How the clicks per minute test works
Click to start
Your first click starts a 60 second timer.
Click for a full minute
Keep a pace you can hold. The live counter shows your clicks so far.
Get CPM and CPS
Your result shows clicks per minute and the same speed in clicks per second, with a timeline of every second.
Clicks per minute, or CPM, is simply how many clicks you make in one minute. It is used in idle and clicker games, in some accessibility settings, and for comparing endurance. Because a minute is long, CPM rewards a steady pace over a quick burst.
Converting CPM to CPS
Divide clicks per minute by 60 to get clicks per second, or multiply CPS by 60 to get CPM.
| Level | Clicks per minute (CPS) |
|---|---|
| Relaxed clicking | 240–360 (4–6 CPS) |
| Fast regular clicking | 360–480 (6–8 CPS) |
| Practised jitter or butterfly | 480–660 (8–11 CPS) |
| Exceptional | 660+ (11+ CPS) |
Most people click a little slower in a one-minute test than in a short one, because the forearm tires after 15 to 20 seconds. Compare your CPM with your 10 second speed multiplied by 60 to see how much your pace fades.
What is a good clicks per minute score?
Around 400 CPM is a solid score for regular clicking, and anything above 500 is fast. Scores above 700 over a full minute almost always come from butterfly or drag clicking. If you are measuring an auto clicker rather than your own clicking, use the auto clicker test, which compares the real rate with the rate you set.
Results that look automated, with perfectly even timing, are marked and not saved to your top 10.
Tips for a higher CPM
- Pick a pace, not a sprintStart at about 80% of your top speed and hold it for the whole minute.
- Use two fingersButterfly clicking splits the work and lasts longer than one finger.
- Keep the mouse stillAnchor it with your thumb and little finger so your clicks do not drift off the box.
- Rest a minute between runsYour score drops sharply if you go again straight away.
