Review by:
2.5/5

While you may expect your typing speed and accuracy to get better over time naturally, improvements are often rather slow if you are not properly challenged.

FasterTyper is a lightweight educational program that that can speed things up a bit by having you complete several typing-related exercises. Moreover, it allows you to challenge a friend to see which of you is the fastest and most accurate writer.

FasterTyper turns the learning process into an entertaining game, and there is no greater way to get better at something than by having fun while doing it.

The exercises are not complex by any means, but the program does allow you to choose from a number of difficulty modes, depending on your current skill level. The game continues until you give up, and you have a specified amount of time to type the correct word or phrase.

It is possible to play together with a friend, each of you taking turns to finish the same exercise as quickly as possible. However, the game ends after each test is completed, and you do not have the option to keep it going for longer.

While things certainly look good so far, FasterTyper does not yet have a large enough word database to keep users interested for very long.

While new terms seem to be added with each release, the application needs to offer a much larger number of words and phrases to be a realistic alternative to other similar software solutions.

FasterTyper records the result of each exercise, and you can consult this list whenever you wish to see how far you have progressed.

Moreover, multiple achievements can be obtained by getting a certain number of correct answers during a game, as well as adding as many friends as possible to the player list.

FasterTyper has all the makings of a useful typing tutor, but it still needs to be improved in some respects. Most importantly, users should be able to continue a multiplayer game even after completing an exercise, and the word database needs to be extended significantly.
