Adjust Scroll Sensitivity in Live testing sessions

Fine-tune scrolling behavior when testing on real mobile devices in BrowserStack Live.

When testing on real devices in BrowserStack Live, you might notice inconsistent scrolling when using a mouse or trackpad, such as delayed response, uneven scroll speeds, or imprecise scroll distances. This can make it harder to accurately test features or replicate the user experience.

The Scroll Sensitivity setting lets you adjust how your mouse or trackpad input is interpreted on test devices. Fine-tune this setting for smoother, more consistent scrolling.

This setting does not affect scrolling performed using the click-and-drag gesture.

Supported Devices

The Scroll Sensitivity setting is available only on Android and iOS test devices.

  3. On the Live vertical toolbar, click Settings.
  4. In the Settings prompt, locate the Scroll Sensitivity section and adjust the slider to your desired level.
