• Absolutely the best type trainer!

  Alina_Duvall5/20/2012

  Pros

  Nice clean interface, smart app, very effective. Works flawlessly with both Snow Leopard and Lion.

  Cons

  None. I can't think of any drawbacks

  Summary

  Highly recommended for anyone who doesn't care for childish typing games and want to improve one's typing speed. I was reluctant to shift to Lion because I didn't want to lose this app. I am so happy it works with Lion, too. Great app!

• TypeTrainer4Mac Renamed, renumbered

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Found that the numbering for TT4Mac (TypeTrainer4Mac) is whacked! Version that's current is 2.1.1 (March, 2009), and it's been renamed to aTypeTrainer4Mac 2.1.1! The proper version is date as having a creation date of 3/14/09. I'd give it some stars for the reporting it does, none for the docs, -1 for the curious versioning, -2 for the way it's been renamed.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Amazing. Super small footprint: look how small this app is: very efficient, quality programing! I've been holding out for a freeware OS X typing tutor for longer than I care to admit. Now that TT4M is this good, ironically, it very well deserves a donation. You can drag your own .rtf file into it and practice your typing on any document you need to study - Highly useful! Another small suggestion might be to have a toggle to show the letters you need to type instead of the fingering numbers. But the fingering numbers are very cool and donation-ware status is very well deserved. The support for almost any international keyboard layout makes this a truly universal app. Bare bones, rock solid; made my day. I'll be a much better typist in just a few days. Thank-you! sgs, new orleans

• Great little app, bugs apparently now cleared

  mcoad3/27/2006

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This is a fine little app that does just what it promises - no fancy touch-typing course or classes, but a clean, nifty interface providing random keys or your own text to practice with. You can set the keys yourself that you wish to practice with and the app automatically gives you a report each session. It was buggy until now, with a pronounced tendency to freeze randomly, but Valentinâ??s response to reports is second-to-none and in a few days he has ironed this out, producing the latest version, 2.6.6. Highly recommended.

• At last a typing tutor available to us french...

  Summary

  ...people !<br />This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Your software is just great. I've never been able to touch type 'til now and in only two hours I'm already able to type this message without giving a glance at my keyboard. Of course speed is still an issue but this is a good start. Please remove the 1000 characters limitation when importing a text file and offer us the ability to personalise the interface color/sounds in order to make your software even cooler :-) Thanks again and keep up the good work...

• Good, but I need words!

  pusulv6/25/2005

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This was an exellent type-learning-tool! I don't write as fast on a standard, white, Apple keyboard as on my iBook. So now I finaly got a great tool to train up my fingers for fast typing! I need it next year for school purposes... Only negative thing with this great app is that I need more logic than just <em>ghjkl gjsrpod øadfs</em>. It needs support for real words (multilingual, please?).
