Reviews of Talking Typer

Leave a Review Talking Typer
  • Very good, easy to use

    Very good typing/tutorial/learn/practice app. Easy to use. Simple layout. Works with external bluetooth keyboard. Has audio/voice feedback/guidance.

    5 Stars. Thanks Devs!
  • The Latest Update

    I loved this app before the update. The latest update has made it impossible to delete users from the app and you can’t change the voice in the settings.
  • Needs a timed typing test.

    This app would be perfect if it had a timed typing test, like in Talking Typing Teacher. I really enjoyed using that program and being told how many words I'd typed, how many were incorrect, my WPM, and my overall score. Could someone please update this app to include this important feature ASAP? If so, I'll definitely give it 5 stars!
