Weak-Key Drills and Heatmaps on Type Faster: Fix Errors Before Forcing Speed
After every timed run, Type Faster highlights slow keys and transitions, then routes you into 45-second weak-key drills so you type faster with fewer corrections—not more reckless bursts.
Heatmaps turn one run into a training plan
Per-key and bigram heatmaps show where delay and errors cluster. The sticky result bar can launch a short drill aimed at your worst key so you do not scroll hunting for the next step.
Drills weight characters you miss in real tests, which beats repeating generic home-row ladders when your bottleneck is punctuation or numbers.
Pair typing games with timed tests—breaks reset focus but do not replace measurable practice.
Run the same one-minute test each Friday so Progress charts reflect skill, not caffeine or passage luck.

Pair drills with re-test discipline
Run a drill, wait until the passage feels boringly easy, then repeat the same timed duration you benchmarked earlier.
If accuracy drops when speed rises, step back one session—Type Faster is built for stable net WPM, not single-run spikes.
