Listening audio

  • Press Play sound check on the intro screen and raise the volume.
  • Check that the tab is not muted (right-click the tab in Chrome or Edge).
  • If the audio stops, pause and continue the test; the recording carries on from the same point.

Microphone

  • When the browser asks, choose Allow. If you pressed Block, click the lock icon in the address bar, allow the microphone and reload.
  • On the intro screen the bar should move while you speak, and the check should show your words.
  • If the bar moves but no words appear, speak louder and closer to the microphone and check again.
  • Close other apps that use the microphone (Zoom, Teams, Telegram calls).

Slow or lost connection

Your answers are saved as you go and the timer runs on our server, so nothing is lost. Reload the page when the connection returns; the test continues where you were.
