I can just press <space> and it counts my keypresses. It doesn't look like it's actually validating I'm typing the correct thing.

Edit: hold on, that was me being dumb. The actual bug is that if I press "Caps lock" (because I type capitalized letters by quickly typing Caps lock + Letter + Caps lock) it incorrectly counts it as a keypress.

Maybe the UI could be clearer; if the text has a red background, that means it's wrong and you need to backspace. Correct text will have a blue background.

Sorry about the caps lock, will add! Currently only checking for the shift key itself. Good catch, thank you.

Ok, caps should work now! Please let me know if you're still having issues.

That worked perfectly, thanks :). That's a really nice app
