Sand Loop is a relaxing sand sort puzzle: a finished sand artwork is sitting in front of you, and your job is to collect every grain of it.

Sand Loop is a sand sort puzzle. Each level starts with a finished sand picture in front of you, and the goal is to collect every grain of it until the board is clear.
The developer presents it as a relaxed game for winding down, and as something you can finish one level at a time, which suits short sessions as well as longer ones.
The build we hold is Sand Loop: Color Sort Puzzle 1.15.0 (APKS split bundle) for Android 8.0 and up.

You tap to release a bucket, and it travels down the conveyor toward the sand. Each color of sand has to end up in the bucket that matches it, so you decide where buckets go before they reach the sand.
The listing says placement is the main puzzle: you work through the artwork color by color, and a level counts as solved when no grains remain on the board.
The developer describes the sand as simulated physics, so grains move and settle according to the rules of the simulation rather than in fixed patterns. Watching the sand fall and collect is the main visual payoff of each level.
The listing also advertises ASMR-style sounds, which play as part of the game's audio and are meant to make each level pleasant to watch.
The developer describes the early levels as easy to pick up. It says the puzzles become genuinely tricky by level 100, so the difficulty climbs over a long run of levels.
Progress is steady: each cleared artwork moves you to the next, and the placement problems get harder as the sand arrangements grow more complex.
