### 3/5 — Mostly very good

*2026-08-07, version 5.0.2*

Everything is great except the locked lessons. Dunno who thought of that idea.

### 3/5 — Why does it lock once you finish it?

*2023-11-05, version 5.0.2*

One question. Why when you finish one of the level thingies it locks it and if you press on it it says you have to pay 4 bucks? Like that doesn’t make sense. The other taptyping game on my school iPad just turns it gold once you finish and lets you restart it if you want. If you want people to get this app don’t do that. Thank you!

### 4/5 — Good but...

*2023-01-02, version 5.0.2*

I really like  TapTyping because I never become bored practising typing  and it puts  me in a habit.  The only problem is that my fingers are to small for the iPad so I use a Bluetooth keyboard, so some of the lessons are impossible/useless to do because it's iPad keyboard lessons not computer lessons. Otherwise it's really good and I love doing it.

### 5/5 — Really good app

*2022-08-15, version 5.0.2*

Awesome 🤬

### 5/5 — Good game

*2022-07-28, version 5.0.2*

Great game and recommend.

### 4/5 — One request please

*2022-07-23, version 5.0.2*

This is an excellent app. Please consider adding an option to import paragraphs of text selected by the user. Thank you.

### 5/5 — 5 stars

*2022-07-20, version 5.0.2*

Used Typist for hours and hours practicing my typing and it has helped me improve drastically through hard diligent practice, even made me a better speller. Great work on the app ✌️

### 2/5 — Two major flaws in design.

*2022-04-08, version 5.0.2*

First, keyboard isn’t normal iOS like I have it set up. Double space for period, autocapitalization, and stupid emoji button are all moved around. 

Second, autocorrect for past two to three words doesn’t work. You have to actually go back and fix it. Not accurate wpm because you’re going to have those features on your phone forever.

Heat map is neat.

### 3/5 — Good

*2022-03-16, version 5.0.2*

It’s very good at teaching you how to type I recommend it to you

### 5/5 — Relearning to type

*2021-11-12, version 5.0.2*

Even though I type at around 80 wpm, I wanted to redo the whole journey of learning how to type, on the iPad. This is what this app gave me. Thanks a lot.

### 5/5 — Text faster

*2021-04-17, version 5.0.2*

Best app for learning how to text fast.  I love it!

### 5/5 — Very Good

*2021-01-18, version 5.0.2*

It is very helpful for typing fast. Have so much fun on typing fast.

### 2/5 — Needs work

*2020-12-16, version 5.0.2*

It was going great and I was starting to love it until I got to a lesson on the crash course where it won’t recognize the letter H. I am typing on an iPad with a keyboard attached to it (bought through Apple website) and it was working proper up until this lesson and now I am stuck at 87% completion because the only way to type H is to pull up the virtual iPad keyboard and that isn’t going to help me learn anything.

### 1/5 — Out

*2025-07-24, version 5.0.2*

Ip 15 pro, ios 18.5. App bị văng liên tục.

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2024-12-27, version 5.0.2*

This does not help improve your typing. You have to have lessons for each row. I really do not recommend you to use this app. It is very uncommon. I would say use the app called edclub. It really helps you improve your typing. it has videos about good posture and it has up to more than 100  lessons. It has a lot of different types of learning skills. I use this app because it is much more helpful. me as a parent, I would say my child learns much better on Edclub. my mom and dad say that whoever created this app  TapTyping is a terrible person.

### 1/5 — Zero star 👎👎

*2024-04-06, version 5.0.2*

Still iphone x interface. Waste of time 👎👎

### 1/5 — Don’t download if you get panic attacks easily, or don’t want to pay for EVERYTHING

*2023-07-16, version 5.0.2*

For starters, I get panic attacks very very easily and this caused at least 5 of them. Once you do one course of every sample, it locks and you have to pay 3$ a month minimum for ONE course. I would say there are about 10-15 courses that all cost 3$ at a minimum for a month. It isn’t all that great if you don’t want to pay for this every month and if you get panic attacks.

### 1/5 — Plz

*2022-02-20, version 5.0.2*

You say this game is fun but how do I know if it won’t let me download it

### 1/5 — Locked practice

*2021-03-26, version 5.0.2*

Every time you finish a practice it will take you back to the home page and lock the one you were practicing on, so you basically cant do it again

### 1/5 — Wow not impressed

*2021-01-13, version 5.0.2*

I got this app hoping to help improve my typing after I got the app I opened it and started to do the lessons and after I had left the app it locked the lesson so I couldn’t finish!😡🙄

### 1/5 — Stupid and dumb

*2020-11-29, version 5.0.2*

I’m trying to get everything correct but it doesn’t work for me so I hate this dumb app😡😡😡

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2020-07-23, version 5.0.2*

This is horrible I don’t like this app because I wanted to quit but when I quit it just locks the typing activity I just quit and then I  cannot use it and I just downloaded this app and I am going to delete this app now 😡

### 1/5 — Not great very disappointed

*2020-07-02, version 5.0.2*

Great

### 5/5 — Tap Typing refers to an educational online activity in my mind.

*2024-08-29, version 5.0.2*

This is an extraordinary experience. It helps children under 10 years old become a more experienced typer. This really improves your typing ability, to increase productivity. This is soo much fun!

### 5/5 — The best typing games I have ever played

*2024-07-24, version 5.0.2*

I love playing this game!! Best typing game ever!!!

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2024-03-06, version 5.0.2*

Nice app for learning how to type

### 5/5 — All you need for ten fingers tap typing - just splendid

*2024-01-04, version 5.0.2*

I used to work for newspaper. Although  there were offered regular free taptyping classes I never took one. So when I left that job I was still writing with two index fingers, only. I tried few free online tap typing courses, but there were more commericals on each one of them than real exercises. Finally, I found this one and it’s great. Really. I started taptyping exercises last early December. Today 1.5.2024, after practicing every day for about 15-20minutes, I can typing with all ten fingers at about 25words a minut and getting better. Splendid app.

### 5/5 — A

*2023-11-15, version 5.0.2*

Great but hard to use the keyboard

### 5/5 — Great App…better than what I was expecting.

*2023-04-26, version 5.0.2*

So much for such a tiny one time fee ($3.99).

### 5/5 — nice

*2022-12-04, version 5.0.2*

exactly what I needed, immediately bought the curriculum. Is it possible to make an ipad version? specifically for the one handed mode keyboard

### 5/5 — Great

*2022-11-21, version 5.0.2*

Best typing app I’ve seen for practicing typing skills.
