Edge placement

Place the four top edges to finish the cube. The corners are already lined up with the centres: count the edges that are placed. One only, three edges cycle (Ua or Ub, depending on the direction); none, they swap in pairs, across (H) or with their neighbour (Z). These are the Ua, Ub, H and Z perms of the full method.

The basic situations

Hold the cube as the hint says, then apply the formula. In the app, every formula is animated on a virtual cube.
