Mochi Type • Typing Practice

Mochi Type is a modern typing trainer with two ways in: a guided course that builds your touch-typing from the very first key, and free practice on the real words you actually use — in your own language, on your own keyboard layout, with progress you can measure.

HOW MOCHI WORKS

Mochi has two sides — Learn and Practice. Start from zero with the course, jump straight into Practice, or move between them whenever you like.

LEARN — the guided course

- Unlocks new keys a few at a time, in a deliberate, frequency-based order — never random.

- Early lessons drill the commonest letter combinations; as more letters unlock, they grow into whole words, most frequent first.

- Then layers in capitals, punctuation, symbols, and numbers, until you've covered the whole keyboard, not just the easy half.

- Keeps repeating what you've just learned until it's automatic, and ends in one Final Test with Pass, Honors, and Perfect tiers.

PRACTICE — real words, right away

- Type from each language's most popular word lists — the 200 most common words up to 50,000.

- Or switch to movie quotes, book quotes, or a misspelled-words drill.

- Smart Drill spots the keys you miss most and mixes extra practice for them into your words.

- Go by the clock or by word count — your choice.

WHO MOCHI IS FOR

For anyone who wants to type faster and more accurately: complete beginners learning touch-typing from zero, coders sharpening muscle memory, and anyone moving to a new layout.

It's a great first trainer for kids, too — every word set is age-appropriate (rated 4+), with no profanity or adult content.

And it's friendly for older typists, or anyone who finds most apps too small: the typing text scales large, the on-screen keyboard is big and clearly outlined, and themes are tuned for legible contrast.

WHAT YOU GET

- Your real keyboard layout, built in

48 layouts ship with the app — QWERTY, AZERTY, QWERTZ, Dvorak, Colemak, Cyrillic, plus regional and programmer variants — and the on-screen keyboard matches what you type on.

- An on-screen keyboard that guides you

A large, scalable keyboard sits under your text, always showing the next key and finger to use — so your eyes stay on the screen, not your hands.

- Your language, or your second one

Practice in any of 21 languages — build speed in your native tongue, or learn a second one like Spanish or English.

- Practice on your own texts

Paste any passage, or drop in a .txt, .md, .rtf, or .epub — an article, a book, your notes — and type it. Mochi cleans it up for typing, remembers your place, and lets you go for as long as you like.

- Deep, honest statistics

Per-key analytics show which letters cost you speed and accuracy — a complete per-keystroke record, never an estimate. Heatmaps, a calendar, streaks, and trend charts make your daily habit visible.

- Type at a size that's comfortable

Five monospace typing fonts like Fira Code and OpenDyslexic, scalable to any size.

- Mechanical keyboard feel, on demand

22 sound packs of authentic switch recordings, separate press and release per key — for rhythm and muscle memory, or off for silence.

- Sixteen themes, tuned for legibility

16 hand-tuned color themes, including community favorites — and you can switch theme, layout, sound, or font anytime without losing your history.

- Practice as a family

Share one Mac without sharing one set of stats — separate profiles keep each person's progress, personal bests, theme, sound, and color their own.

- Your data stays yours

No ads, no third-party tracking, no account. Your history lives on your Mac and can sync privately across your Macs with iCloud.
