What is one of the biggest challenges of every fresh iPhone/IPodTouch user? Right, typing on a virtual keyboard at an acceptable pace. TypeFast aims to solve this problem. It teaches your fingers how to type quickly.
Retype any text - your own or preinstalled exercises - and concentrate on the most important keys of the standard - “Qwerty” - keyboard. Use both your thumbs or any other finger and see how fast and accurate your typing is.
With the next needed key highlighted you don’t need to worry about searching letters. As a consequence you easily increase your learning curve.
The exercises include arrangements of the 200 most common words, literary and historic works, and even the last wrong typed letters. That makes it possible to learn from your faults. A little practise and…one day you will suddenly notice your fingers autonomously wander to the right places. That leaves more time for you to check your emails, pursue your hobby, earn money or just to relax with your friends. Simply get TypeFast.
