Gyroscope Test

Open this page on your phone and click 'Start Test' on the illustration above. Move your phone on its 3 axes (roll, pitch and yaw: see explanation below) and check that it moves in a corresponding way in the illustration.

The gyroscope inside your phone checks the movements of your phone around its axes (X, Y, Z, or roll, pitch, yaw).

In simpler terms the gyroscope checks for the movements of your phone as it turns around itself, but the center of it stays more or less in place.

This is because of limitations of the 3d software displaying the test: the software cannot fully spin an object around that axis, so we simulated it in other ways, but the result is not fully accurate. If you want to make extra sure that your roll also works well, take a look at the number for Roll under Measurements as it changes while you're rolling your phone.

No, that is handled by your device's accelerometer, which you can test here.
