A method for inspecting twist of wire ropes is provided. The wire ropes support an elevator car, and each of the wire ropes includes a plurality of strands. The method is to be implemented by a processor and includes steps of: obtaining, for each of the wire ropes during movement of the elevator car, a number of strand segments that are present within a predetermined length of the wire rope; and comparing the numbers of strand segments that are obtained respectively for the wire ropes for analyzing the twist of the wire ropes, wherein the wire ropes are determined as having equal extent of twist when it is determined that the numbers of strand segments are identical, and the wire ropes are determined as having distinct extent of twist when it is determined that the numbers of strand segments are different from each other.
