It would be nice to know how many words per minute one is averageing. Editing the mistakes doesn’t after which is the most common practice of writing and quick edits; thus requiring a person backspace all the way to the top if they were speed writing and reading the next word was they go. My final criticism is the use of special characters that like an accented e but not telling a person how to hit that combination, yet not allowing you to continue until you fix all the errors. This program is a nice idea but a waste of $1 right now because it doesn’t work properly i.e. not providing instructions to complete the required task before continuing & AVG WPM is not displayed.

First, about the accented e – that is a bug, and we will look into it and fix it as soon as possible.

Regarding the other points:

1. Words per minute or chars per minute: we do not intend to show that information in the near future. As we wrote several times in our previous posts, the point of this app is not to train your speed, but to train your accuracy. The speed will follow, but if we show the information about speed, the users will forget about accuracy. That happened to me many times with many other typing tutors, and that is why ZenTypist was created. The Zen in this app is not knowing your speed.
2. Not being able to do quick edits, that is not being able to click to a certain place in the text or navigate there by using arrows, and then correct the mistakes: again, that would contradict the goal of achieving accuracy and looking at the text, not at the keyboard. When one types, one should not look at the text, and correct one’s mistakes as soon as one makes them. That is, hit the backspace as soon as you mistype something. That way you will be able to achieve accuracy. Which, again, is the whole point.

Again, sorry for the non-roman characters, we shall filter the sentences once again.

Happy typing!
