Stage 5 — the whole yellow face
Twist the last corners
Goal: The entire top face yellow.
Every remaining corner needs twisting into place. The sequence R U R' U R U2 R' (known as Sune) twists them for you.
Hold the cube so a corner with yellow on its left-hand side sits at the front-left, then run the sequence. Repeat, re-checking each time, until the top is solid yellow.
The cube will look scrambled in the middle of this — that is normal. Trust the sequence and keep going.

Sune played backwards. It twists the top corners the other way.
Worth knowing
- Never turn the whole cube part way through. Finish the sequence, then look again.
Previous: Stage 4 — the yellow cross
Swipe on the cube to turn the top, bottom, left or right. Swipe the pad sideways to turn the back or front. Two fingers turn the whole cube.
Drag on the cube to turn the top, bottom, left or right, and use the buttons beside it for the front and back. Shift-drag turns the whole cube. Keys 1–6 turn U D L R F B; hold Shift to turn the other way.
