CNS Tap Test is an adaptation of the Finger Tap Test (FTT) or Finger Oscillation Test (FOT) which is used to measure the status of the central nervous system (CNS), and is one of the most commonly used tests in neuropsychology, because of its simplicity and reliability, and because it generates relevant data about fine motor control, which is based on motor speed as well as kinesthetic and visual-motor ability.
The application should be used on a regular basis to determine an athlete’s baseline. If the CNS Tap Test result is elevated it is suitable for a maximum effort or a heavy lifting day. If the CNS Tap Test result is lower than average it may indicate CNS fatigue and impending sickness, injury or over-training.
Both hands should be tested on a regular basis in a consistent environment, typically every morning on waking. The procedure for testing is:
- Rest hand palm down on the heel of the hand on a flat surface
- Tapping is done with the index (pointing finger), and all other fingers remain on the flat surface
- The timer starts with the first tap
- When the timer expires no further taps will be accepted
- The result can either be saved or discarded.
Multiple samples can be saved per day.
The resulting data can be graphed, emailed or managed from within CNS Tap Test.

CNS Tap Test Reviews
If I could return it I would
This app should be free
Export Data with Zero import
I purchased this app due to yiutube reviews. But I just switched iphone and I cannot port my data which can be exported by email. This is a poor user experience.
Easy. Fun.
Great app. Simple and direct to use. One suggestion; would be nice to set parameters on graph to eliminate scores saved in error or results belie a threshold that are obviously unwanted to keep results graph cleaner.
Great app
I use this app first thing after I weigh. The app is a good tool to help give me a bit of insight into how I am feeling with my work out and recovery.
Strange interface, needs refinement
The app is pretty confusing to navigate and I'm not quite sure where I need to go to do stuff. This app looks very plain and isn't very useful.
Works, but not worth buying.
This app works, however it does very little and it is unlikely you will ever use it for even an entire minute. The app's function goes on for only about 10 seconds where you tap the screen. After that the test is over and no longer very useful. You can look at graphs etc. but they hold no function whatsoever for the average or even unusual user. I strongly recommend getting a different free version of this or such, honestly there are so many ways to test this without the app it makes it almost redundant. I've realized now I have spent more time writing this review than using the app.
Incorrect price advertised:-(
My AMEX CC was charged $5.99 instead of the displayed price of $1.99. I've been cheated $4.00!
Works great
Works exactly as advertised. Easy to use.
Excellent tool for testing CNS
This is a really simple and straightforward way to test your Central Nervous System. I use it every day to help decide whether to lift big or take it easy. And the graphing is very helpful for evaluating trends. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
