed up. I agree wuth everyone above that your son should take the opportunity to learn. It's really not as difficult as you think.

On a side note, programming a solver for 7x7 is extremely challenging. The shear number of pieces involved means that solving it in an efficient manner will take a very long time go beyond the memory capabilities of most modern computers. The only other option is to use a simpler method to solve a few pieces at a time, but that solution would easily be a thousand moves or more. Good luck following that many moves without making any mistakes. At least if you use a human method, and understand why you're making moves, its easy to notice mistakes as they happen and correct them without wasting time.
