Gamepad Tester Online – PS5, PS4, PS3 & Xbox Controllers
Connect your controller and inspect buttons, analog sticks, triggers, drift, raw input, and browser-visible vibration in real time. No download or account required.
Test every browser-visible input, compare L2 and R2 travel, and watch both sticks for center drift.
Verify buttons and axes when your operating system exposes the controller through a compatible USB or Bluetooth driver.
Test Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Series X|S buttons, thumbsticks, triggers, and standard dual-motor vibration.
How to use the gamepad tester
Run a complete controller check in three steps
Use USB first when diagnosing a problem, then compare Bluetooth if your controller supports it. A repeatable result across connections is more useful than one brief input spike.
Connect by USB or Bluetooth
Pair the controller in your operating system or use a data-capable USB cable, then press a face button to wake browser access.
Chrome, Edge, and Firefox recommendedPress every input and move both sticks
Confirm that buttons activate once and release cleanly, triggers travel smoothly, and both stick dots return close to center.
Switch P1-P4 when multiple controllers are connectedRepeat anything that looks wrong
Reconnect the controller, compare USB with wireless, and test another browser before treating a missing input as a hardware failure.

Choose the right setup for your controller
Standard inputs work when the operating system and browser expose the controller. Vendor-specific features may still require the official console or desktop utility.
PS5, PS4, and PS3 controller compatibility
DualSense and DualShock 4 controllers commonly expose standard buttons, sticks, and triggers in modern desktop browsers. DualShock 3 support depends more heavily on the operating-system driver and connection method. Adaptive trigger resistance, light bars, motion sensors, audio, battery status, and pressure-sensitive PS3 face buttons are outside reliable standard browser support.
Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Xbox Series controller support
Xbox controllers usually use the browser's standard mapping, which makes ABXY, the D-pad, bumpers, sticks, LT, and RT straightforward to identify. The Xbox or Share button can be intercepted by the operating system. Rumble availability also varies with controller firmware, driver, browser, and USB or Bluetooth mode.
How to identify stick drift, bad triggers, and stuck buttons
Release both sticks and look for a persistent center offset rather than a single tiny fluctuation. Press each button separately and make sure it returns to zero. Squeeze analog triggers slowly to verify a smooth rise from rest to full press. Repeat an unexpected result after reconnecting before changing settings or opening the controller.
How do I test a PS5, PS4, PS3, or Xbox controller online?
Connect the controller by USB or Bluetooth, open this page in Chrome, Edge, or Firefox, and press a button. The live tester will show every input that the browser exposes through the Gamepad API.
Why is my controller connected but not showing in the gamepad tester?
Press a face button after the page opens, confirm that the controller appears in your operating system, and reload the page. Try a data-capable USB cable and another supported browser if Bluetooth or a driver is hiding the device.
Can this page test PS5 adaptive triggers or PS3 pressure-sensitive buttons?
Not reliably. Standard browser Gamepad API access covers common buttons, sticks, triggers, and sometimes rumble, but model-specific features such as DualSense adaptive resistance and DualShock 3 pressure-sensitive face buttons are not consistently exposed.
Does the online controller test upload my inputs?
No. Controller input is read and processed locally in your browser. No account, download, or controller telemetry upload is required.
Private, instant, and ready without a download
The tester reads Gamepad API values locally. No sign-up or remote controller input stream is required.
