Typing test: https://monkeytype.com
I used Unexpected Keyboard
Any tips on how to improve typing speed? (without using word suggestion and autocorrect)
I’m interested in how fast people who swipe type are.
Also, do those keyboards like Thumb Key and FlickBoard have the potential “to be faster” than the standard keyboards?

I used messageease for a month or so but was unable to improve :/ https://www.exideas.com/ME/index.php
Using an old Lite-On SK-1688U. I grew playing text based games (MUDs) and would highly recommend anyone who wants to get better at typing to play some of them in their spare time. They’re free in most cases and have different themes/systems of play.
just realized this was for virtual keyboards, so nevermind
53 touch
42 swipe
I believe my pc keyboard I get 70 wpm or something
HP office keyboard from 2010 (The cadillac of keyboards), and somewhere around 90 WPM.
HP office keyboard on your android phone?
Didn’t see which group I was in lol
I made the same mistake and was initially like “50wpm? Amateur.” Once I saw it was Android, I shut my mouth with my 20wpm on my phone.
76 wpm at 85% accuracy with MS SwiftKey
44 wpm.
I’ve tried a lot of different systems, and now I primarily use STT. Even with the things I have to change manually, it’s still much faster for me to use STT than to swipe.
25 wpm 83%
I was using phones with hardware keyboards for way too long and never really learned to type on screen keyboards. Now I just hate them and use desktop communicators whenever I can.
46 WPM 98% accuracy GBoard. I fucked up on the final word lmao
My speed is garbage whether I just type or use the swipe. Mainly because unlike using an actual keyboard where I can get over 100wpm, I can’t really touch type so I have to constantly switch between looking at the keyboard and looking at the text coming up.
43wpm, 95% accuracy, Gboard Dvorak no swipe
Fingers are a bit cold from just walking the dog, and I’m tired from getting off a 12 hour shift, have a feeling I could do better under different circumstances.
Haven’t tested myself on a real keyboard in a long time, but once upon a time I could hit well north of 100wpm pretty consistently if I tried. When I tested myself in preparation for my current job about 5 years ago I think I usually hovered somewhere around 80-90 (911 dispatch, my agency requires at least 60 to pass the aptitude test, I wasn’t worried about passing but I was curious where I was at since I hadn’t been typing much at the time)
67wpm 97% accuracy with chrooma keyboard and swipe. Switched to gboard and only got 54/87.
I was faster and more accurate in typing manually (~ 70 wpm) than with swipe typing with Gboard (~ 50 wpm) lol. Maybe I’m just more used to using FlorisBoard daily tho
Florisboard with no swipe, no word predictions, no autocorrection, no nonsense.
WPM? Fast enough. It takes more time to proofread, edit and attach files than to actually type, anyway, so I don’t care about words per minute. Never have.
