What is a good CPS score?
CPS means clicks per second. Most people average between 5 and 7 CPS with normal clicking. Scores of 8 to 10 are quick, and above 10 usually needs a special technique such as jitter clicking or butterfly clicking. A single click per frame on a 60 Hz screen caps out around 60 CPS, but human fingers and mouse hardware cannot get close to that.
Tips to click faster
Rest your wrist, use a light mouse and click with just the fingertip. Longer tests (30 or 60 seconds) measure stamina and show lower CPS than the 1 or 5 second tests. If you are gaming, a faster click also helps in building and clicker games. To train another skill, check your reaction time or your typing speed.
Frequently asked questions
How is CPS calculated?
CPS is your number of clicks divided by the test length in seconds. For example, 50 clicks in 10 seconds is 5 CPS.
Can I use the space bar or a touch screen?
Yes. You can click with a mouse, tap on a touch screen, or press the space bar or Enter while the box is selected.
Why is my score lower on the 60 second test?
Your hand gets tired, so your speed drops over time. That is normal: shorter tests show peak speed and longer ones show endurance.
Is my best score saved?
It is saved in your browser for each test length, and is never sent to a server.
