New: Share Your Mouse Test Results With a Link

July 18, 20244 min read

You can now copy a link to your test results and share it anywhere. Compare setups with friends, post to gaming forums, or save your own results across sessions.

What This Feature Does

After you finish a mouse latency test session, you'll now see a "Copy Link" button in your results. Clicking it copies a unique URL that encodes your test data — your average latency, best result, polling rate, jitter readings, and the timestamp. Anyone with that link can open it and see your exact results, displayed in the same format as a live test.

The link doesn't require the recipient to have an account or be logged in. It works like a read-only snapshot of your session. You can also bookmark it for yourself to compare against future tests — useful if you're tracking whether a driver update or USB port change improved your performance.

Why This Is Useful

The most common use case we had in mind: you're in a gaming community or Discord server debating whether a specific mouse is worth it. Instead of describing your numbers in text and hoping people believe you, you paste a link. They can see exactly what your setup produces — the average, the jitter, the polling rate consistency — without any ambiguity.

It's also genuinely useful for hardware troubleshooting. If you're not sure whether something feels off with your mouse, run a couple of tests, share the links in a support forum or with a tech-savvy friend, and get a second set of eyes on the data. Describing "it feels a bit slow sometimes" is vague. A test result showing consistently high jitter spikes is something concrete that someone can actually help you diagnose.

For content creators and reviewers, it's a quick way to embed verifiable data in a video description or article without needing to reproduce the exact test every time.

How to Use It

  1. Run a full test session — click through the full sequence until you see your results summary.
  2. Look for the Copy Link button in the results panel — it's next to the main metrics display.
  3. Click it. The URL is copied to your clipboard automatically.
  4. Paste it anywhere — Discord, Reddit, Twitter, a support ticket, your notes app.

The link is permanent. Your results won't disappear after a set time. Though we do recommend re-testing periodically since your setup can change — driver updates, different USB ports, and even ambient temperature can affect consistency.

A Practical Example: Comparing Two Mice

Let's say you're deciding between two gaming mice and have access to both. Run a full test session with Mouse A, copy the link. Swap to Mouse B, run another session, copy that link. Now you have two permanent snapshots to compare side by side, or share with whoever is helping you decide.

You can do the same for before/after driver updates, before/after switching from USB hub to direct connection, or wireless vs wired mode on the same mouse. The shareable link essentially turns each test session into a data point that you can reference and compare over time — without needing to screenshot your screen or copy numbers by hand.

Privacy Notes

Shared links don't contain any personal information. They encode your performance metrics and timestamp only. We don't associate shared results with user accounts because we don't have user accounts. What you share is exactly what it says on the tin: your mouse test results. Nothing identifiable about you or your system beyond the performance data is included.

If you share a link publicly and later want it to go away: since there's no account system, we can't delete it from your end. If this is a concern, only share in private channels. For the vast majority of use cases — comparing gear with friends, posting in enthusiast communities — this isn't an issue at all.

Run a Test and Share Your Results

Head to the test tool and try it out. The share button appears after your first completed session.
