Hit Start, then each target as fast as you can.

How fast and accurate is your aim?

Hit the target in the middle to start. Then 30 targets appear one at a time: hit each one as fast as you can. At the end you see your average time per target and your accuracy, the share of your clicks that hit. Pick large, medium or small targets. A share link gives a friend the same 30 targets.

How to play the aim trainer

  1. Pick the size of the targets: large, medium or small.
  2. Hit Start in the middle of the field.
  3. Hit each target as fast as you can. A new one appears at once, 30 in all.
  4. Read your time per target and your accuracy. Press Copy link or Share to send a friend the same board.

The aim trainer needs a mouse, a trackpad or a touch screen. New board gives you 30 new places to aim at.

How the score works

Each hit is timed from the frame that shows its target to the moment your button or finger goes down, on the event clock of the browser. Your score is the average over the 30 targets, in milliseconds: lower is better.

Accuracy is your hits divided by all your clicks in the field. A miss costs no time, but it shows in the accuracy. Each new target appears away from the last one, so it never opens under your pointer.

Tips for better aim

  • Move in one fast motion, then slow down just before the target.
  • Aim for the middle of the target, not its edge.
  • Keep the same mouse speed from game to game, so your hand learns the distances.

Test your reflexes with the reaction time test, or your clicking speed with the CPS test.

Questions

What is a good score?

It depends on the target size and on the device: a mouse, a trackpad and a finger give very different times, and this page keeps no record of other people's scores. For a fair race, send a friend your link: it opens the same board.

Why are small targets slower?

Fitts's law, from 1954, says that the time to point at a target grows with its distance and shrinks as the target gets bigger. Small targets make you slow down at the end of each move.

What counts as a miss?

A click or a tap in the field that does not touch the target. Accuracy is your hits divided by all your clicks in the field. Clicks outside the field do not count.

Does it help with aim in shooter games?

It trains flicks: fast, exact moves of the pointer to a new target. It does not train tracking a moving target or the mouse sensitivity of a 3D game.

Can I play it on a phone?

Yes. Tap the targets with your finger. Pick Large targets for a small screen.

Is the aim trainer unblocked? Does it work on a school Chromebook?

It is a normal web page on lifesim.com with nothing to download, so it runs in Chrome on a Chromebook. Some school filters block every game site, so we can't promise that yours allows it. Once the page is open, the game needs no network.
