How to use
- Click the blue pad to start a round. It turns red — wait.
- The moment it turns green, click (or tap) as fast as you can.
- Your reaction time appears in milliseconds. Click the pad to go again — your last 5 attempts are tracked with best and average.
- Clicking while the pad is red voids the round ("Too soon!") — no anticipating.
The average human reaction time to a visual stimulus is around 250 milliseconds. Under 200 ms is excellent; under 150 ms usually means you anticipated the green. Everything runs in your browser — no signup, no data leaves your device.

About This Tool
Introduction
A reaction time test is the classic way to measure how fast your brain and body respond to what you see — and Trencada's free Reaction Time Test turns it into a quick, addictive game. Click the pad to start, wait for red to turn green, then click as fast as you can. Your time appears in milliseconds, and your last five attempts are tracked with best and average scores so you can watch yourself improve. Clicking too early voids the round, so there's no cheating by anticipation. Everything runs entirely in your browser with no signup and no downloads.
How to Use

- Click the pad again for another round — your last 5 attempts, best, and average are tracked automatically.
- Press Reset any time to clear your stats and start fresh.
