Frequently asked questions
What is a good typing speed?
The average typist hits around 40 WPM. Above 60 is faster than most people; 80+ WPM is considered advanced and meets the bar for most professional typing roles. Competitive typists reach 130–160 WPM.
How quickly can I improve?
Most people see measurable gains within 1–2 weeks of 15-minute daily sessions. Going from 40 to 60 WPM typically takes 3–6 weeks. The key is daily consistency and working on your weakest keys, not mindless repetition.
Does TYPEFAST save my progress?
Yes. Test results, high scores, keyboard heatmap data, streak, badges, and lesson progress are all saved to your browser's local storage. Nothing is sent to a server. Clear it at any time from your browser settings.
What languages are supported?
English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, German, and Italian. Each language has its own word bank with easy, medium, and hard tiers. Switch languages from the dropdown at the top of the test area.
Is TYPEFAST really free?
Yes, completely free with no sign-up. TYPEFAST is ad-supported through Google AdSense, which keeps the service free for everyone.
Can I use it to prepare for a work typing test?
Yes. Classic mode mirrors the timed tests used in most employment assessments (data entry, administrative, legal, etc.). 65+ WPM at 95%+ accuracy meets the bar for the vast majority of professional typing roles.
