About YourTyping

YourTyping is a free, no-nonsense typing speed test built for anyone who wants to type faster and more accurately — students, professionals, coders, and competitive typists alike.

Pick your test length, choose a difficulty or language, or upload your own text to practice with. Track your progress over time, compete on the public leaderboard, and see exactly which keys are slowing you down with detailed post-test analytics.

Why this exists

Most typing tests give you a single number and nothing else. YourTyping was built to actually show you why — the per-key error heatmap exists because "your WPM is 62" isn't nearly as useful as knowing your right pinky is the actual bottleneck. It's built and maintained independently, in spare time, not by a company — which is also why there's no clutter, no paywalls, and no dark patterns pushing you toward a subscription.

What makes it different

Beyond the standard test, YourTyping includes a dedicated code typing test built around real programming syntax and symbols — something most typing sites skip entirely — along with a typing game for lower-pressure practice, and a blog covering typing speed data and technique guides.

Still growing

This is an active project, with new features and content added regularly. No clutter, no paywalls — just a clean space to get better, one keystroke at a time.
