Kami Typing! Typing trainer26.10.8 - App Store

Kami Typing is a Japanese typing game where your typing speed (WPM) decides your rank among the gods. It is not just a speed drill: the faster you type, the higher you rise, from shrine maiden to the highest deity.

Practice flick input, romaji or kana on the software keyboard, or connect an external keyboard on iPhone and iPad. Every run tells you which god you are right now.

▼ Who it is for
・Learners of Japanese who want to master the iPhone Japanese keyboard and flick input
・Anyone who wants faster, more accurate Japanese typing

・Competitors who want to see their name on the worldwide ranking
