Flick aim trainer

Snap to each target as cleanly as you can. Thirty shots, one honest number.

Level
How it is measured

A target's clock starts on the image where it is actually drawn. A touch or click uses the time of the event, and a controller is read once per image, so 8.33 ms on average at 60 Hz. Your screen and browser add their own delay, which cannot be seen from here. That is why your scores only compare with your own, on the same device.

Next step

Sensitivity finderFive sensitivities, hidden and shuffled, 20 shots each. Your best one comes from your own numbers, not from a guide.

How to use it

This is the ISO 9241-9 pointing test, the one used in research on game controllers: targets on a circle, three distances, three sizes, mixed at random. Two warm-up shots do not count, then 30 shots set your score.

Your score

Each shot gets a difficulty: ID = log2(distance / size + 1). Divide by the time taken and you get a throughput in bits per second. Your score is the median over the 30 shots. A missed shot leaves the target in place: it costs time and counts as an error, so spraying does not pay.

How to read it

  • Low throughput and few errors: you are too careful, speed up.
  • High throughput and many errors: slow down.
  • Many corrections per target: your first movement stops short or overshoots. The goal is one clean movement.

Inputs

Controller: right or left stick, fire with R2, R1 or the bottom button. Touch: tap the target. Mouse: the pointer is locked to the game on computers, press Escape to leave. A study measured 1.48 bits/s with a stick against 3.78 with a mouse, 60.8% less: never compare inputs, they have separate boards.

What it will not do

This drill trains this movement. No study shows it makes you better in GTA 6, and the only small study on aim trainers helping in a game had 6 players. The score that counts is the one you get 7 days later, without warming up.

Questions and answers

What is a good score?
We do not set one. The score depends on your device, input and screen. Compare yourself with your 7-day average. Percentiles will appear once 300 players have posted with the same input.
Why is there no aim assist?
To measure your own movement. GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 use assisted aiming, but nothing about GTA 6 aiming is confirmed yet. We will check the real menus on 19 November.
Can I use the mouse on my phone?
No. Locking the pointer does not exist on iOS or Chrome for Android. On a phone use touch, or pair a Bluetooth controller and press a button.
Why does a level change my target size?
Levels shrink the targets so you stay in a demanding zone. Your throughput already counts that difficulty, so levels stay comparable. If you are following your plan, two good games raise the level and one bad game lowers it.
My score dropped, is that bad?
Often not. Spacing and mixing drills lower the score of the moment and help retention later. Judge yourself on the test 7 days later.
