How to use the gamepad test

Connect a controller, press any button if the browser requires activation, then move every stick and trigger. The display updates from the browser Gamepad API.

Understanding the results

Axis values near zero at rest are expected. Persistent movement outside the selected deadzone can indicate drift, calibration or mapping differences.

What this browser tool can measure

Browser and operating-system mappings vary, and vibration or proprietary controls may not be exposed. This page does not change controller calibration.
