An online aim trainer with four drills and a miss heat map
This aim trainer is a quick warm-up for mouse, trackpad or touch-screen accuracy. Pick one of four drills — Gridshot, Flick, Tracking or Reflex — set a difficulty and a 15, 30 or 60-second length, and click or tap the targets as fast and as cleanly as you can.
When the timer runs out you get the numbers that matter: accuracy, average time per target, targets per second and a score. Then comes the useful part: a heat map of your misses across the play area, and a small plot of where each miss landed relative to the nearest target. If your misses pile up to the right of targets, you are overshooting horizontal flicks; if they trail behind a moving target, you are reacting rather than predicting.
On a desktop you can tick Lock pointer to hide the cursor and aim with raw mouse movement and an adjustable sensitivity, the way shooters do. Everything runs in your browser; your results stay on your device.
How to use the Aim Trainer
- Choose a drill: Gridshot (three targets on a grid), Flick (one far-away target at a time), Tracking (follow a moving target) or Reflex (pop-up targets that shrink away).
- Pick Easy, Normal or Hard — harder means smaller targets, faster movement or shorter lifetimes — and a length of 15, 30 or 60 seconds.
- Optional on desktop: tick Lock pointer and set the sensitivity. Press Esc at any time to release the pointer; the drill pauses.
- Press Start drill and click or tap targets. In Tracking, keep the cursor on the target — or keep your finger pressed on it on a touch screen.
- Read your result, then study the heat map and the offset plot to see which way you miss. Run the same setup again to beat your best.
Aim Trainer features
Four classic drills
Gridshot trains speed between nearby targets, Flick trains long snaps, Tracking trains smooth following and Reflex trains reaction to surprises.
Honest statistics
Accuracy is hits divided by clicks; average time is measured from a target’s appearance (or your previous hit in Gridshot) to the hit; targets per second is hits ÷ drill length.
Heat map of misses
Missed clicks are drawn as glowing blobs where they landed, with hits as cyan dots, plus a plot of each miss relative to the nearest target centre and a plain-language bias summary.
Pointer lock with sensitivity
On a desktop browser the pointer can be locked to the play area so the system cursor and screen edges never get in the way.
Touch friendly
Targets never get smaller than 44 px across, the play area ignores scrolling gestures while you play, and taps register on touch-down.
Best per setup
Best scores are kept separately for every drill, difficulty and length, with a list of your recent drills — all stored only in this browser.
How each drill is scored
The speed bonus is 100 − (milliseconds ÷ 10), so a hit after 300 ms earns 170 points and anything slower than a second earns the base 100. Because misses cost points, spraying clicks never beats a steady rhythm.
| Drill | Score | Main number to watch |
|---|---|---|
| Gridshot | 100 per hit + up to 100 speed bonus, −25 per miss | Targets per second |
| Flick | Same as Gridshot; each new target is at least a third of the area away | Average time to hit |
| Reflex | Same; targets live 1.6 s (Easy), 1.15 s (Normal) or 0.8 s (Hard) | Expired targets |
| Tracking | 1 point per 10 ms on target | On-target percentage |
Reading the miss heat map
- Misses to one side of targets — a consistent overshoot or undershoot. Slow down the last few centimetres of each movement.
- Misses scattered evenly around targets — the movement is right but the click is rushed. Pause a split second before clicking.
- Misses clustered in one region of the screen — often a wrist or posture limit; try a lower sensitivity or more arm movement.
- Tracking misses behind the target — you are following instead of anticipating. Watch where the target is heading, not where it is.
Getting consistent results
Mouse aim depends on hardware as much as skill. A wired mouse, a high refresh-rate screen and the same sensitivity every session make scores comparable from day to day. Check your display with the refresh rate test, measure raw click speed with the CPS test and pure reaction with the reaction time test. Touch screens and trackpads are perfectly fine for practice, but compare their scores only with themselves.
Aim Trainer FAQ
Is this aim trainer free?
Yes. The aim trainer is free, needs no account or download, and runs in any modern browser on desktop, tablet or phone.
What is a good Gridshot score?
It depends on device and difficulty, so compare with your own history. As a rough guide, about 1.5–2 targets per second at 90%+ accuracy on Normal is solid mouse play.
Why does pointer lock not work?
Pointer lock needs a desktop browser, a mouse and a click to start. Some browsers ask for permission or refuse inside embedded frames; the drill then falls back to the normal cursor and says so.
Does the trainer measure input lag?
No. Times include your display, mouse and browser latency. That is the same for every drill on a given device, so progress is still meaningful.
Can I play with a touch screen?
Yes. Taps register the moment your finger touches the screen. In Tracking, keep your finger pressed on the target and slide it along.
Where are my scores stored?
Best scores per setup, recent drills and your last settings are saved in your browser’s local storage. Clear history removes them; nothing is uploaded.
