The most common length for typing tests and job applications. One minute gives a steadier number than shorter tests. Start typing to begin; press Tab or Esc for new text.
Every keystroke is timed. After a few tests, Boost Type shows the exact keys, letter pairs and habits that cost you the most time, and builds short practice around them.
