Try it: type f and j
Rest your index fingers on the two keys with bumps, F and J, then type the letters below. The next key lights up in the colour of the finger that presses it.
A live practice keyboard appears here.
How the 30 days work
One calm, guided session a day. Each day unlocks when you reach its accuracy target, never a speed target. Miss it? Try again with fresh text. There is no failing, only “not yet”.
-
Days 1–7
Find home
The home row and your first reaches. Mistakes stop the cursor, so you only ever practise the right movement.
-
Days 8–14
The whole alphabet
Every letter by touch, with a count of the letters you have mastered.
-
Days 15–21
Real writing
Capitals, punctuation, the most common words and full sentences.
-
Days 22–30
Speed and stamina
Numbers, rhythm and real-life text, ending in your 40 WPM graduation test and certificate.
Meet the fingers
Each finger is a character with its own colour and its own keys. The keyboard and the lessons use the same colours, so you always know who presses what.
-
Pip
Left little finger
` 1 Q A Z Tab Caps Lock Shift
Pip guards the far-left edge: Q, A, Z and the left Shift for right-hand capitals. Small finger, big responsibilities.
-
Rory
Left ring finger
2 W S X
Rory lives on S and keeps a steady watch over W and X. Slow and sure is Rory's style.
-
Mika
Left middle finger
3 E D C
Mika sits on D and reaches up to E, the most-used letter in English. Mika is busy and loves it.
-
Dash
Left index finger
4 5 R T F G V B
Dash lives on F: feel for the bump. Dash is quick and covers the most keys on the left side.
-
Jojo
Right index finger
6 7 Y U H J N M
Jojo lives on J, the other bump. Jojo mirrors Dash and handles Y, U, H, N and M.
-
Kit
Right middle finger
8 I K ,
Kit rests on K and looks after I and the comma. Kit is calm and never rushes.
-
Lulu
Right ring finger
9 O L .
Lulu rests on L and ends your sentences with a full stop. Lulu likes things tidy.
-
Pax
Right little finger
0 - = P [ ] \ ; ' / Enter Backspace Shift
Pax holds the right edge: P, the semicolon, Enter, Backspace and the right Shift. Pax has a long reach.
-
The Twins
Thumbs
Space
The Twins share the Space bar. They float just above it and tap it lightly between every word.
A coach, not a race
-
A keyboard that shows the way
The next key lights up in the colour of the finger that presses it, with that finger’s name. Capitals light up the right Shift too, so you learn which finger, not just which key.
-
Progress you can see
Every letter you master is counted and celebrated, and practice focuses on the keys that still slow you down.
-
Calm and accuracy-first
No racing timers in the early days, no red walls of mistakes, no pop-ups in the middle of a lesson.
Questions
Is Typingo really free?
Yes. Every lesson, test and practice mode is free, and you never need an account. Your progress is saved in your browser.
Can I really reach 40 WPM in 30 days?
Most people who practise about fifteen minutes a day get there or close to it. If you need longer, bonus days keep going until you graduate. There is no deadline and no failing.
Why does it focus on accuracy instead of speed?
Speed built on mistakes stalls quickly. Accurate, relaxed typing gets faster on its own, which is why every day is unlocked by accuracy, not by speed.
I got slower after switching to touch typing. Is that normal?
Completely normal. Most people dip for two to four weeks while the new habit replaces the old one. Keep going; the dip is the method working.
Can I use it on my phone?
You can read everything on a phone, but the lessons need a physical keyboard. A laptop, desktop or tablet with a keyboard all work.
Will it help me pass a data entry or government typing test?
The Job-Ready section offers exam-style practice with long passages, no-Backspace mode, KDPH and error percentage. It is practice only and not affiliated with any recruiting body, so always check your official notification for the exact rules.
