I can get around 75-80 WPM tap-typing on my iPhone. No weird grip.

Though, to measure that I had to make my own typing test, because after trying multiple websites and native apps, I couldn’t find any tests that didn’t disable autocorrect. Accuracy without autocorrect may be interesting to measure, but in real-world typing, I intentionally sacrifice accuracy for speed and let autocorrect pick up the slack. A test of practical typing speed should take that into account.

If anyone else wants to try, here is my very barebones test:

Ah excellent, I agree most type sites are terrible for mobile. This is much appreciated
