I recommend looking at hello Morse before/while you do this. One problem however, is that you can go back levels to review. While that is nice, it doesn’t let you go back to where you originally were. So, I didn’t know what the button did, so I pressed it a bunch and now I have to redo a bunch of lessons. Other than that, it’s pretty good. ### 4/5 — A “Glitch“ *2023-07-05* I used to be obsessed with trying to learn morse code. It started by looking at pictures, remembering each letter, doing each letter with a flashlight, then putting the letters together to make words and eventually sentences. This got so confusing so quick though, so as the desperate person I was, I downloaded their other morse app, but that‘s not the topic. Anyway, I downloaded this app to find other Morse Code fans and to send and decode morse messages. It was pretty fun to say the least. I also played around in the practice area. But then my game randomly stopped and put me in the type and convert it into morse area in the middle of a word and played this very long note. This was very irritating to my ears so closed the tab. It stopped for not even a second and continued on their other app they made, so I had to close that tab too. Otherwise from that, this game was very enjoyable. fun, and helped me learn a bit more morse. I recommend this app to anyone who love morse or want to learn more morse. ### 5/5 — You too can learn Morse code! *2022-11-26* Any skill takes practice. HOW you practice makes the difference. If you are willing to invest the time to learn a new language, you should find a great teacher. Morse Mania showed me the way by utilizing many different controls to perfect my style, or “Fist”. The app allows me to define what I need to succeed and grow and Excel! I started with the free version and wore it out. I was hesitant because cw seemed hard to learn. After I completed the free introduction it was obvious the subsequent pay versions were absolutely essential to succeed as I was advancing so quickly. ( I considered them CHEAP!) I will suggest: 1. Try the free version first. You will know then if you need the balance of tools. 2. I started on a standard “straight” key. I heard/ was advised that one should use an iambic key to get over 20WPM. I am almost at that point, and considering what the cost and time investment will be to start over with the iambic key. I will ask my club for advice. DO learn CW and Prosper! ### 5/5 — great fun *2022-08-15* ich love das morse und ich habe eine grosse wilhelm ### 5/5 — Really fun and well made *2022-05-09* This is cool, i like it :) ### 4/5 — Good app *2022-05-04, version 3.0.2* Morse code is hard :( ### 5/5 — Community *2022-03-31* Even though I’ve had it for a few hours, I’m glad I get some practice with this, and we get into some pretty good topics ### 4/5 — User name *2022-02-22, version 2.1.0* Why can two users have the same name? That‘s very confusing. Great app otherwise. ### 4/5 — A Useful App *2021-11-28, version 1.0* I started using Morse Mania (same Developer) and then progressed to Morse Chat. This App definitely complements the other. It is nice to utilise the different “Public Rooms” and customising the settings, in what is a mostly positive environment. My contacts (albeit short) so far, have been rewarding and is helping me with my CW endeavours. You can also set up “Private Rooms “ should you wish to communicate with one or more guests; or to practice sending in private. This is another useful tool for those interested in learning (RX & TX) Morse Code. I use both Apps almost daily and will continue to do so until I feel that I am ready to tackle a QSO on the Amateur bands. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Idk what’s happening *2025-03-25, version 3.4.0* The way the app is designed doesn’t make much sense to me ### 1/5 — Uhhhh *2023-09-06* Don’t want pay premium **Developer response:** Hi, with the free version, you can chat with people from all over the world in Morse code in Public Rooms, join Private Rooms and text individuals with direct messages. I believe those are the main functions of Morse Chat and that’s why I made them free. The premium version gives you options such as auto-translation but they’re not essential. ### 1/5 — App does not play sound *2021-11-03* When I try to play a message all it says is to “Please enable sound” with no option to do so. Other apps play sound with no issues. **Developer response:** Hi friend from the US, I received some complaints about the sound recently and they all fixed the problem by switching off the silent mode. On iPhones, there’s a small button on the side of the phone (Ring/Silent switch is on the left-hand side of your iPhone) which you can switch up and down. Once the switch is on the upper side, you should see on the screen that the "silent mode” is off, and you should be able to hear the sounds then. I hope that helps. ### 1/5 — Fix sound *2021-10-20* iOS 15 iPhone 11 Pro Max Flashlight and vibration work. No sounds during playback. Fix sound for full stars. **Developer response:** Hi Timothy, I received some complaints about the sound recently and they all fixed the problem by switching off the silent mode. On iPhones, there’s a small button on the side of the phone (Ring/Silent switch is on the left-hand side of your iPhone) which you can switch up and down. Once the switch is on the upper side, you should see on the screen that the "silent mode” is off, and you should be able to hear the sounds then. I hope that helps. ### 2/5 — Not Impressed *2024-01-20* Good concept but keying features are weird when using the on screen key. I’ve tried the straight key as well as keyer. If I could connect an outboard key (my own) it would be 100% better. I’ve been hamming for 59 years and have an extra class. My code speed is in the 25-30wpm. I use straight key, electronic keyers, and bugs. Hopefully there will be improvements. ### 2/5 — Проблемы с премиум *2024-01-06* Купил премиум, но через день подписка слетела. Разработчики верните подписку или деньги! **Developer response:** Hi, we tested the in-app purchase and it should work without any problems. It’s very strange that the premium purchase was cancelled for no reason. We certainly didn’t cancel your purchase because we don’t have the power to do so. I strongly recommend you to get in contact with Apple if you didn’t cancel the purchase yourself. Best regards. ### 3/5 — Hambreados *2025-12-22, version 3.4.5* Buena la app pero tienes que pagar para desbloquear funciones importantes ### 3/5 — Good but some problems *2024-05-09, version 3.3.1* Hello.. why isn’t it possible to delete one letter if I make a direct chat with someone ? I can only delete the whole sentence .. that is annoying ### 4/5 — Securick *2025-12-05* This is great, exactly what I have been looking for… ### 4/5 — It Would be Better *2025-04-13* It would be better, almost perfect, if you could hook an external key to the iPad or iPhone for sending. I have used “VBAND” web site using a iPhone 16 and a key. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — best app ever *2026-04-25* before this app i had no purpose in life ### 5/5 — Excellent *2025-10-19* I never write reviews… but I am absolutely obsessed with this app! The learning course was extremely helpful. I really enjoy chatting with people from around the world! I even made a friend here! :) Huge thanks to the creator for brightening my life with this app! ### 5/5 — Could be better *2025-04-19* Just remove the need to pay for words and phrases and then I will give you a better review ### 5/5 — Great for learning Morse code *2024-11-30* I’ve been using this app for one day, and I’ve already gotten better at Morse code. Talking to people is also just fun, and it’s also fun to have to decipher all of the messages when you’re starting out using Morse code. ### 5/5 — UPDATE!(Please reply) *2024-03-20* I’m trying to send a message and it keeps giving me weird letters I keep tapping the right ones but it comes up a different letter every time. Need the bugs and fixes to work out. I paid too lol. Other then that great! ### 5/5 — 재미있어요 *2023-08-19* 굿굿 ### 5/5 — Ótimo! *2023-06-17, version 3.3.1* Agora só conversarei assim com meus amigos😂 ### 5/5 — ok *2023-05-21, version 3.3.1* great app 10/10 love this app would kiss this app on the lips if it had lips ### 5/5 — Awesome App *2023-02-28, version 3.3.1* This app is so useful for CW learners. Thank your for this amazing piece of software. ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2023-02-23* It was exactly how it said it was. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
