Short daily typing drills with a streak, daily goal and badges to type faster.
Read full description
Typing Trainer: Daily Drills helps you get faster at the keyboard a few minutes at a time. Pick a quick drill, type for 30 or 60 seconds, and keep a daily practice streak going. Small, regular sessions are the easiest way to build speed and accuracy.
It suits students learning to type for school, beginners who still hunt for keys, people returning to typing after years on a phone, and anyone who wants a short, repeatable warm-up before work or study.
YOUR FIVE-MINUTE ROUTINE
1. Open the app and look at today's goal on the Practice tab.
2. Pick a drill and a length. 15 or 30 seconds is a warm-up; 60 or 120 seconds builds stamina. Any length from 10 seconds to 10 minutes works too.
3. Start typing. The timer waits for your first key, so there is no rush to get ready.
4. Check your result, tap Try again, and repeat until today's goal is done.
SIX KINDS OF DRILL
• Common words: the most frequent words in random order, the classic speed drill.
• Numbers: digits and long numbers, handy for homework, spreadsheets and data entry.
• Punctuation: capitals, commas, quotes and brackets, the keys most people slow down on.
• Paragraphs: real sentences to practise flow and rhythm.
• My texts: paste notes, vocabulary lists or a passage from class and drill on your own material.
• Exam: one long timed passage when you want to test your endurance.
A GOAL EVERY DAY
Each day the trainer sets a target speed based on 90% of your best result. Reach it with at least 90% accuracy in a drill of 30 seconds or more and the day counts toward your streak. As you improve, the goal rises with you.
SEE YOUR HABIT GROW
• The Progress tab shows your average speed, best speed, accuracy and streak.
• An activity map of the last 12 weeks fills in a square for every day you practised, so missed days stand out.
• Charts show speed and accuracy across your last 30 drills, plus a short list of recent results.
BADGES TO AIM FOR
Unlock badges for your first drill, 10 and 50 finished drills, a one-week streak, 40, 60, 80 and 100 words per minute at 90% accuracy, 98% accuracy over a minute, and a completed 5-minute exam.
FRIENDLY FEEDBACK WHILE YOU TYPE
• Every result shows net and gross words per minute, accuracy, errors, characters and time.
• Mistakes are counted word by word, so one slip never ruins the rest of the drill.
• Turn the live speed counter off if numbers make you nervous, and turn on a gentle vibration for wrong keys.
• Share a result card with a study buddy and challenge them to beat it.
PRACTISE IN YOUR LANGUAGE
Drills come in English, Vietnamese, Spanish, Indonesian, Portuguese and Hindi. Use the on-screen keyboard or connect a Bluetooth or USB keyboard to a phone or tablet, in portrait or landscape.
WHAT THE APP IS ALLOWED TO DO
Typing Trainer only asks for internet access, which it uses for ads, Google Play purchases and anonymous usage and crash reports, and vibration, used for the optional wrong-key buzz. It has no accessibility service, no overlay and no access to your contacts, photos, files or location.
FREE WITH ADS, OR PREMIUM
All drills, lengths, languages, badges and the daily goal are free, with 7 days of history and up to 3 saved texts. Ads support the free version and stay off the typing and result screens. Premium is optional: a monthly or yearly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. It removes ads, keeps your whole history with CSV export, allows unlimited saved texts and lets you customise exams from 5 to 30 minutes, with or without backspace and colour hints. Subscriptions renew until you cancel them in Google Play.
YOUR DATA STAYS WITH YOU
There is no account to create. Drill results, your streak and saved texts live only on your device, and the words you type are never uploaded. You can clear your history at any time in Settings.
Set aside five minutes today, finish your first drill, and start a streak you will want to keep.
