Speedcubing timer apps

The cluster consists of speedcubing timer applications, spanning desktop, web, and browser-extension formats, which generate scrambles, log solve times, and track statistics. The five dated entries before the index occur at 2021-01, 2023-09, 2025-12, 2026-04, and 2026-07, showing a sparse, irregular pattern with a gradual increase toward 2026. CuberDesktop leads traction with 4 stars, while the other dated members have 0 stars. The tools range from minimal timers to feature-rich apps with multi-puzzle achievements.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 9 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
