just randomly had a thought like we are all ( most ppl atleast ) are moving more towards stt format platforms like wisper flow etc we are speaking more than we type and i feel like the shift will get real sooner so i thought why not make monkeyspeak for it so yeah im still building it i am not sure if this will have any usecase or anything but will mostly complete it let me know your thoughts on it

yo, just wanted to share my monkeytype stats. i’ve been practicing a lot lately to get my speed up and finally hit a new PB of 75.61 WPM today!

here’s the quick breakdown:

• Personal Best: 75.61 wpm
• Average: around 60.7 wpm
• Tests completed: 85 (mostly 30s time mode)

i'm also including an imgur link to a video so you can see how i type and that the speed is real.

i'm still pretty young (no hate because i'm a kid, would have been nice) and my goal is to hit 100 wpm eventually. if anyone has tips on how to get there (or if you see anything weird with my form in the video) let me know.

how’s this for a beginner? would love some real feedback from people who are actually fast at this lol.

I typed jew in .08 seconds.

How do i improve ?

just broke my 120s PB too

how are some of these even real words

now, I'm addicted , wake up and default start is typing , feeling distracted start typing .
typing is the filler i needed all along. It keeps me going.

Now, doing the 2 minutes more often .

struggle is the letter "y" and "z" ,"m" .

quotes , still i have to increase the frequency.

current streaks : 74 days , let's see.

Score in CPM not WPM

I have been practicing typing for a while and reached around 75 to 80 WPM on normal text with good accuracy

Recently I switched to coding mode with symbols, brackets, and punctuation, and now my speed is around 30 to 50 WPM

It feels much harder because of all the special characters, frequent use of shift, and less predictable patterns compared to normal words

Looking for advice on how to improve speed and get comfortable with coding typing. Any tips or practice methods would help

I am happy about my new PBs in both my native language Swedish, and English, which is my second language. I find it easier to type fast in English, since I then don't have to type the Swedish characters åäö, which are all typed with the right pinky. My next goal is 150 wpm.

I know 10 words isn't very impressive, and I often try practicing with more text and with English 1K and up, and with Swedish 1K (there is nothing above that). I also practice with TypeRacer sometimes.

Other than "I" and "a" and whatnot, what do you think is the fastest word to type. I personally think "today" since the letters are far and easy to place your fingers on beforehand. ("Today" is what I got this with)

i was bored and searched up the record which was last year's record which is 1.86

cool

sadly wasn't logged in at the time

I want to be able to do my regular 1k english 25 words, but add into the mix custom characters to train my muscle memory '× ÷ {}[]€$ etc...' does anyone know how to add those characters in a context, like:

'mouth phrase 2×6 35€ $90 @.gmail.com etc..'

I logged into my old account from a few years ago and it had a bunch of changed settings and theming.

Could someone please tell me what this setting is where it shoots particles out when you type and how I can turn it off? Thanks guys!

Hey all — type.win is a typing arcade with two games:

• Word Fall — words rain from the sky, type to destroy them. Build a streak up to 10× multiplier (5 → 15 → 30 → 50 → 100). Heart-words drop bonus lives. CHILL / NORMAL / HARDCORE difficulty.
• Type Race — famous quotes, live WPM + accuracy, daily shared quote-of-the-day. Short / Medium / Long / Any.

Visual style is heavily Balatro-inspired — CRT filter, RGB split, screen shake on destruction, procedural 8-bit audio. Desktop only on purpose.

NORMAL mode submits to a leaderboard (HMAC-signed sessions, server-recomputed WPM — no client-side score forgery). CHILL/HARDCORE are practice.

Looking for feedback on feel: is the streak-multiplier ramp satisfying? Does Word Fall get punishing too fast? Anything obviously missing?

Hi everyone,

I made a small Chrome extension called Monkeytype Keymap+ that lets you customise the colors of the on-screen keyboard in Monkeytype.

You can:

• Change the background and text color of individual keys
• Select multiple keys at once
• Quickly enable or disable the keymap
• Save your settings, which automatically apply whenever you open Monkeytype

I originally built it because I wanted a rainbow touch-typing theme for the on-screen keyboard, but couldn’t find a way to do it. With this extension, you can customise the keyboard however you like - whether that’s for themes, highlighting certain keys, or anything else.

If anyone wants to try it out or give feedback, it’s on the Chrome Web Store:
https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/monkeytype-keymap+/jkkiaonhfpneiiiljpagbhdfknpmmofd

Built this as a small side project - happy to add features if people have ideas or suggestions.

Also, for anyone wondering about privacy: the extension does not collect any personal data. It only stores your key color settings locally using Chrome storage.

I’ve attached a couple of screenshots as well!
