How it works and what the result means

Accuracy is hits divided by attempts. Average target acquisition time includes aiming and clicking. Sensitivity practice changes only the on-screen training cursor, not your system DPI.

Reading the result

The best on-page tradeoff depends on target size and your movement style. One fast round is insufficient to determine a universal ideal sensitivity.

What to check next

Keep mouse DPI, zoom and viewport constant. Fatigue and familiarity can change scores during repeated practice.

Keep the pointer inside the test area. Repeat the same target size and round length when comparing sessions.

Frequently asked questions

Will the suggested feel transfer exactly to my game?

No. The page changes its training cursor, while a game can use different yaw, field of view and raw-input behavior. Validate a choice in the actual game.

How do I start the Sensitivity Finder?

Start a round, click the targets as they appear, and avoid clicking the empty background. Use small-target mode for precision.

Does this tool require a download or an account?

No. Open the interactive tool above in a modern browser. The instructions and explanations are available even with JavaScript disabled; running a test needs JavaScript.

Why can two attempts give different results?

Power settings, background tasks, browser scheduling, operating-system input processing and device settings affect measurements. Compare repeated attempts with identical settings rather than the single highest score.
