About this typing speed test
This free typing speed test measures how fast and accurately you type in words per minute (WPM). Normal mode gives you a countdown to type as much as possible. Hard mode challenges you to complete 5 phrases — but one mistake resets the current phrase with a new one.
How it works
Choose Normal or Hard mode, then start typing. In Normal mode, pick a duration and type as fast and accurately as you can. In Hard mode, complete all 5 phrases in 120 seconds — any mistake replaces the current phrase with a new random one.
