Description
• Animal Typing is a simple and funny way to learn touch typing for all ages.

** A hardware Bluetooth keyboard is recommended. **

• Also include two sets of 32 lessons designed for kids under 12 years old.
• You could also import your own lessons (add them using iCloud Drive).
• Animated fingers showing the proper typing technique.
• Multiple Keyboard layouts: Qwerty (US/UK), Dvorak, Colemak, Workman, Qwertz (German/Swiss), Azerty (France).
(Kids Lessons are designed for the Qwerty and Dvorak layout.)

Ratings and Reviews
Great app for all ages
I’m an adult learning to type but it was fun to use. The animals were distracting at first, and a little discouraging at first ( the animal turns into slow animals if you type slow, fast if you type fast. For awhile I was a sloth, crawling pitifully across the ground, and I couldn’t go any faster.)
After awhile though, I got used to it, and it was a little bit more fun. The typing method and the example sentences are pretty helpful and converstaional (”I dislike seflies”). Eventually i turned into faster animals, and it’s only been a day I’ve had more success with this than most apps. Thanks for making this!
Good learn to app type for kids
This app is exactly what I was looking for. My only reason for four stars instead of five stars was to say... I have four kids.... it only has a single user setting. So it can't keep track of more than one users progress. Thankfully we do have multiple IPADS (though only a single keyboard that has to be annoyingly re synced to each IPAD each time.)
Developer Response ,
Thank you for the review. In Animal Typing you can create up to 8 user accounts. You have to touch the user icon in the upper left corner of the main screen. When the app starts it should be the user "Default".
Thank you.
Great app and great customer service
My daughters love this app as the scores and animation are a great motivator. Their scores are improving. This is part of our now, at-home-schooling routine. The developer, Corentin, offers amazing response time to my question and sent me a solution within 25 minutes. Again, great app and great customer service. Test it out to convince yourself but be sure to purchase the real or full version (as opposed to the in-app purchase) if you plan to use family share (e.g., two kids with two iPads).
