You have to type a mixed-string of random characters. You can customize a character set at each of the 30 levels, and thus, you can control the learning process. You can also import texts from TextEdit, from Mail or from your web browser. Each session provides two run logs, one in RTFD format and one in HTML format. By default, you will find them on your desktop. In the Preferences, you can adjust a host of settings to make your typing exercises to your liking.

it has levels, shifts gears automatically when it detects you have passed the level
nice interface,

has a metronome timer that you can click off

I don't think an application is necessary. It is possible to learn touch typing online. Go to: http://www.sense-lang.org/typing/
