About Typing Speed Test
The Typing Speed Test measures how fast and accurately you type an everyday English paragraph. Speed is counted the standard way, where every five correct characters make one word, divided by the minutes elapsed. It works with phone and tablet keyboards as well as physical ones. It runs entirely in your browser, with nothing sent anywhere or saved.
FAQs
How is WPM calculated?
Correct characters ÷ 5 ÷ minutes. So 250 correct characters in one minute is 50 WPM.
What is a good typing speed?
Around 40 WPM is typical. 60 or more is fast, and accuracy above 95% matters more than raw speed.
Does backspace count?
You can fix mistakes; only the characters left in the box are scored.
