Spacebar Counter Tips
- To measure speed, use a stopwatch for 10 seconds and divide your total presses by 10 to get presses per second. This tool has no built-in timer.
- If one press adds more than one to the count, your key may be double-registering. If a press adds nothing, click on the page first and try again.
- The counter ignores the space bar while you are typing inside a text box or input field.
- The count is not saved. Refreshing or closing the page sets it back to zero.
