Frequently Asked Questions
What is WPM?
WPM stands for Words Per Minute. It measures how many words you can type in one minute. A word is standardized as 5 characters. Average typing speed is 40 WPM, while professional typists often exceed 70 WPM.
How is accuracy calculated?
Accuracy is the percentage of characters typed correctly. If you type 100 characters and 5 are wrong, your accuracy is 95%. High accuracy is often more important than raw speed.
How can I improve my typing speed?
Practice regularly, focus on accuracy first (speed follows), use all fingers with proper hand placement, don't look at the keyboard, and take breaks to avoid fatigue.
What's a good typing speed?
40 WPM is average, 60-70 WPM is good, 80+ WPM is excellent. Professional typists and programmers often type 80-100+ WPM.
How does multiplayer mode work?
Create a room and share the 6-character code with friends. Up to 4 players race on the same text simultaneously. Watch real-time progress bars as everyone types. Highest WPM wins!
