I mean, it's an interesting one and I proved myself one more time that my reaction time is still pretty terrible.

Disclaimer: accuracy of the results highly depends on the device you use and the software implementations of the tests. Do not use this app for self-diagnosis. Only designated and certified pieces of medical equipment can be used for accurate medical measurement.

Looks cool :)

typing tests

How can I say... My Android keyboard is probably lacking the proper dictionary and is probably less reactive than the native app installed by default. Not sure this test can be accurately (even professionally) tested on any device :/.

Even a typing test on a keyboard is odd. My grandma surely gonna fail this test and not because she's old, but because she doesn't know where the different keys/letters are placed on the keyboard.

Or am I missing something here?

I think using the dictionary is cheating here.

That's weird. When I install keyboards I don't notice slowdowns but rather improvements due to the mainstream solutions being extremely bloated.

But that's what the test is about. It's not about how fast you can press keys. It's about using your key position knowledge.

I use heliboard, and it's definitely lagging compared to default google KB when typing on my phone.

Oh god no they suck tremendously...I'm using heliboard and live with the somewhat janky performance.
