Frequently asked questions

What is a good reaction time?

The average is around 250 milliseconds. Under 200 ms is fast; gamers and athletes often reach 150–180 ms.

Why is my time slower on some devices?

Screens, mice and touchscreens add a little delay. Wired mice and high refresh-rate screens give the fastest results.

Why 5 rounds?

One try can be lucky or unlucky. The average of 5 gives a fairer picture of your real speed.

How can I improve my reaction time?

Sleep well, stay hydrated, and practise. Reaction games, sports and staying alert all help a little.
