Practise Typing Tests Extension

The Practise Typing Tests Extension from Polarity Technologies Ltd. is promoted as a tool that can help PC users improve their typing skills. The Practise Typing Tests Extension is provided to users free of charge and can be download from the Chrome Web Store — Chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/practise-typing-tests/jnacleobikdamejbadlhbanochdggecj. The app supports only Chromium-based Internet clients as of the time of writing, but the company may release adapted versions for Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer, as it has been known to do in the past. The services of the Practise Typing Tests are provided via a new tab.

The Practise Typing Tests Extension changes the new tab in Chrome to an offline HTML page, which appears in the Omnibox as 'chrome-extension://jnacleobikdamejbadlhbanochdggecj/tab.html.' The new tab by the Practise Typing Tests includes a search bar powered by Yahoo and links to resources on Typingstudy.com, Typing.com, Dictionary.com and App.typingfanatic.com/lessons. You should note that the Practise Typing Tests Extension from Polarity Technologies Ltd. is an ad-supported product and it does not provide resources on its own. Instead, the Practise Typing Tests Extension takes control of your new tab page and shows links to third-party sites. Polarity is well-known for creating extensions like the Package Track and the Test My Speeds that incorporate code from unaffiliated companies to attract users to their products. Polarity Technologies Ltd. is an advertising company that publishes browser extensions on the Chrome Web Store and uses them to collect information like your IP address, software configuration, frequently visited pages and preferred content on the Web. The data is used by Polarity to claim ad revenue via Yahoo Ads.

PC users should take into consideration that the Practise Typing Tests Extension is deemed as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that causes browser redirects to Yahoo. If you are not a fan of Yahoo, you may want to remove the Practise Typing Tests Extension, bookmark the pages linked by the Practise Typing Tests New Tab, and clean leftover files with the help of a reliable anti-spyware scanner.
