YOUR SPEED
What does WPM mean?
Words per minute measures typing speed. We divide your correctly typed characters, including spaces, by five, then divide by the elapsed time in minutes.
YOUR PRECISION
Every character counts.
Accuracy is the percentage of characters in your current text that match the passage. Use backspace to fix a mistake; corrected characters improve your accuracy.

A FEW QUICK ANSWERS
Good to know.
Is this typing speed test free?
Yes. Typewell is free to use, with no account or download required. Choose a duration and start typing.
Which test duration should I choose?
The 15 second test is a quick check, while 30 or 60 seconds gives you more time to settle into a rhythm. Use the same duration when comparing your scores.
Can I correct typing mistakes?
Yes. Press backspace to correct a character. WPM and accuracy reflect the text you have entered at the end of the test, so corrections count. The clock keeps running while you edit.
Does Typewell save what I type?
No. The typing test runs in your browser. Your keystrokes and results are not sent to a server or saved when you leave the page.
