The world's most popular display testing site is ready.

Forum extra note: I've posted announcements on BlueSky, X.com, Mastodon, and Facebook. The press release will come on Tuesday(...ish) following this post.

Please go ahead and share, if you'd like to help support TestUFO. TestUFO is literally my life's work. I'm pretty proud of how it's progressed from a Notepad++ project compatible with Internet Explorer (Version 1 is at old.testufo.com for use on retro PCs!) as a web revisualization of a 1994 MS-DOS motion test app I created.

Congratulations.
I'm quite liking this update. On android, the ufo feels faster. That must be the proper dpi scaling making it slightly bigger to interger scale. Crt beam indicators don't make it too obvious what they mean. Advanced users (familiar with playing with settings in other tests) should have no issue.

Great to hear. You can tap the TestUFO gear icon for Settings to change the size too! You can still use 1:1 native if you prefer, and make those UFOs tiny. Some screens will go automatically native resolution, but most TestUFO screens will respect your default browser zoom/DPI setting.

On startup, unless you override the size, it will default to bigger than 1:1 native at the main screen on Android and iPhone. Most phones default their browser to 300% their native resolution (Device Pixel Ratio = 3). Otherwise, UFOs will be tiny on those retina resolution 300dpi-500dpi screens! Bigger pixels = faster motion at scaled pixels per second.

Now the user can choose. Make things bigger/smaller, or use integer scaling (square pixels) or add smoothing (bilinear).

I can even embed TestUFO animations on this forum with this forum's still working custom UBBcode [testufo height=360]testname#testargs=blabla[/testufo] which all forum members can use here to embed testufo animations around here. I can configure it to match your native resolution automatically (regardless of zoom/browser setting) -- since display tests often likes native resolution.

As I let users embed TestUFO similarly to a YouTube video (on these forums and elsewhere):
Here's 1x, 2x and 4x native resolution at integer scaling:

- Try zooming your browser
- Try changing OS DPI
- Try resizing this browser window viewing this forum page
- These embeds below successfully stays locked to your native display resolution in most browsers on most OSes.
- This makes TestUFO the most accurate "display-native" embeds. Like a smart image or a smart video that automatically adapts to your resolution & Hz.

The CRT beam test is very(!) impressive.
The split-screen really helps to show people what is meant by motion clarity.
My 180hz LCD and 120hz 3DLP look near CRT levels of clarity.

Hoping we see improvement from 3rd parties soon, I haven't been able to get a flicker/stutter-less experience in games using what's available. So for now only this website is flawless.

Grats, I'd say it's the single most exciting tech since flat monitors came to be, but that's me .
