Mouse timing tool

Double Click Speed Test

Double-click the target at a comfortable pace. We measure the gap between the two clicks and show whether this browser recognized the attempt.

Understanding the results

How double-click speed works

1

Two intentional clicks

Click the target twice with a mouse button. The tool measures the time between the two clicks.

2

Browser observation

The browser may treat two clicks as a double-click if they arrive within its recognition window. The tool records what the browser reports.

3

Comfortable rhythm

Test at your own pace. The tool shows what this browser observed, not a universal speed standard.

Recognized vs. not recognized

Recognized — the browser treated this pair of clicks as a double-click. The timing fell within this browser's recognition window on this target.

Not recognized — the browser did not treat this pair of clicks as a double-click. This may reflect the browser's recognition rules or the target's conditions. Try a comfortable, steady rhythm, or adjust your system settings and retest.

System configuration

Adjust double-click speed

Changing double-click speed changes the time window your operating system uses to recognize two intentional clicks. After adjusting, return here and repeat several intentional double-clicks.

Windows

Open Mouse settings, then open the additional mouse settings dialog and use the Double-click speed control. Apply the change, return here, and repeat several intentional double-clicks.

macOS

Open System Settings and search for "double-click speed" to find the relevant accessibility or pointer setting for your macOS version. Change one setting, then return here and retest.

After changing

Return to the test above and try several intentional double-clicks at a comfortable pace to see whether the browser now recognizes your timing.

Changing double-click speed is different from fixing accidental double-clicking.

Changing double-click speed changes the time window used to recognize two intentional clicks. It does not establish why a single press may create unwanted repeated input. If you experience accidental double-clicking, use the accidental double-click test on the home page.

Different purpose

How is this different from accidental double-clicking?

This page measures the speed of your intentional double-clicks. If a single mouse press is registering twice without you intending it, that is a different problem that requires diagnosis, not speed measurement.

Experiencing accidental double-clicking?

Use the Double Click Test on the home page to diagnose whether a single press is producing repeated input. That test and its troubleshooting guide are designed for hardware and software fault diagnosis.

Frequently asked questions

What does double-click speed mean?

It describes the rhythm between two intentional clicks, and often the maximum time window the system still considers a double-click.

Does this page know my operating system's double-click setting?

No. The page only measures browser events on this test target and observes how the browser reports the pair of clicks. It cannot read your system's configuration.

Why was one attempt not recognized?

The rhythm of your two clicks, your operating system, and your browser environment can all affect results. Test multiple times at a comfortable, steady pace; change one system setting and retest if needed.

Can changing double-click speed fix a mouse that clicks twice by itself?

No. Changing double-click speed changes the time window for recognizing two intentional clicks. It does not establish why a single press may create unwanted repeated input. Use the accidental double-click test on the home page.

Is double-click speed the same as CPS?

No. Double-click speed focuses on the interval between a pair of clicks; the CPS test / click speed test counts consecutive clicks over a period.
