Gamepad tester FAQ
Why doesn't my controller show up?
Most browsers only detect a gamepad after you press a button or move a stick on it, so the page cannot see it just by being plugged in. Chrome, Edge and Firefox all support the Gamepad API; Safari support is limited.
What is stick drift?
Stick drift is when the dot does not sit exactly in the center at rest. A small wobble inside the dashed deadzone circle is normal, but a dot that sits clearly outside it at rest points to a worn stick.
Why doesn't the vibration test do anything?
Vibration support depends on both the controller and the browser. Chrome supports it for many Xbox and PlayStation pads over USB, but Bluetooth support varies and Firefox does not expose it yet.
Can I test more than one controller at once?
Yes. Connect each one and press a button on it, then pick which controller to view from the dropdown menu.
