touch-typed
Typed without looking
Touch-typed is the past tense of touch-type, meaning to type without looking at the keyboard.
The skill relies on muscle memory—fingers know key positions through practice rather than sight.
She touch-typed the entire report while watching the screen.
The method contrasts with hunt-and-peck typing, where eyes search for each key.
