Improve Typing Skills and Learn New Keyboard Layouts with KeyKey Typing Trainer [Sponsor]

KeyKey is a minimalistic touch typing trainer for Mac. It’s suitable for beginners who want to learn basic touch typing skills, as well as for advanced users seeking to master alternative layouts like COLEMAK or DVORAK.

Touch typing is not about key arrangement, as you might believe. It’s about training your muscle memory, making your fingers remember the micro-motions unique to each language. KeyKey knows the most popular letter combinations and words of your native language and utilizes them in lesson generation.

Lessons are presented in several languages, including English, Spanish, German and French, along with the popular layouts for these languages: QWERTY, COLEMAK, DVORAK, AZERTY, QWERTZ (Swiss) and BÉPO. Lessons can be changed both automatically and manually, and you can add punctuation marks, capitalization, and numbers to each of them.

In the near future, KeyKey will add separate lessons for programmers to practice touch typing on real code examples from some popular programming languages.

If you are ready to master the art of typing without typos while never looking at your keyboard, get KeyKey on the App Store, or try it for free in Setapp.
