Frequently Asked Questions
How do I test if my mouse buttons are working?
Click each mouse button (left, right, middle, and any side buttons) on the test area above. Each button press will be detected and displayed in real time so you can confirm every button registers correctly.
Why is my scroll wheel not being detected?
Ensure your mouse is properly connected and drivers are up to date. Try scrolling slowly over the test area. Some browser extensions may intercept scroll events. If the issue persists, the scroll wheel mechanism may need cleaning or replacement.
Can I test my mouse DPI and polling rate here?
This test measures mouse movement and click responsiveness. While it shows movement tracking, precise DPI and polling rate measurements require dedicated software from your mouse manufacturer. You can observe tracking smoothness as an indicator of polling rate.
Does this test work with wireless and Bluetooth mice?
Yes, this mouse test works with any mouse connected to your computer, including wired USB, wireless with USB receiver, and Bluetooth mice. All button clicks, scroll events, and movement are detected the same way.
