Description
Most typing trainers are either bare-bones speed tests or over-gamified with XP and leaderboards. SmartType is neither: a clean, SaaS-styled practice tool built around two modes. Sprint Mode is a focused, timed session with full WPM, accuracy, and consistency tracking plus a per-key heatmap. Hacker Mode is a relaxed, no-limit mode styled like a movie hacking scene that quietly tracks your real accuracy underneath. No fake game mechanics, no signup required — free and instant.
