FAQ
What exactly is The Typist?
- The Typist: Typing Tests is a fun romp through the world of competitive typing! Ok, no, it's actually a typing test app that lets you test your typing speed with texts from popular books. It's a good way to see how fast you can type on your phone or tablet, test out different kinds of keyboard layouts, or track your typing improvement over time.
Why are my typing test scores so low?!
- The Typist: A Quick Typing Test calculates your final words per minute typing score by taking your *raw* wpm typing speed and subtracting any errors that you made. This can result in some pretty low scores as every mistake is a 1 wpm penalty. Thankfully, your score can't go below 0 or we'd have a riot here in Typing Land!
Making typing errors in real life generally means that you have to go back and fix them. So The Typist uses this penalty mechanic as a way to make things a little more realistic.
Are there any permissions required?
- The startup notification permission is now necessary for the optional daily notification feature. So much for no required permissions!
Can The Typist improve my typing speed?
- While not scientifically proven, I'd like to say yes. The only way to improve your typing speed is to practice - and by taking a typing test or two a day, you should see an improvement in your typing speed over time. The Typist does include a nice historical chart of your past test results, so you can see your progress as you improve. There's also a local high score list/leaderboard to give you some extra motivation!
Can I change the size of the text?
- Absolutely! Click on the "wrench" icon on the testing page to access the font size setting, and adjust it to your preferences. Note that if you change the font size while in the middle of a typing test, the size won't update until the next test (or reset).
Is The Typist usable in landscape mode?
- Yes and no. Landscape mode on phones isn't supported (because there isn't enough space to fit everything the text and the virtual keyboard), but it will work on any HDPI+ (high dpi) tablet (Nexus 7, Nexus 10, etc) device.
