Type Fast is daily typing practice for your phone. A few short drills a day help you text, take notes and write messages faster and with fewer typos, and a built-in typing test shows the improvement in words per minute.
Most of us type on a phone keyboard far more than on a computer, yet nobody ever taught us how. Type Fast turns that everyday skill into something you can train, a few minutes at a time.
▸ HOW TO PRACTISE
1. Pick a drill and a length, from a 15-second burst to a 10-minute session.
2. Type the text on screen. Correct letters and mistakes are marked as you go.
3. Check your WPM and accuracy, then try to beat it tomorrow.
▸ DRILLS FOR EVERYDAY TYPING
• Common words: the most frequently used words, shuffled every time.
• Paragraphs: full sentences for smooth, natural writing.
• Punctuation: capital letters, commas, quotes and brackets, the reason phone typing often feels slow.
• Numbers: phone numbers, prices, dates and long figures.
• My texts: paste class notes, vocabulary or a presentation and practise on your own material.
▸ LEARN IN SIX LANGUAGES
• Practice texts in English, Vietnamese, Spanish, Indonesian, Portuguese and Hindi.
• Studying a new language? Typing its words is a quick way to get used to spelling and accents.
• All texts are stored in the app, so practice works offline at school, on a commute or on a flight.
• Characters your keyboard cannot produce are swapped for plain ones, so every drill is fully typeable.
▸ BUILD A HABIT, NOT JUST A SCORE
• Daily challenge: a target set from your own best result, refreshed every day.
• Streaks count the days in a row you practise.
• A two-week chart shows how many sessions you did each day.
• Achievements unlock at 40, 60, 80 and 100 WPM.
▸ CLEAR FEEDBACK
• Net WPM, gross WPM, accuracy, errors and characters typed after every drill.
• Word-by-word checking: one typo affects only one word, and an accidental extra space does not ruin the rest of the line.
• Standard counting of five characters per word, so your speed is comparable to other typing tests.
• Live speed and accuracy while you type, or hide them to practise calmly.
• Optional gentle vibration when you mistype.
• Charts of WPM and accuracy over your last 30 drills, your best result, your 10-test average and a percentile estimate.
• Share a score card with classmates or friends.
▸ COMFORTABLE ON ANY DEVICE
• Works in portrait and landscape; rotating mid-drill keeps your progress.
• Use a Bluetooth or USB keyboard if you also want to practise on real keys.
• Exam mode adds long timed sessions with plain text for when you are ready for a bigger test.
▸ QUIET WHILE YOU PRACTISE
Ads never appear on the practice screen or the results screen.
▸ FREE AND PREMIUM
Everything you need to practise is free: all lengths, drills and languages, the standard 10-minute exam, charts, daily challenges, streaks, achievements and share cards, a 7-day history and up to three saved texts.
Premium is optional. It removes ads, unlocks your complete history with CSV export, lets you save as many texts as you like and customises exam mode (5 to 30 minutes, Backspace lock, highlighting on or off). It comes as a monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel, and you can manage or cancel them anytime in Google Play.
▸ WHAT THE APP NEEDS
• Internet: for ads, Google Play purchases and anonymous crash reports and usage statistics. Practice itself is offline.
• Vibration: only for the optional mistake feedback.
▸ PRIVACY
No account and no sign-up. Your progress and pasted texts are stored on your device, and what you type stays there.
