How Time Spent Typing is Measured on Typing.com

Ever wonder how Typing.com accurately measures time spent typing? Let's break it down!


Active Typing Time: Our system is designed to track only the moments when users are actively typing. This means that when students are watching videos, reading introductory content, or checking their stars at the end of a lesson, the timer isn't ticking. It focuses solely on the actual typing time as opposed to the entire time spent on a lesson. 


Why This Matters:

  • Precision: By measuring only the active typing time, we ensure an accurate reflection of a student's typing practice.
  • Consistency: If a user uses an external timer or smartphone to track time, they'll notice a difference. Our system records less time because it excludes non-typing activities.

Bottom Line: Our goal is to provide a precise and fair measurement of typing practice, helping students improve their skills effectively. So, type away and trust our system to keep track of your progress accurately!
