[h3]Full Task Descriptions[/h3]

[h3]Flicking[/h3]

• Soarclick: Train your click timing skills with 6 targets soaring left and right simultaneously. The more targets you kill, the smaller they become. Score is fixed, awarded per kill, and deducted per miss. Avoid trying to hit every target on screen; prioritize juggling 2-3 at a time. Keep your crosshair in the center of the walls to maximize kills.
  
• Sideclick: Train your under-pressure flicking skills with 4 targets alternating between two walls. Targets spawn in groups and switch walls when the wave is cleared or when 2 seconds have elapsed. Score is fixed, awarded per kill, and deducted per miss. Avoid panicking or spam clicking upon missing; aim for precise shots and switch walls early if needed.
  
• Angelclick: Train your click timing & target reading skills with 5 targets flying along the x & y axes. The more targets you kill, the smaller and more evasive they become. Score is fixed, awarded per kill, and deducted per miss. Avoid spam clicking upon missing; move on to the next target and take shots between their directional changes.
  

[h3]Tracking[/h3]

• Pongtrack: Train your precise tracking skills with targets ping-ponging off walls and changing directions between bounces. 4 health-regenerating targets spawn sequentially, each smaller and faster than the last. Score is awarded per hit, increasing with each target, with no miss penalty. Avoid shakiness; match the target's speed and trajectory.
  
• Lineartrack: Train your precise & reactive tracking skills with targets moving linearly around you. 4 health-regenerating targets spawn sequentially, each thinner and more evasive than the last. Score is awarded per hit, increasing with each target, with no miss penalty. Avoid shakiness; stay smooth and avoid trailing or over-correcting when targets change directions.
  
• Controltrack: Train your precise & reactive tracking skills with targets moving along the x, y, & z axes. 4 health-regenerating targets spawn sequentially, each smaller and more evasive than the last. Score is awarded per hit, increasing with each target, with no miss penalty. Avoid predicting; maintain control by smoothly reacting to movements in real time.
  

[h3]Switching[/h3]

• Levelswitch: Train your target prioritization & switching skills with 5 targets moving level along the x-axis. Score is awarded per kill, with no miss penalty, so hold down shoot the entire time. Avoid waiting for targets to land in your crosshairs; flick to each target and transition smoothly into horizontal tracking. Allow targets to be destroyed before flicking to the next.
  
• Swarmswitch: Train your target prioritization & switching skills with 7 targets swarming along the x, y, & z axes. Score is awarded per kill, with no miss penalty, so hold down shoot the entire time. Avoid switching off targets too early; actively match the target's speed and trajectory to kill them before they change direction.
  
• Bounceswitch: Train your target prioritization & switching skills with 5 bouncing targets. Score is awarded per kill, with no miss penalty, so hold down shoot the entire time. Avoid switching to targets that are falling; focus on switching to targets bouncing to their peak to give enough time to kill them before they hit the ground.

[h3]Universal Sens Finder - Find the right sens for every individual Task![/h3]



We all know there’s no such thing as one "perfect sens". Sensitivity isn’t one size fits all, your optimal sens is both game and Task dependent, on a large variety of factors like target size/speed. Universal Sens Finder finds your optimal sensitivity on a per-Task basis. For example, that means your optimal sens for Gridshot vs Sixshot is likely to be very different!

For any Task, track your performance on different sensitivities to find what sens range you peak at. When enabled, Universal Sens Finder intelligently changes your sensitivity as you play, guiding you towards the sensitivity you consistently perform the best on.

All Aimlabs+ members now have instant access to Universal Sens Finder, which can be used on any Task and any aim category - Flicking, Tracking, and Switching!

If you aren’t a member yet, you can still access our Flick Optimizer for free - to help you find a comfortable sensitivity for Flicking specifically. Both Universal Sens Finder and Flick Optimizer are now accessible in our new Analyze Tab. When using Universal Sens Finder, Aimlabs+ members can also easily keep track of all of their historical sens data in the new Analyze Tab.

[h3]Heatmaps - Reveal your aim strengths & weaknesses![/h3]



Don't know why you keep missing? Heatmaps offer a new way to gain deep insights into how you're actually aiming. With Heatmaps, reveal exactly where you were most and least accurate, all in relation to the target. Pinpoint the precise location and frequency of your hits and misses, to quickly learn about the directional strengths and weaknesses in your aim. Use Heatmaps to visually diagnose over or under Flicking, over-correcting or trailing in Tracking & Switching, and general aim shakiness.

In order to improve, you have to first know where to improve. We are happy to announce that Heatmaps are free, to aid all Aimlabs players in their personal aim improvement! Find them in the Movement Analysis section of the Insights Tab on Results Screens.

[h3]Trends - Dive deep into advanced data & track your long-term progression![/h3]



We heard you. Much like Heatmaps, Trends bring back old Results Screen features from the past that were missed by many, but in a fresh and exciting new way.

With Trends, we’ve reimagined the Advanced Tab that was present on old Results Screens, bringing back advanced data to default Aimlabs Tasks like Time to Kill, Reaction Time, Average Time On, and more. On top of that, we now also support advanced data Trends like Time Per Kill, Targets Killed, Total Shots, etc on all Tasks, not just default Aimlabs Tasks.

Tracking your long-term aim journey helps you see how far you've risen, and how far you can still climb. We've added popout functionality to Trend graphs so you can finally view your long-term progression, with filters for Week, Month, Year, and even All-Time! Every single data point on these graphs can also be clicked, to instantly view the respective Replay.

And that’s not all. We’re also very excited to introduce Average Lines to Trend graphs! With just a glance, you can now easily track your current performance in comparison to your average performance, in any Task, for any metric, over a time period of your choice.

As promised, Trends are free for all Aimlabs players! Find them next to Movement Analysis on the Results Screen.

[h3]Friends Only Leaderboards - Push your Aimlabs friends to new heights![/h3]



Friends Only Leaderboards finally support your Aimlabs friends! In the past, support was limited to Steam friends only. Be sure to add all your friends on Aimlabs to keep track of their performance on your favorite Tasks, and motivate each other to beat each other’s scores!
