### 3/5 — It’s alright i guess

*2025-02-06*

It’s pretty good to teach a new learner but not for spelling like most of the words are not REAL lol i mean one time they have you spell Kafka lol and for any Honkai star rail players you guys know what I mean haha but it’s pretty fun if you or your kid have a hard time typing fast then you will need to learn how to type fast and that’s how you move on to the next level your gonna wanna get used to this you have to be fast and this app can work with both keyboard OR just the screen keyboard so if you wanna try it  go for it but you need to buy it first is it worth it? Yes and no it depends on what you are looking for it’s pretty fun

*2022-07-24*

购买了app 但是后面不知道为什么，课程又锁起来了。是一年有效期吗？

### 1/5 — Why can’t I share this app with my family?

*2022-06-15*

Waste of money

### 1/5 — typing experience completely unnatural

*2022-03-29*

The way the text moves on the screen is not at all how actual typing works. It zooms infinitely across the screen, which is not what I want to teach. Tried to request a refund, but could not get one.

**Developer response:** To use a standard / nonmoving typing text field, go to:
Main Menu → Options (⚙️) → Nonmoving typing field.
To contact me and give your suggestions please write to animaltyping@gmail.com or go to Main Menu → Help (?) -> Report a problem.
