Bug fix for text scrolling. The previous 2.5.2 update extended the range of the audio filter setting.

2.5.2

February 15, 2018

Extended the frequency range of the narrow-band audio filter. Added a warning when suspected noise is being decoded due to non-optimal settings. Added a switch to disable the 20 minute auto-off timer. Minor audio bug fixes.

2.5.1

November 25, 2017

Updated for iOS 11 and the iPhone X.

2.4.1

November 13, 2015

This update includes bug fixes for running on the newest iPad devices. If you have successfully used this app to decode Morse Code, please take the time to give us a nice review: it really helps. Updates to previous reviews are also highly appreciated. For those users who have encountered problems decoding Morse Code with this app, we have updated and expanded the instructions for using the Morse Decoder app. Please check and configure the settings as needed for your audio input.

2.3.3

March 18, 2015

Added improvements to Morse Code decoding sensitivity and startup speed.

2.3.2

November 5, 2014

Bug fix for an issue with starting the app in landscape orientation on some iPads. Previous update 2.3.0: Added support for iOS 8 and the iPhone 6 / 6 Plus. * If the decoder doesn't start recognizing Morse code, please see the new help file on the HotPaw website for important hints on adjusting the radio sidetone frequency, the iOS device microphone position in the room, and the initial WPM.

2.3.0

October 31, 2014

Bug fixes for iOS 8 and the display of some unicode characters. Added support for iPhone 6 and 6 Plus size devices. * There may be an issue with starting this update in landscape orientation on some iPads. A fix is in progress. * Please see the new help file on the HotPaw website for some hints if you can't get the decoder to detect any Morse Code in your audio input. Too high a tone or echoes in the room environment can cause problems with detecting any code.

2.2.6

April 24, 2014

Added Dynamic Text font sizing (set in the Settings app:General:Text Size). Fixed a iOS 7 Microphone Permission issue.

Description of MorseDecoder

The HotPaw Morse Code Decoder translates Morse Code sound into text. Just use the microphone or headset input on your iPhone or iPad for the audio signal input, and watch decoded text appear. The Morse Code Decoder includes both an automatic decoding mode, plus manual controls to allow the decoding of weaker signals in noise and QRM. Manually adjustable parameters include the frequency of the audio filter, the WPM dot/dash speed used for detecting characters, the threshold level of background noise, and whether Farnsworth timing is to be used for detecting spaces between individual characters. The Morse Code Decoder includes a built-in spectrogram to help determine the audio frequency of the Morse Code tones. Use the optional narrow-band DSP audio filter to help filter out background noise. The audio filter works for tone frequencies from 300 to 2400 Hz. Please do not try to decode tones outside this range. The Morse code WPM (words per minute) detection speed is automatically adaptive from about 8 to 40 WPM, and can be locked to the current estimated WPM dot speed. You can also manually set the WPM code speed if the automatic speed detection guesses incorrectly. A QRQ High Speed WPM mode setting allows decoding much higher WPM speeds in the range of 30 to 80 WPM. Please aim your iPhone microphone at the Morse Code sound source so that the iPhone's noise cancelling microphone doesn't cancel it out. You can see if sound is getting to the iPhone by seeing a peak in the spectrum display. Please use the manual settings if automatic decoding does not adjust to the frequency, WPM. or background noise threshold level properly. Decoding will not work if the audio filter or WPM are set incorrectly, or there is a lot of background noise or room echoes above the threshold setting. Please see the help file on the HotPaw website for hints as to how to solve decoding issues.

Looks great but doesn’t work

I bought this app five years ago. I occasionally start it up to see if it finally works. It still thinks everything decodes a an “e.” If you are going to charge a premium fee for an app, it should provide the promised service. This app fails to do so and I cannot recommend it to anyone.

Works but it could be better

It works, not with weak signals though. I use it when people try to ragchew with me and it freezes from time to time. I’m using it on an iPhone 14with lots of storage and I remove apps from memory when I’m not using. The app freezes not because of the device or lack of memory, it freezes because of a stack overflow.

I couldn’t find better decoder app on iOS yet.
