About this tool
The Useless Button is exactly what it sounds like: a big red button that does nothing. Press it. Press it again. Every press is counted — yours on your device, and everyone's together in batches.
It is a tribute to the great tradition of pointless websites. Every 10 presses it says something mildly encouraging. Every 1,000 there is confetti. That's it. That's the website.
Who it's for
The purest time waster.
Press it hard.
Endless, harmless fun.
Tips & tricks
