Unfortunately, more of the same from the official new CubeStation, non-beta release on ios.

I am on iPhone 7, 13.6.1.

Hi, Maybe you could try to download the new version 2.3.124.

Yep, so the latest version kinda works. It still gets stuck sometimes on the same spot, fetching version from server, but if I kill it and retry, it eventually allows me to log in and use the app.

But...

I usually use the Timer function. After I’ve done a series of timings, I sometimes can’t seem to exit back to the main starting screen. I have to kill the app and reopen it.

2. Said v2.3.121 when I opened app just now, but downloaded some kind of update. Now shows v2.3.123
3. iPhone 7, iOS 14
4. 72581
5. 356 i2

Yes, you described my issues correctly, but let me try it again later today since I’ve just updated to 2.3.123, which seems to be the most current version for me.

So, still seems the same.

Opened app, and wait here for a few minutes:

Seems stuck.

So I quit the app and force it to terminate and try again. Now it almost immediately allows me to log in:

So I connect my 356 i2, reset the cube if necessary, go into the timer, do a solve. Works fine, but then I only have two choices:

View Scores or Challenge Again. Clicking anywhere else does nothing. If I view scores, i can only return here, but not out to main menu.

I think I figured it out. If I choose Challenge again, I can then exit the timer. Not intuitive.

New issue. I had to answer my door while in a solve, so just put down the cube for a minute. Then came back and finished the 3 minute solve, lol. Went into View Scores and deleted that solve. It disappeared from individual solve results, but I still see the big 3 minute solve jump in my Overview graph.

*sigh*

Hello, thanks for your suggestion, already mark it~
Do you have screenshots of your Overview graph?
it is more intuitive when the PM check the feedback records.:)
Many thanks~

Hi, the button of timer exit to the main menu is under the developing~Thanks for your suggestion~
It is possible to send some pictures or videos for question two? It is more intuitive when the PM check the feedback records.

Many thanks~

Sorry, I cleared all data already. And have just been using previous version of CubeStation.

that's ok~It would be highly appreciated if I know why you prefer to choose the previous version rather than the new one?

So, I am trying to use the new version, and applying any update patches pushed through. I’m using it more than the old version, but there are still issues:
• CFOP practice - I would like to select a custom group of OLLs to practice, then randomly cycle through them. As far as I can figure, I can only practice one at a time.
• Solve scrambled cube - old version had a solve mode where my daughter could just watch the app and “solve” the cube by following the directions. I don’t see how to do this on the new CubeStation.
• tried to replicate the previous mentioned issue, where I delete a 2:00 solve from records, but I still see it in the overview graphs. Still happens.
• occasionally, I solve the cube then look up at the app and my solve is not registered and cube seems out of sync. I am not a speed demon, as I’m just a sub 45 solver.
• timer mode in general has a lot of options I don’t understand.

My tablet is asking for password, anyone know the PW? I watched some video's and read this thread a little and no mention of a passkey or password?

Thanks...

Hi Zinzan,
Thanks for your feedback and continued support.
Your suggestion has been noted down and I would communicate with PM.
and it is possible to have some pictures of Q3?
may I know which option of timer Mode you don't understand, I am willing to explain it。

Looking forward to your reply,

Best wishes,
Joann

Hi,

I've just got me Gan 356i v2 today. Just looking at the Algorithm trainer, the only options are LBL or Full CFOP. Is there a way to get the 4LLL algorithms in there? Thanks.

EDIT: Also if anyone want's to send a relative newbie a friend request on the Cube Station app my username is BigDazUK on there too.

We have launched the new version recently-2.3.124.Already Fixed some bugs and add more new functions.
Maybe you could try to download the new version,creat a new account. Could you post a picture of this situation If this still exist. It would be a great help for me to solve this problem.

ps:No.4 means your account ID of the cube station.

Have a nice day.

Hi,This is Joann,
The cube station has launched the new version-2.3.124(add custom Algorithms input function:user could input the algorithm).User could find the new version on app store.
This function is more customized for users ~

Have a nice day ~

No can't see it, isn't it iPhone only? I'm on Android.

Another thing that would be useful is when viewing the solution of previous solves, view them as 4LLL rather than a long OLL and PLL. Thanks

How do I find the account ID?

How do I download the new version when I just used google play and selected cube station, do you have a link or something

Again, you mention nothing of how it asks for password?

Thanks,
