Flappy Bird Classic Controls - How to Play (Desktop & Mobile)

Flappy Bird Classic is a simple endless side‑scroll game where you guide a bird through gaps in pipes.

Desktop controls

On desktop, tap the space bar or click the mouse to make the bird flap and rise; release to let it fall and navigate between obstacles.

Mobile controls

On mobile, tap the screen to flap the bird’s wings and keep it aloft, timing each tap to pass through the pipe gaps.

Tips

• Tap lightly and consistently to maintain a steady altitude
• Watch the upcoming pipes and adjust your timing early
• Avoid rapid, multiple taps that can cause the bird to rise too quickly
