Is texting WPM the same as keyboard WPM?
No. The input method is different, so compare phone scores with phone scores.

Mobile Texting Speed Test
The Mobile Texting Speed Test measures phone texting speed separately from keyboard typing speed. Phone typing uses thumbs, autocorrect, a smaller keyboard, and short-message habits, so it deserves a separate mode.
The page includes labels for Phone Texting Test and Keyboard Typing Test, tracks WPM and accuracy, detects mobile-style devices when possible, and saves a best score locally in the browser.
Why texting speed matters
Remote work, customer communication, scheduling, and quick admin updates often happen from phones. A person may be fast on a keyboard but slower on mobile, or the reverse. This test helps visitors understand that difference.
Phone texting is affected by thumb movement, screen size, autocorrect habits, punctuation access, and whether the user is switching between apps. Short work-style messages such as appointment confirmations, customer replies, scheduling updates, and remote work notes are better texting samples than long desktop paragraphs.
For data entry jobs, use the keyboard typing test and data entry practice modes because employers usually test physical keyboard speed. Use this mobile test when phone communication speed matters separately.
