Click Speed Test (CPS Test)

Click the pad as fast as you can. Choose 1, 5, 10 or 30 seconds. The timer starts with your first click; your score is clicks per second.

Click to startClick, tap or press Space.

    About accuracy: your browser, screen and mouse or touch screen add some milliseconds between the real moment and what the page can measure (a 60 Hz screen only redraws every 16.7 ms, and input devices add delay of their own). Your result is not a clinical measurement. It is best used to compare your own results on the same device. Details and sources

    How the click speed test works

    1. Pick the length: 1, 5, 10 or 30 seconds.
    2. Click (or tap, or press Space) on the pad. Your first click starts the timer and counts as click number 1.
    3. Keep clicking until the time is up. Clicks after that are ignored.
    4. You get your CPS (clicks ÷ seconds) and your total clicks. Your best CPS per length is saved in this browser after you finish.
    No average CPS table here. Unlike reaction time, we found no reliable published figures for typical click speed, so we do not show any. If you know a source, email us at info@reactiontimetest.dev.

    Click speed depends on your mouse (some buttons have a built-in delay against double clicks), your technique and your screen. If you also want to see how quickly you react to a signal, try the reaction time test.

    Frequently asked questions

    How is CPS (clicks per second) calculated?

    CPS is the number of clicks divided by the length of the test in seconds. For example 50 clicks in 5 seconds is 50 ÷ 5 = 10.0 CPS. Here the timer starts with your first click, and clicks after the timer ends are ignored.

    What is a good click speed?

    We do not give a “good” score. Many web pages quote typical CPS values, but we could not find a published study behind them, so we leave them out rather than invent a number. Your own results on the same mouse and screen are the useful comparison.

    Why does the test length matter?

    Short tests (1 or 5 seconds) allow a burst of speed, longer tests (10 or 30 seconds) show how well you keep the pace. Your best result is saved per length.

    Does it work on a phone?

    Yes. Tap the pad with one or more fingers. Note that phones and touch screens count taps differently from mice, so do not compare a phone score with a mouse score.

    Can I use the keyboard?

    Yes, Space or Enter on the pad also counts as a click (holding the key down does not).

    Is fast clicking bad for my hand?

    Repeated fast clicking can tire your hand. Take breaks, and stop if you feel pain. If it keeps hurting, ask a health professional.
