How this list was compiled: All 100 lines were written for this page on 2026-10-09, in five kinds of 20, each kind split into two or three parts short enough to type in one run; none is copied from another page or book, and no line is also a line of another list on this site. The people named are invented first names, the address in one line uses example.com, and the times, prices and numbers are made up for practice. The kinds are set by rule: lower-case letters and spaces only; capitals and apostrophes and no other mark; lower-case letters with digits; lines that hold a symbol or punctuation mark, 28 characters or fewer; and whole messages of 40 to 70 characters. Lines of the first four kinds are 32 characters or fewer. That an on-screen phone keyboard gives numbers, punctuation and symbols on other layers reached by a switch key, and has settings for auto-correction and predictive text: Apple, iPhone User Guide, Type with the onscreen keyboard on iPhone, https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/type-with-the-onscreen-keyboard-iph3c50f96e/ios (read 2026-10-09). That a keyboard for Android phones may correct misspelled words as you type: Google, Gboard Help, Get word suggestions and fix mistakes, https://support.google.com/gboard/answer/7068415 (read 2026-10-09). Where each mark sits differs from one keyboard to another, so no line says which layer a character is on. What the typing box does with a phone keyboard (it asks for autocorrect, automatic capitals and spell checking to be off, reads a curly quote as a plain one, and takes back a capital that the keyboard put on a lower-case word) is this tool's own behaviour. Licence: own work
How it works
Mobile typing practice on 100 lines written for a touch keyboard: plain letters first, then capitals and apostrophes, numbers, symbols and whole messages. Tap the box and your own keyboard opens. No clock runs.

Typing on phone keyboards, one part at a time
1. Tap the box and type the first line, see you at the station soon. Nine more letters-only lines follow.
2. The run ends with the text, or press Finish sooner: you get words per minute and accuracy.
3. The main button then moves you on, part by part: more letters, capitals and apostrophes, numbers, symbols, whole messages.
Where a touch keyboard slows you down
A phone keyboard keeps numbers and most marks on other layers behind a switch key, so Is it $5 or $15? costs more taps than its 16 characters. The numbers and symbols parts drill that switch there and back. The whole messages are longer lines for anyone who wants to speed up typing on tablet screens too.
The typing box asks your keyboard to turn off autocorrect and automatic capitals. A keyboard that ignores the request will change your result.
A curly apostrophe counts as a plain one, and a capital the keyboard adds by itself to a lower-case word is taken back.
Questions and answers
How do I practice typing on phone keyboards?
Open this page on the phone, tap the box and type with the keyboard you use every day. Nothing is installed. Stay on the letters-only lines until they feel easy, then add one kind at a time.
Is mobile typing scored like typing on a keyboard?
Yes. Words per minute is correct characters divided by five for each minute, and accuracy is correct keystrokes out of all keystrokes. Compare a phone run only with your own earlier phone runs.
Does it work on a tablet?
Yes, with the on-screen keyboard, which has the same kind of layers on a wider screen. With a keyboard case attached you are typing on keys, and the typing practice sentences suit that better.
Is this a typing speed test for mobile?
No, it is untimed practice. For a timed run of common words, the typing speed test works with a phone keyboard too.
