Summary: Morse code encoding and sharing works on all devices, however for Flashlight and Morse Code transmission using Flashlight you will need iPhone 4 and newer.


Morse code is a method of transmitting textual information as a series of on-off tones, lights, or clicks that can be directly understood by a skilled listener or observer without special equipment. The International Morse Code encodes the Roman alphabet, the Arabic numerals and a small set of punctuation and procedural signals as standardized sequences of short and long signals called "dots" and "dashes" respectively, or "dits" and "dahs".

### 5/5 — I miss this app

*2024-09-12, version 1.5*

I used to use this on my iPhone 5,  sure wish it was updated for iOS 15 so i could use it on my iPhone 7 plus

### 1/5 — NEEDS UPDATED!!! ASAP PLEASE UPDATE

*2018-01-19*

NEEDS UPDATED!!! ASAP PLEASE UPDATE

### 5/5 — A very clever app!

*2017-10-14*

I love this app! Can you update it for the new iOS11?!

### 1/5 — App works once and never again

*2017-08-20, version 1.5*

App works once after download and fails every other time.

### 5/5 — Does as advertised

*2016-06-07*

It translates text into morse code and gives you the option to transmit the code via flashlight. Few bugs, no in-app purchase bull, no nonsense.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2016-02-26*

Doesn't work. All it does is translate whatever you write to written code. No flash light at all.

### 5/5 — -.-- .- -.--

*2016-01-29*

I don't know why the other reviews say that the light doesn't work. It works fine for me. My only complaint is that the messages could go faster.

### 4/5 — Mr

*2016-01-13, version 1.5*

Good app. Could do with clicks with transmission.

### 1/5 — Currently Usless

*2016-01-06*

I couldn't tell you if this app was capable of translating text into morse, or if it was able to flash morse through the flashlight. Anytime I attempt to type something, the app pulls up the keyboard and magnifying glass, then  crashes.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2015-12-28*

I tried typing a phrase in the morse code translator and the keyboard wouldn't even work.
