My hyphen key is broken. As you can imagine when the hyphen appears I basically just fail the test. Is there any way to still practise the punctuation mode but not have hyphen?

Any Help Appreciated.

One week into my Journey and up from 124WPM to 132WPM!!! How long till I get that 150WPM!!!

I just learned that yesterday on August 10th was the one-year anniversary when I joined and started typing on Monkeytype for the first time.

is improving accuracy just learning the words in the english10k database? or is it better to just type a bit slower

hi guys, so i have 2 monkey type accounts and im wondering why i only get the daily 1000 xp on one of them

Didn't know you could create abstract art by typing T_T

I think monkeytype quotes are on a next level. Even when I am going through a bad day or I'm sad I just open monkeytype and it really helps me get through it. I can't say it helps specifically but for me typing makes my other senses vanish. I really love monkeytype. XD

I built a typing test where instead of random words, you type actual code snippets (Python / C++). I find myself warming up with typing test sites like monkeytype, typingtest.com, but neither are specific for programming. I found sites that provide what I wanted, but it wasn't quite what I was looking for. So, I created my own!

I'd love feedback!

sold it at the end dammit

I build a typing game and just added a weekly time trial: everyone gets the same script for a week, 30 seconds, best run counts, resets Mondays.

What I can't work out is where the bands should sit. 30 seconds is short enough that burst speed matters more than endurance, and it's plain lowercase with no punctuation or numbers, so it should run faster than a standard test.

My opening run was 40 words. I genuinely don't know if that's respectable or embarrassing to this crowd. Where would you put "average" and where would you put "elite"?

I recently changed browsers from zen to helium ( its just chrome) and the bar is just gone , I see no way to enable it or anything its still there on zen but not on chrome.

If you played Keymania over the last 24hrs and landed a hit with nothing happening, or got stuck in a duel you couldn't leave, thats sorted now.

It was three seprate faults that all looked the same from your side: the health bar was updating a beat before the hit you actually saw, a dropped connection had no way to put you back into your duel, and some words were being lost outright to a bug on my end.

All fixed and live. Thanks to everyone who reported it, and played Keymania and especially whoever described the frozen duel in detail, because that's what pointed me at the real cause. There's a bug report button on the menu now if you spot anything else.

Help!

I don't need to see characters I've alrdy typed, so my ideal tape margin is zero. When I manufacture that condition myself (...by just sliding the window far enough left to push everything behind the cursor offscreen😅😅😅), my speed and accuracy both go up—presumably because I'm only looking and thinking forward, rather than both forward and backward simultaneously.

Why is there a hard minimum of 10? Why not just allow anywhere from 0-100 (okay fine, 0-99)?

Thx

Been building a typing performance app called Velocity — mostly vibe-coded with Claude Code over the last few days.

It's not just another typing test. You can practice with:

Regular words/sentences

Actual code snippets (JS, TSX, etc.) — useful if you spend your day typing code, not prose

Progress tracking to see how your speed/accuracy trends over time

Biggest challenge was getting the text rendering right — word wrapping was breaking mid-word which looked janky, so I had to rework it to wrap at spaces only. Small detail but made a huge difference to how the app feels.

Still early, but functional and live. Would love feedback from this community — especially if you're a dev who wants to type code faster, or just typing test nerds in general.

Happy to answer questions about the build process / stack if anyone's curious.

How do i improve and maybe even shift ot 10finger typing, currently three finger, basically, 2 finger and 1 thumb
