How to test your phone motion sensors

Follow these simple steps to run a complete accelerometer and gyroscope test and understand each result.

1

Start the test

Tap "Start sensors" and grant motion permission if prompted. The 3D cube will appear.

2

Tilt your phone

Tilt your phone forward/backward and side to side. Watch the cube respond to your movements.

3

Rotate your phone

Rotate your phone in different directions. The gyroscope data should update smoothly.

4

Check the values

Look at the X, Y, Z values. They should change smoothly as you move your phone.

📱 iPhone sensor test

Works on all iPhones via Safari. Tests both accelerometer and gyroscope sensors.

🤖 Android sensor test

Compatible with Chrome and Samsung Internet. Tests all motion sensors on Android devices.

🌀 Move smoothly

Move your phone in smooth motions for the most accurate sensor response. Jerky movements can cause data spikes.

📊 Check all axes

Test all three axes (X, Y, Z) by moving your phone in different directions to ensure all sensors work.

why it matters

Why run a motion sensor test?

Your phone's motion sensors are essential for gaming, navigation, and screen rotation. A quick check ensures they're working properly.

🌀

Before buying used

Test the motion sensors on a used phone before you pay. Confirm both accelerometer and gyroscope work.

🔧

After a repair

If your phone has been repaired, run a sensor test to ensure the sensors were properly reconnected.

📤

Selling your phone

Share a clean sensor test pass to build trust with potential buyers.

⚠️

Warranty claims

Document sensor issues before filing a warranty claim.

🔄

Software vs hardware

Is your screen not rotating or is it a sensor issue? The test helps you isolate the problem.

📱

Peace of mind

Know your phone sensors work properly for gaming, navigation, and AR apps.

questions

Frequently asked questions about motion sensor testing

A motion sensor test checks your phone's accelerometer and gyroscope by detecting tilt, rotation, and movement. It confirms whether the motion sensors are responding correctly to physical movement.

Open this page and tilt or rotate your phone in different directions. The 3D visualization and sensor values will show real-time data from your accelerometer and gyroscope.

Yes. The tool works on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch through Safari. It uses the DeviceOrientation and DeviceMotion APIs to read sensor data.

Yes. The motion sensor test is completely free, with no signup, no ads, and no data collected.

Look for smooth, responsive movement in the 3D visualization. The sensor values should change smoothly as you tilt and rotate your phone. Any jittery or unresponsive movement may indicate a sensor issue.

An accelerometer measures linear acceleration and tilt (gravity). A gyroscope measures angular velocity and rotation. Together, they provide full motion tracking for apps like games, navigation, and AR.

If your sensors don't respond, check if motion permissions are granted in your browser. Some browsers may require you to tap the screen to enable sensors. If they still don't work, there may be a hardware issue.

Modern browsers require explicit permission to access motion sensors for privacy reasons. This prevents websites from tracking your movements without your consent.
