Test Gamepad & Controller Inputs Instantly
Hardware issues such as analog stick drift, unresponsive buttons, trigger deadzones, or connection dropouts can impact your gaming experience. Diagnosing controller problems requires real-time feedback for all axes and buttons.
The Gamepad Tester communicates directly with your controller using the HTML5 Gamepad API, giving you immediate visual inspection and hardware data without installing any drivers or third-party software.
Key Features
- Real-Time Button Mapping: Press any button, bumper, or trigger to verify instantaneous actuation and check for missed or sticky inputs.
- Dual Analog Stick & Deadzone Monitor: Inspect left and right joystick coordinates, circularity, centering accuracy, and stick drift.
- Analog Trigger Sensitivity: Test pressure-sensitive triggers (L2/R2, LT/RT) with granular value tracking from 0.0 to 1.0.
- Vibration & Rumble Motor Test: Trigger haptic feedback to verify dual vibration motors are operating at full strength.
- Multi-Controller Support: Connect and switch between multiple gamepads simultaneously.
Common Use Cases
- Stick Drift Diagnosis: Check if an analog stick registers ghost movement when left untouched in the neutral position.
- New Controller Inspection: Verify every button and axis on a freshly purchased controller before the return window expires.
- PC & Browser Compatibility: Confirm that your operating system and browser properly recognize your controller layout.
Plug in or pair your gamepad, then press any button to start testing.
