Typing with audio dictation
Listen to a word or a longer passage, type what you hear, and repeat it as often as you need. Adjust the voice and playback speed. Once you are comfortable, try eyes-closed practice with audio guidance.
Read or listen to a task, then perform its key combination in the focused exercise area. Get immediate feedback, use a hint when needed, and build recall through repetition. Protected browser and system commands use a written answer or on-screen keys.
Practise in English, German, French or Italian, with the available regional variants. In Free text, choose System, Practice language and Keyboard separately. The alphabet trainer has a combined language and layout menu; Swiss and German QWERTZ are distinct.
Use spoken prompts, adjustable text size, high contrast and word-based sessions without a countdown. Explore the audio and display controls and read our current accessibility limitations before choosing a setup.
* In Free text, available layouts follow the selected system. Practice language and keyboard are independent; AlphaType does not change your device’s layout. Explore keyboard layouts →
