Gamepad Tester: Stick Drift

Gamepad Tester: Stick Drift is a controller tester and joystick tester for Android. Connect a compatible gamepad by Bluetooth or USB and check stick drift, button presses, analog triggers, vibration, and live controller inputs in one place.

Whether you're troubleshooting a gamepad, checking a second-hand controller before buying, or making sure every button responds, this gamepad testing app gives you clear, real-time feedback.

🎮 GAMEPAD & CONTROLLER TESTER

See connected controllers detected by Android, choose the gamepad you want to inspect, and start testing. View live button input, check the D-pad, shoulder buttons, triggers, and analog sticks. Switch between PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo, and automatic button layouts to match the controller you use.

🕹️ STICK DRIFT TEST & JOYSTICK TESTER

Is your character moving even when you aren't touching the sticks? Use the joystick drift tester to monitor left and right analog sticks in real time.

• Watch the X and Y axis values change as you move each stick.
• Check the center position and spot unwanted stick movement.
• See stick drift indicators, center zones, and deadzone guides.
• Test full analog stick range and view resting peak values.
• Set a new center and run a 5-second rest test.
• Adjust the drift warning threshold in settings.

This stick drift test helps you identify possible joystick drift and inconsistent input. It is a diagnostic tool, not a hardware repair.

✅ BUTTON TEST & LIVE INPUT MONITOR

Test controller buttons as you press them. The interactive gamepad display highlights registered inputs, so you can quickly check face buttons, D-pad directions, bumpers, and other supported controls.

Track button press counts and clicks per second (CPS). See which buttons respond and verify input using familiar PS4/PS5-style, Xbox-style, or Nintendo-style control labels.

🎚️ ANALOG TRIGGER & VIBRATION TEST

Check L2/R2 or LT/RT analog trigger values with live percentage bars and peak readings. Verify that each trigger reaches its full range.

Where Android and your controller expose vibration support, run a rumble test for the left motor, right motor, or both. Adjust the vibration strength to help check feedback.

🧪 BUYER CHECK: TEST BEFORE YOU BUY

Buying or selling a used gamepad? Run a guided controller check that walks through D-pad directions, face buttons, bumpers, sticks, triggers, resting drift, and vibration. Review a simple score and pass/fail result, then save or share the test outcome.

📊 DEVICE INFO, INPUT RATE & EVENT LOG

Go beyond basic button testing with detailed controller diagnostics:

• See controller name, device ID, link information, and supported input ranges.
• Check input-event rate, average event gap, and press rate.
• Review an event log with button events and timestamps.
• Track test history and revisit saved results.

🎨 MAKE YOUR TESTER YOUR OWN

Choose light, dark, or system theme. Enable haptic feedback, display Android keycodes, reset stick center when connecting a pad, and set your preferred drift warning sensitivity.

Looking for a PS4 controller tester, PS5 controller tester, or Xbox controller tester? Pair a compatible gamepad with Android to check the inputs your device recognizes.

Connect your controller to your Android device and start testing in seconds. Support for specific gamepads, input features, and vibration depends on your controller and how Android exposes its controls.

Gamepad Tester: Stick Drift makes controller testing simple, whether you're checking a PlayStation-style controller, Xbox-style gamepad, Nintendo-style controller, or another Android-compatible pad.
