TypeByFaith.com is a Bible engagement web application that combines typing, reading, memorization, daily prayer practice, and rhythm-based worship music with Scripture.

Yes, most features require a free account. You can try a demo with Psalm 23 before signing up to experience the typing interface. Once logged in, you'll access verse-by-verse typing, Reading Mode, Memory Verse, Prayers, Rhythm Mode, and progress tracking. Premium unlocks additional features.

TypeByFaith.com currently offers the King James Version (KJV) as the default translation, plus the American Standard Version (ASV). Both are public domain translations in the United States. You can switch translations from the verse/chapter selection modal, and your preference is saved automatically. More translations are planned as the platform grows.

Click on "Verse-By-Verse" in the navigation menu. From there, you can choose to select a specific verse or use the "Random Verse" option to get a random passage for typing practice.

We calculate typing speed in words per minute (WPM) based on the standard definition of a word as 5 characters. Accuracy is calculated as the percentage of correctly typed characters compared to the total characters in the passage.

The free tier includes verse-by-verse typing (5 per day), timed tests (1 per day), guided lessons (5 per day), Reading Mode, Memory Verse (5 verses), Prayers (1 per day), Rhythm Mode (1 play per day on all 40 songs), and Race Mode (1 race per day).

Lifetime Premium members have permanent access and are never charged again.

Most TypeByFaith.com features require a physical keyboard, but our Reading Mode is fully mobile-friendly — no keyboard needed! Reading Mode is free for all logged-in users and lets you read Scripture with auto-scroll, time tracking, and word highlighting on any phone or tablet. For typing features, we recommend using a desktop computer or laptop.

Reading Mode is a free feature for all logged-in users, designed for focused, immersive Bible reading. Scripture auto-scrolls with word-by-word highlighting at your chosen speed (100-600 WPM). Track your daily reading time, adjust the font size, toggle highlighting on or off, and navigate seamlessly between chapters, books, and testaments. It's our first fully mobile-friendly feature — works on phones and tablets without a keyboard. Perfect for traditional Bible readers who want a distraction-free digital reading experience.

Prayers is a guided prayer feature that helps you build a daily habit grounded in Scripture. Free users can complete up to 1 prayer per day, and Premium members have unlimited daily prayers. Prayer completions are tracked in your activity stats.

Yes! We offer a dedicated School Dashboard for Christian schools and private institutions. Teachers can manage rosters, assign curriculum (Verses, Chapters, Prayers, Tests, Rhythm Mode), and track grading automatically. We support schools of all sizes, up to 1,000+ seats. For requirements larger than 1,000 seats, please contact us for a custom enterprise arrangement.

Absolutely. Our school plans start at just 4 seats, making them perfect for homeschool families or small co-ops. You get the same powerful "Teacher Dashboard" features—grading, assignments, and report cards—at an affordable price tailored for smaller groups.

The Teacher Dashboard is your command center. You can generate student accounts in bulk (no emails required), create assignments with due dates, view a live gradebook, and print PDF report cards. You can specificy exactly what students should type—from specific verses to entire chapters—and let the system handle the grading.

Yes. We take student privacy seriously. Student accounts created via the School Dashboard do not require email addresses. They log in with a unique School Code, Username, and Password. This ensures full compliance with COPPA and keeps your students' identity secure.

Rhythm Mode is a musical typing game where you type falling notes in time with worship music. Think of classic rhythm games—but instead of a controller, you use your keyboard. Each song features original worship music, and after completing the gameplay, you listen to scripture audio passages that inspired the song.

To fully complete a song in Rhythm Mode, you need to finish both parts: (1) Play through the rhythm game by typing the falling notes in time with the music, and (2) Listen to the scripture audio passage that inspired the song. This keeps you connected to God's Word while enjoying the gameplay experience. Premium members have unlimited plays daily.

Type By Faith features original worship music created with AI technology, with each song inspired by foundational scripture passages. This allows us to provide high-quality worship music without licensing costs, keeping TypeByFaith.com affordable and accessible to everyone.

Rhythm Mode features 8 story-driven stages with 39 total worship songs. All songs are accessible to free users (1 play per day). Premium members enjoy unlimited plays across all stages and songs.

Each song offers Easy, Medium, and Hard difficulty modes. Our proprietary difficulty rating system uses half-star precision (0.5 to 5.0 stars) based on note density, hand-switching patterns, rapid burst intensity, and key pattern complexity. Choose the difficulty that matches your skill level!

For the best audio experience, we recommend using Chrome or a Chromium-based browser (like Edge or Brave). If you're on Safari or Firefox and experience timing issues, switching browsers often resolves them. Make sure your volume is up and no other audio is playing.

Race Mode is a competitive typing feature where you race against Bible character opponents like Moses, King David, Queen Esther, Apostle Paul, Mary, Abraham, Ruth, and Peter. The opponent adapts to your typing speed using our "Elastic Rival" system, so races are competitive regardless of whether you type 20 WPM or 100 WPM. Collect power-up items during the race to boost yourself or slow down your opponent.

Free users can race 1 time per day. Premium members have unlimited races with no daily limit. Race Mode is available in both verse-by-verse and timed test modes.

