What this does
This click speed test counts how many times you can click in a set time and shows your clicks per second (CPS) live. Pick 1, 5, 10, 30 or 60 seconds, and switch to spacebar mode to test how fast you can tap the space key instead. Your best score for each mode and time is saved on this device, so you can keep trying to beat it.
How to play
- Choose mouse or spacebar, and a time limit.
- Click the box (or press Space). The timer starts with your first click.
- Keep going until time runs out. Press Esc to start over.
FAQ
What is a good click speed?
Most people click about 6 to 7 times per second. 8 to 10 CPS is fast, and special techniques like jitter clicking or butterfly clicking can reach 12 to 15 CPS or more.
Does holding the spacebar count?
No. Only separate presses count, so the key repeating while you hold it down is ignored.
How can I click faster?
Use a light, responsive mouse, rest your wrist and click with your fingertip rather than your whole hand. Gamers also practise jitter clicking (tensing the arm to vibrate the finger) and butterfly clicking (alternating two fingers).
