How the APM test works

  • Pick 10, 30 or 60 seconds. The timer starts with your first action.
  • Every click or tap in the box and every key press on the page counts as one action.
  • Holding a key down counts once, so key repeat does not help.

What is APM?

APM (actions per minute) is how many clicks and key presses a player makes in a minute. It is best known from real-time strategy games such as StarCraft. In-game APM includes quiet moments, so it is far lower than the raw speed measured here.

What is a good APM score?

In this test, under 200 APM is relaxed, 200 to 400 is quick, 400 to 600 is very fast and anything above 600 is exceptional. Short tests give higher numbers, so compare scores of the same length.

Frequently asked questions

Does mouse movement count?

No. Only mouse button presses, taps and key presses count as actions.

What is the difference between APM and EAPM?

APM counts every action. EAPM (effective APM) leaves out useless ones, such as repeated clicks on the same spot; this test measures raw APM.

How can I get a higher APM?

Use both hands at once: click with one hand and press keys with the other, just like in a strategy game.

Can I take the test on a phone?

Yes. Every tap counts and you can use several fingers, although a keyboard and mouse usually score higher.
