About This Calculator

The Typing Test measures how fast and accurately you can type. It shows your typing speed in words per minute (WPM) and tracks your accuracy percentage. Take the test to find out your current speed, then practice regularly to improve. The test presents you with text to type and measures your performance in real time. Average typing speed is around 40 WPM, while professional typists can exceed 80 WPM. Improving your typing speed can save you hours of work each week whether you are a student writing papers, a professional answering emails, or anyone who uses a keyboard daily. The test works on both desktop and mobile devices.
