How fast can you tap? Finger Tap Test is a free app that turns your phone into a simple finger-tapping-speed test. Tap as fast as you can for ten seconds and get your taps per ten seconds, then watch how your speed trends over time. Inspired by the classic finger-tapping test used for almost a century to study fine motor speed, reimagined as a quick, friendly daily check-in. WHAT YOU GET • A clear headline score — your taps in ten seconds • "How are you feeling today?" — once you've checked in a few times, see how today compares to your own usual, not to anyone else • A trend chart of your check-ins over time, by hand • A built-in Learn section explaining the test, the science, and how to read your results PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your tapping data stays on your device. There's no account and nothing to sign up for. JUST FOR FUN AND WELLNESS Finger Tap Test is for general wellness and curiosity. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, or assess any health condition. Your tapping speed naturally varies from day to day with sleep, energy, focus, and caffeine — think of it as a gentle daily check-in, not a test to pass. Free to download — no subscription, no account.

Steadier hands, one short session at a time. Steadyhand is a general wellness app for practicing hand steadiness and fine finger control through simple, satisfying touch exercises — then watching your own progress build over time. ELEVEN QUICK EXERCISES Warm up and challenge your hands with short, focused tasks: • Steady Tap — an even tapping rhythm • Smooth Glide — controlled side-to-side movement • Spiral Trace — follow a curving line, calm and steady • Hold Steady — keep your hand still and relaxed • Target Chase — quick, accurate reaching • Path Trace — stay on a winding ribbon • Keep the Beat — hold a steady tempo • Loop Writer — even, comfortable loops • Quick React — move the moment you see the cue • Pinch Precision — fine two-finger control • Steady Circle — smooth movement around a ring SEE YOUR STEADINESS GROW Every attempt gives you a simple 0–100 steadiness score. Your Progress view charts the trend against your own baseline, celebrates personal bests, and surfaces gentle patterns — like which days felt steadiest. MADE FOR IPAD, GREAT ON IPHONE The tracing exercises — Spiral Trace, Path Trace, and Loop Writer — use the iPad's bigger canvas and are available there. Every other exercise works beautifully on iPhone. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Steadyhand works fully without an account. Your sessions stay on your device. Nothing is uploaded anywhere unless you turn on optional account sync — and nothing is shared until you choose to. A SUMMARY YOU CAN SHARE Export a clean, one-page summary of your practice as a PDF to keep for yourself or share with anyone you like. Steadyhand is a general wellness and self-tracking tool. It does not diagnose, treat, or measure any disease, and is not a substitute for medical care.
