This aim trainer gives you four short drills that train the mouse skills shooters rely on: fast flicks to a new target, quick switching between several targets, smooth tracking of a moving one and precise clicks on small targets. Every round reports a score, your accuracy and your average time per target, and keeps a history for each drill in this browser, so you can see whether you are improving. The arena draws at your screen's own refresh rate, and an optional locked pointer with a crosshair makes it feel like a game. It works with a mouse or trackpad on Windows, Mac, ChromeOS and Linux, and with a touch screen on phones and tablets.
How to use the aim trainer
- Choose a drill: Flick, Grid of 3, Tracking or Precision.
- Choose a target size. Start with Medium, and keep the same size when you compare rounds.
- If you play shooters, turn on the locked pointer and set the crosshair speed.
- Press Start or Space. Press Esc to stop a round early.
- When the round ends, read your score and compare it with the chart of earlier rounds.
- Press Full screen for a bigger arena with fewer distractions.
Run each drill three times before you judge your score. Your first round is a warm up, and the chart makes the trend easy to read.
The four drills
| Drill | What happens | What it trains |
|---|---|---|
| Flick | 30 targets, one at a time, each far from the last | Moving to a new target and stopping on it |
| Grid of 3 | Three targets on a 3 by 3 grid for 30 seconds | Speed, rhythm and switching between targets |
| Tracking | One target that changes speed and direction for 30 seconds | Smooth, steady following |
| Precision | 20 small targets that shrink away in under 2 seconds | Fine control and clicking at the right moment |
What your score means
| Readout | How it works | What to aim for |
|---|---|---|
| Score | Targets hit per minute multiplied by your accuracy. In Tracking, the share of time on target out of 100 | Higher than your own last rounds |
| Accuracy | Hits out of all clicks. In Precision, targets that vanish count as misses | Above 90% |
| Time per target | From the moment a target is drawn to your hit | Falling over time without accuracy dropping |
| Misses | Clicks that hit nothing, plus targets that vanished | As few as you can |
Because score multiplies speed by accuracy, spraying clicks does not pay. Two quick misses cost you more than a slightly slower hit.
How to improve your aim
- Pick a sensitivity and keep it. Constant changes reset your muscle memory. Use the mouse sensitivity test to measure your DPI and see your turn distance in centimetres.
- Turn off mouse acceleration. On Windows, untick Enhance pointer precision in Mouse Properties, under Additional mouse settings, so the same hand movement always moves the cursor the same distance.
- Accuracy first. Slow down until you hit above 90%, then speed up a little each session.
- Use your arm for big moves and your wrist and fingers for small ones. Flick uses the arm, Precision uses the fingers.
- Short, regular sessions. Ten to fifteen focused minutes a day does more than a long session once a week.
- Watch your reaction speed too. The reaction time test shows how quickly you respond to what you see, and the cps test how fast you can click.
Pointer lock, crosshair speed and your game
With the locked pointer on, the system cursor disappears and a crosshair follows your movement, scaled by the crosshair speed slider. It still uses your system pointer speed, so it will not match a game's sensitivity exactly. To carry your settings between games, the sensitivity converter in the dpi analyzer keeps the same turn per centimetre of mouse movement in Counter-Strike 2, Valorant, Apex Legends, Overwatch 2, Call of Duty and Fortnite.
Smooth drawing and fair timing
The arena draws one picture per screen refresh, and Drawing at shows the frames per second it achieved. If it shows 60 while your screen should run faster, check the setting with the refresh rate test. Time per target runs from the frame that first shows a target to the moment your click was registered, so a busy page does not count against you. To find out how much delay your mouse and screen add to every click, use the mouse latency tester, and confirm your mouse reports often enough with the polling rate test.
Aim tests for Valorant, CS2 and other shooters
A browser drill trains hand and eye coordination, click timing and mouse control. It does not include recoil, movement, field of view or a 3D view, so treat it as a warm up and a way to measure control rather than a copy of a game. Before a match, two rounds of Flick and one of Tracking cover the moves most shooters use.
What this aim trainer cannot measure
Scores depend on your screen size, the target size and the drill, so compare rounds on the same device and settings. Touch screens reward tapping rather than mouse control, so phone and computer scores are not comparable. The locked pointer needs a computer browser, phones do not offer it. If clicks seem to go missing during play, run the mouse test to check the buttons.
Aim trainer questions
Is an online aim trainer worth using?
Yes, as a warm up and to build mouse control. Ten minutes of clean, accurate clicking before you play loosens your hand and settles your aim. It will not teach map sense or crosshair placement, which only playing the game does.
What is a good score in this aim test?
Scores depend on the drill, the target size and your screen, so the best comparison is with your own past rounds, which the chart keeps. As a rule, keep accuracy above 90% while you raise your score, because speed you cannot control is not useful in a game.
Should I turn on the locked pointer?
If you play shooters, yes. It hides the cursor, shows a crosshair and lets you swing past the edge of the screen, the way a game does. Set the crosshair speed so a sweep across the arena feels like a quick turn in your game.
Can I use this aim test with a controller?
No, it reads a mouse, a trackpad or a touch screen. Controller sticks are not read here. To check a controller's sticks and buttons, use the gamepad tester.
Does the aim trainer save my scores?
Yes, in this browser only. Each drill keeps its last 30 rounds, and nothing is sent anywhere. Clearing your browser's site data, or using a private window, starts the history again.
Why do the targets feel laggy?
Check Drawing at under the arena. If it shows far fewer frames than your screen's refresh rate, close other tabs and programs. A 60 Hz screen, a Bluetooth mouse and battery saver all add delay you can feel.
