Not just another speed test

Measuring how fast you type is easy. Working out what is holding you back, and giving you the exercise that fixes it, is the part that actually makes you faster.

Speed is not the score

Accuracy is weighted 40%, speed 35%, consistency 15%, completion 10%. A player typing 70 WPM at 80% accuracy will not beat one typing 55 WPM at 99%. That single rule shapes every level, game and boss.

Finger guidance from the first key

Every level names the finger, not just the key. In the Key Caves your character will not move until you press it with the right one, so you never build muscle memory for the wrong finger.

It tells you why you are slow

After each mission you get more than an error count: which keys you confuse, which finger is letting you down, and where you hesitate. Practice is then aimed at exactly that.

A fair clock

The timer starts on your first keystroke, never on page load. Slow connections and slow reading do not cost you time.

The world map

Each region trains one part of the keyboard, and ends with a boss that tests it. Clear a world and you take its rank.

Typing questions, answered

What is a good typing speed?

Around 40 WPM is average for an adult using a computer daily. 60–70 WPM is comfortably above average and enough for most office work. Above 90 WPM is fast, and professional transcriptionists work at 110 WPM or more. Speed only counts when accuracy holds: 70 WPM at 80% accuracy produces more mistakes than 55 WPM at 99%, and takes longer overall once corrections are included.

How long does it take to learn touch typing?

Most people can type without looking after 2 to 4 weeks of 15–20 minutes a day. Reaching a speed higher than your old hunt-and-peck speed usually takes 4 to 8 weeks. Your speed drops in the first week — that is expected and unavoidable, because you are replacing a habit rather than improving one.

How is WPM calculated?

A word is defined as five characters, including spaces. WPM is (correct characters ÷ 5) ÷ minutes elapsed. Counting real space-separated words instead would make your score depend on whether the text used long or short words rather than on your typing. Raw WPM uses the same formula over every character you typed, right or wrong.

Is Typometer free?

Yes. All 415 lessons, the typing test, the practice mode and all four typing games are free, with no account required to start. An account only adds saved progress and long-term statistics.

Which finger types which key?

Each hand rests on the home row: left fingers on A, S, D and F, right fingers on J, K, L and semicolon, with both thumbs on the space bar. Every other key belongs to whichever of those eight fingers is nearest, and each finger reaches up and down its own column. F and J have raised bumps so you can find the home row without looking.

Does typing practice actually work?

Yes, but only if it corrects technique rather than just timing you. Repeating a typing test builds speed at the keys you are already good at while leaving your weak keys untouched. Practice works when it is aimed at the specific keys and fingers that are failing, which is why every session here reports which keys you confuse and which finger is slowing you down.

Why does my accuracy not improve when I use backspace?

Because accuracy here counts keystrokes, not the final text. Backspace repairs what is on screen but the mistake still happened. An accuracy score you could rescue by correcting would reward heavy backspacing and hide the exact weakness worth training.

Can a website tell which finger I used?

No, and any site claiming to detect it is guessing. A browser reports which character was typed, never which finger pressed it. What a site can do is teach the correct finger for each key and refuse to advance when the wrong key is pressed, which is what the lessons here do.
