About this ten second click test

This 10 second CPS test is the length most click speed sites use, and the one people mean when they say they got a certain score. You click or tap the blue area for ten seconds, and the clock starts with your first click. At the end you see your clicks per second, written CPS, and, because ten seconds is long enough, how evenly you clicked and how much you slowed down. The test is free, needs no account, and your results stay in this browser.

How to take the ten second test

  1. Press Start. The blue area fills the screen.
  2. Settle your hand. Nothing is timed until you click.
  3. Click or tap at a pace you can hold. Your first click starts the ten seconds.
  4. Read your clicks per second, then open How we measured this to see each second and how much you slowed down.

What is a good ten second score?

No study has measured how fast people click, so there is no average and no rank we can honestly give you. Click-test sites quote ranges for each way of clicking, and we show them as what they are: community ranges, not norms, drawn with a dashed line[1]. The ranges are usually given for short tests, so a ten second run is a little harder to match. The first view of your result sets the run beside what one site says an average person reaches over runs of this kind, 5 to 7 (community range, not a norm)[2] clicks a second[2].

Why ten seconds

Ten seconds is a compromise. It is long enough that one slow click hardly matters, so the number is steadier than a one second run. It is short enough that you can repeat it many times in a few minutes without your hand giving out. It is also the first length at which the page can show how much you slowed down, because it needs a first third and a last third that each hold a good number of clicks.

Nothing about your clicks leaves this browser. The result is kept here so you can see your history, and it never goes into a link. You can read about us to see who makes the site.

Pacing a ten second run

The most common mistake over ten seconds is to start too fast. A hand that sprints in the first two seconds usually pays for it in the last four, and the average ends lower than a steady pace would have given. The seconds one by one show this plainly: a row of big numbers followed by shrinking ones means you went out too hard.

  • Start at a speed you could keep for twice as long, then push in the last three seconds.
  • Keep your wrist loose and let the finger do the work.
  • Look at the number only now and then. Watching it closely makes the hand stiffer.
  • Do three runs and read the best, not the first.

Other names for this test

Many sites call the ten second run the standard click speed test, and some game communities give it a name of their own. Whatever it is called, the rules are the same here: your first click starts the clock, and every click inside ten seconds counts. If you want a shorter or a longer window, the CPS test lets you choose.

Questions

Why is my ten second score lower than my five second score?

Because a hand tires. In a longer run the clicks of the last seconds are slower than those of the first, and they pull the average down. It is normal, and it is why runs should only be compared at the same length.

Does the clock start when I press Start?

No. It starts with your first click on the blue area, and that click counts. You never lose time to a countdown.

What does slowing down mean?

It compares your clicks in the last third of the run with those in the first third. If you clicked a fifth less often at the end, the page says so. A negative figure means you got faster.

Can I use my phone?

Yes. A tap counts like a click. A phone often allows fast taps with two thumbs, but a very short tap may be missed by the screen.
