Type It is the full proof that your passage sticks. Easy checks the first letter of each word, Medium gives a first-letter hint while you type the full word, and Hard asks for every full word with no hints. A wrong entry vibrates the device and marks that word in review, so you know exactly where to fix before you move to Speak.
Quick start (2 minutes)
- Open your Memorization and choose Type It.
- Choose a level: Easy for first letters, Medium for full words with first-letter hints, or Hard for full words without hints.
- Tap anywhere in the text area to focus the hidden cursor. On Medium and Hard, press Space after each full word.
- Watch the progress bar move as you advance. If the device vibrates, you mistyped—retap and continue.
- Finish the passage to see accuracy and a review of every word you touched.
What Type It measures
- Difficulty-matched accuracy: Easy compares the initial you type with each word. Medium and Hard compare the complete word; punctuation is ignored.
- Visible streak: Once you type a word, it appears in the flow. Mistakes show in red with an underline so you can spot problem spots on the fly.
- Instant feedback: Wrong letters or words trigger haptic feedback for 200ms; keep typing to move forward or retap if you lost focus.
- End-of-pass review: The Stats page shows your percent correct plus the passage with misses underlined. Use the back arrow to rerun the same chunk immediately.
A tight Type It routine
- Prime on a paragraph: Select a short section (1–3 sentences). Run one slow pass for clean accuracy and to learn how the cursor moves.
- Hold 95%+: Do a second pass at normal pace. Aim for minimal vibration; if you get more than three red underlines, rerun the paragraph once more.
- Stretch to the next line: Add the following sentence and repeat. Gradually chain paragraphs until you clear the entire Memorization without underlines.
- Lock pace: Finish with one pass at your speaking tempo. If accuracy drops, shorten the chunk and rebuild speed.
Habits that keep you accurate
- Tap to refocus: If the keyboard closes or you switch apps, tap the text area to bring the hidden cursor back before typing.
- Use haptics as a brake: Each buzz is a cue to slow down for the next few words and re-enunciate them in your head.
- Chunk smartly: Smaller sections give you faster feedback cycles and better accuracy; expand only after two clean passes in a row.
- Check the review: Scan the underlined words on the Stats page, then replay that line immediately. It keeps fixes local instead of restarting the whole passage.
Pair Type It with other games
- Order boot camp: Tap to Reveal → First Letter → Type It to confirm you can type what you hear.
- Detail cleanup: Tap to Reveal on tough phrases, then Type It to ensure the letters trigger the full line.
- Speaking prep: Slider to lower visibility, then Type It, then Speak to rehearse aloud with confidence.
Troubleshooting
- The cursor stopped moving: Tap the text area to refocus, then retype the current letter or word; the caret should reappear.
- Frequent vibrations on one name or number: Say the full word quietly before typing it. Repeat that line twice, then continue.
- Accuracy stuck below 80%: Drop to a smaller chunk and slow your typing pace. Two clean runs at 95%+ beat one shaky pass of the whole passage.
- Mixed punctuation trips you up: Ignore commas and quotes. Type It checks letters and words rather than punctuation.
