Gamepad Check

Connect a controller and verify buttons, sticks, triggers, deadzone, drift, and vibration with a more complete checklist in real time.

Waiting

Connect a controller

Connect through USB or Bluetooth, keep this page focused, then press any controller button to expose the device to the browser.

How to use this test

Work through the checklist on the page: face buttons, D-pad, bumpers, triggers, stick clicks, sticks, and menu buttons. Use the drift recorder only after leaving both sticks untouched at center.

Troubleshooting

  • If nothing appears, press any button on the controller while the page is open. Many browsers do not expose a gamepad until it becomes active.
  • If vibration is unavailable, your browser or controller may not support the vibration API.
  • Bluetooth controllers often need to be paired at the operating-system level before the browser can read them.
