### 4/5 — Good for listening

*2026-07-25, version 9.5.0*

Great app for memorising how the letters sound, but lacks in terms of keying

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-07-11, version 9.5.0*

Good app so far ,  I’m learning.

### 5/5 — Peak

*2026-07-08, version 9.5.0*

Morse code is cool. And surprising easy. Don’t quote me on that.

### 5/5 — Excellent tool for learning Morse code

*2026-07-02, version 9.5.0*

This is the best and most effective way to learn Morse code quickly.  It is also a very fun way to learn.  The Morse Mania app makes learning Morse code a fun game.  I can highly recommend Morse Mania.

### 4/5 — Algorithm needs attention

*2026-07-01, version 9.5.0*

This is a good app for learning the code, but it has a strange quirk. You would expect that each lesson would concentrate on the new characters. Not so. The new characters only get tested towards the end of the level. Subsequently you get lots of repeats which reduces learning.

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2026-06-25, version 9.5.0*

I’m now studying morse code for my job now and it’s the best app to learn Morse code

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-06-24, version 9.5.0*

I’m re visiting morse code and this really helps.

### 5/5 — Fun and easy!

*2026-06-17, version 9.5.0*

I love learning with this app and it’s very easy too! Keep in mind that I purchased pro

### 4/5 — Overall best found

*2026-06-13, version 9.5.0*

I’d like it to feel more 20th century vibes (not in functionality of course lol), maybe have a way to see flashing signal lights as an option like too. Overall best Morse Code app I’ve found!

### 5/5 — I love this concept, suggestion

*2026-06-11, version 9.5.0*

I really love this app for learning more code. One suggestion: the closing rings around the letters are distracting and make me think I’m getting hints about the coming letters. It seems like it’s a sort of lesson progress bar. Can that be an actual progress bar above or somewhere that I’m not directly looking during the lesson?

### 5/5 — Excellent tool

*2026-06-11, version 9.5.0*

For learning Morse code

### 3/5 — Performance

*2026-06-08, version 9.5.0*

Really incompatable with smartphones. Dits and das have a sort of buffering to the input. Making it very difficult to use both iambic and straight key.

### 5/5 — First thirty minutes and already learned half of the alphabet! Even with the free subscription

*2026-06-01, version 9.5.0*

It it just great. There are fun challenges and is very helpful and great for learning Morse code as a 13 year old!

### 5/5 — good app

*2026-05-25, version 9.5.0*

good app easy to use

### 4/5 — Suggestion

*2026-05-23, version 9.5.0*

I would love if you added a toggle for “silent mode”, where you are prompted with visual dots and dashes for those who using the app in an environment where they can’t have their sound on.

### 1/5 — Purchase options dumb

*2026-08-09, version 9.5.0*

Great app, wanted to upgrade to to pro and accidently got the 4$ version, tried to get a refund but it’s impossible so now I have to pay another 9$ for pro. Makes no sense, I’d be okay paying the difference but this is just dumb.

### 1/5 — Immediate paywall

*2026-07-09, version 9.5.0*

There are some very basic and necessary settings you cannot access unless you pay for a premium package. I’d be willing to pay a premium price for premium options, but  not just to access basic settings.

### 1/5 — Just isn’t that great

*2026-07-02, version 9.5.0*

It barely teaches you morse code

### 1/5 — Ripoff

*2026-06-14, version 9.5.0*

Nothing about this app is worth $9.00.  Nothing.

### 1/5 — It sucks

*2026-06-08, version 9.5.0*

The sounds are so quiet to a point that every sound around you has to no be making any sound or use headphones and it glitches between sounds and does both then throws you off then if you click the sound button to quick it has a clicking sound or it bugs out or both.

### 1/5 — The straight key seems to have a delay

*2026-04-12, version 9.5.0*

Ok when learning letters but keying words, the straight key has a delay on my iPhone 15 pro max.  It gives me errors every time due to the delay.  I can key just fine on other keys, but this one is downright frustrating.  I’ve played with the settings trying to get it right but to no avail.  I know I’m new but I can key about 10 wpm on other platforms such as a Morserino. I’m only using my phone and phone speaker, the programmer says this should work but it does not on my phone.

### 1/5 — Maybe a good app

*2026-01-20, version 9.5.0*

Probably a good app. I am visually impaired. The white text on the blue background is impossible for me to read. Can you fix this with increased contrast, please?

### 1/5 — Prompted for a review

*2025-09-19, version 9.5.0*

Was in the middle of a lesson and it popped up some stupid dialog asking me to review it. If I wanted to review it, I would have. Interrupting me between question rounds does not make me enjoy the app more.

### 1/5 — I see the vision

*2025-01-09, version 9.3.1*

why's everyone doing 5 stars. it gives you 6 levels then you have to pay smh

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-01-01, version 9.3.0*

The morse code symbols just showed up as ? For me so it didn’t work at all

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Fun and Challenging

*2026-08-13, version 9.5.0*

User friendly way to learn quickly with support and reminders when needed. The speed isn’t slowed down so you need to learn the proper way from the start but the lessons progress in a way that makes learning fun.

### 5/5 — AMAZING! (FREE VERSION)

*2026-08-11, version 9.5.0*

I NEVER write reviews but for this app I will. This creator is actually genuine. After 30 mins of using the free version (purchase is not needed btw) I wanted to purchase the pro version because the creator actually wants to teach you. No sell you on something! You can tell when an app is good and this one is good. No bs actually good app and good creator! Thank you and pro is $9 for life btw.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-05, version 9.5.0*

Learnt morse code easily

### 5/5 — One Happy Old Ham

*2026-08-04, version 9.5.0*

Learning CW to get passed the 12wpm test I got stuck at about 16 wpm. Morse Mania is getting me through that block

### 5/5 — You won’t be disappointed

*2026-08-02, version 9.5.0*

Begin with this app

### 5/5 — Good to help you learn

*2026-07-29, version 9.5.0*

It helps you learn Morse code and to process it easier.

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-07-28, version 9.5.0*

This app is really good app if you wanna learn Morse code it just helped me so much. It is the perfect app and make sure it goes back to the beginning thing so you don’t forget.

### 5/5 — I love it

*2026-07-26, version 9.5.0*

I thought it was going to be impossible to learn just the alphabet in Morris code but I’m picking out up quickly. Memorizing the pattern of the sound is so much easier than looking at the symbols

### 5/5 — Receive and send to learn!

*2026-07-22, version 9.5.0*

Good tool.  73

### 5/5 — Good game thingy!