Mystery boxes appear throughout the passage as you type. When you type past one, you collect a random power-up item. Press Spacebar to use your item. Available items include:

• Speed Boost: Auto-types a small burst of characters for you
• Rocket Boost: Auto-types a bigger burst (great for catching up)
• Freeze: Stops your opponent from moving briefly
• Sands of Time: Slows your opponent's typing speed
• Knockback: Removes some of your opponent's progress
• Shield: Blocks the next Freeze, Slow, or Knockback attack

The item system uses "rubber-banding" — the person behind gets better items, keeping races exciting until the finish line.

Our "Elastic Rival" system tracks your typing speed in real-time and adjusts the opponent accordingly. The race has three phases:

• Opening (0-25%): Opponent starts slower to build your confidence
• Challenge (25-70%): Dynamic back-and-forth tension
• Sprint (70-100%): Dramatic finish with suspenseful outcomes

The opponent also has human-like behaviors like brief hesitations and surges, making it feel like you're racing a real person. Races are designed to be close, so every race feels competitive.

Click the checkered flag icon next to the settings gear on any typing page. Choose your character, then choose who you want to race against. Click "Begin Race" and get ready for the countdown!

Shepherd's Hub is a premium feature for personal discipleship groups—perfect for youth leaders, Bible study groups, and mentors. Create a group and track your members' Bible typing progress. As a shepherd, you can monitor member streaks, verses completed, reading time, WPM, accuracy, and VOTD completion—all from one dashboard. Members can join groups for free from their Account page; only the shepherd leader needs premium to create and manage groups. (Looking for school classroom management? See our School Licenses.)

Go to the Shepherd's Hub page, enter a group name, choose your enrollment mode (auto-approve or manual approval), and click "Create Group." You'll receive a unique access code to share with your group members.

Members can join from their Account page by entering your group's access code. If you've enabled auto-approve, they'll join instantly. With manual approval, you'll review each request before they're added to your group.

You can view each member's current streak, verses typed today and this week, reading time, typing speed (WPM), accuracy percentage, VOTD completion, and last activity time. All stats update in real-time as members practice.

Shepherd's Hub is for personal discipleship groups—youth leaders, Bible study groups, and mentors who want to track their group members' Bible typing progress. The leader needs a Premium subscription, but members can join for free using their own email accounts. It's designed for informal, volunteer-led groups.

School Licenses are for Christian schools, homeschool co-ops, and classroom settings. Teachers create and manage student accounts (no email required—COPPA compliant for children under 13). Students log in with a School Code + Username + Password. School Licenses include a full assignment system (assign Bible chapters, verses, prayers, timed tests, lessons, memory verses, and rhythm songs), class organization, progress reports, and all students receive unlimited Premium features automatically.

Key differences:

• Account creation: Shepherd's Hub members sign up themselves with email; School students are created by teachers (no email needed)
• Login method: Shepherd's Hub uses regular login; Schools use School Code + Username + Password
• Cost: Shepherd's Hub is included with Premium ($4.99/mo); School Licenses are per-seat ($2.40–$28.80/student/year based on volume)
• Assignments: Shepherd's Hub tracks progress only; Schools can assign specific work with due dates
• Best for: Shepherd's Hub for church groups and mentorship; School Licenses for classrooms and curriculum

Daily streaks track your consecutive days of typing practice. Complete any typing activity (verse, chapter, timed test, lesson, memory verse, prayer session, or rhythm mode song) to maintain your streak. The fire badge in the navbar shows your current streak count, and clicking it reveals your weekly progress calendar. You'll earn milestone celebrations at 7, 14, 30, 50, 100, and 365 days!

Each day features a curated verse with a spiritual theme like "Joyful Thanksgiving" or "Divine Guidance." When you sign in, a banner appears below the navigation inviting you to type today's verse. Click the banner to go directly to that verse. Once you complete it (or dismiss the banner), it won't reappear until the next day's verse is ready.

Consistent practice is key to improving typing speed. Try to practice for at least 15-20 minutes daily with TypeByFaith.com. Focus on accuracy first, and speed will naturally follow. Also, maintain proper typing posture and hand positioning.

Yes! Many users report that typing Scripture regularly helps them memorize verses more effectively. The physical act of typing engages multiple learning pathways in your brain, reinforcing memory retention.

Audio Sync is a reinforcement tool available for the Book of Psalms. It synchronizes spoken audio with the text word-by-word. In Typing Mode, it acts as a pacer: the audio pauses when you stop typing and resumes when you continue, helping you stay focused and internalize the scripture. In Reading Mode, it plays continuously while highlighting the text, allowing for an immersive read-along experience.

Verse-by-Verse mode (free) lets you type individual Bible verses one at a time, with a daily limit of 5 verses. Chapter-by-Chapter mode (Premium) allows you to type entire chapters in one session and removes daily limits on verse-by-verse practice. Both modes track your WPM, accuracy, and progress.

Bookmarks let you save your favorite Bible passages for quick access. While typing, click the bookmark icon to save the current verse or chapter to a category. You can create multiple categories (like "Favorites", "Memory Verses", or "Study Topics") to organize your bookmarks. You can also share your bookmark collections with others using a share token, and import collections shared by friends or study groups.

TypeByFaith.com works with all modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. For the best experience, we recommend keeping your browser updated to the latest version.

No, TypeByFaith.com requires an internet connection to load Scripture, save progress, and stream audio for Rhythm Mode and Memory Verse.
