C’est long et fastidieux... perso  j’préfère passer par un traducteur.

### 5/5 — Très bien

*2022-03-19*

Super! Très bien marche parfaitement, en revanche je n’arrive pas à écrire en morse est il traduit... où se situe la notice?

### 3/5 — Good transmitter but missing a loop option

*2022-02-25, version 1.2.5*

Would be greatly appreciated if the developer could add the option to loop a message to transmit

### 3/5 — A bit with the Morse into Text

*2022-02-22, version 1.2.5*

I have trouble using the audio mode because I can only get e. Also the numbers are not working. Also, what is the dash? Is it -, _, or =?

### 4/5 — Sound, and Light transcoding generation and decoder

*2022-01-04, version 1.2.5*

It’s got all the basics that allow you to write a text message that can be converted to Mores code as Morse code dots and dashes, Morse code as dots and dashes of sound, as well as through flash’s of light using the screen. You can adjust the word per minute and pitch level of the sound.

### 4/5 — Really good.

*2021-12-06, version 1.2.5*

It works really well, it has an easy interface(which you can customize, by the way) It has the option to speed up, slow down, and change the pitch of the Morse, and if you have memorized Morse, you have the option to flash it with your smartphones flashlight. I rated it four start instead of five because it doesn’t handle punctuation very well. Instead of a comma or something, it will show a frown emoji. I really don’t care, but it might be hard to understand if you are “morsing” something large.

### 1/5 — Bad at translations

*2024-05-12, version 1.2.5*

Using a straight key I can't get it to produce any letters aside from T and E.

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2024-02-03*

Die Audioausgabe gibt keinen Laut von sich. Die Aufnahmefunktion funktioniert leidlich aber nicht sonderlich zuverlässig. Da kann man noch mal Hand anlegen.

### 1/5 — Voila un avis

*2023-08-10*

### 1/5 — No sound

*2023-07-06, version 1.2.5*

Pretty much useless, I need sound clips.

### 1/5 — Senden hui, empfangen Pfui

*2022-12-11*

Das Decodieren von Audiosignalen funktioniert nicht … die App zeigt zwar die Signale an aber nicht dekodierte Zeichen

### 1/5 — The morse code listening feature doesnt work at all

*2022-11-08, version 1.2.5*

It just translates into nonsense

### 1/5 — This does not work for audio

*2021-02-21, version 1.2.5*

Tried to translate audio Morse code to English - did not work.

### 1/5 — What?

*2021-02-03, version 1.2.5*

This app doesn’t work. There is no sound and although the strobe feature is cool, it does not work for translating any text I type,only the preset text. When I try text to Morse, It immediately ends and I see my text at the top in mirror writing. T
Here do not seem to be any other features. I had to uninstall.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2020-11-20, version 1.2.5*

Connected it to two different HF radios, couldn’t decode audio input

Simple, nice UI, and I love their dictionary! Hope this helps ❤️

### 5/5 — FUNCIONA

*2023-12-09*

ME SIRVE PARA ESCUCHA Y PRACTICA.

### 5/5 — Works

*2023-12-01, version 1.2.5*

It works pretty well, especially as my niece has been teaching me a brief chat abbreviations and emoticons, and they actually have that in Morse Code so I like it

### 5/5 — A Second Vital Language for Vital Communications Over The Air

*2023-11-30, version 1.2.5*

You will never know that you need a language that allows you to communicate through various mediums until you find yourself in an environment that you do not know the proper language to be heard.

### 5/5 — Best Morse Code Transmitter

*2023-10-13, version 1.2.5*

The best Morse Code transmitter ever developed

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2023-08-28, version 1.2.5*

One of the features that is most important to me has always been the ability to copy text from the news websites and drop it into the program. I set up four or five top stories of the day and listen to them in the car in Morse as I drive, set about 5 WPM faster than I’m comfortable. Great way to get back in condition for the upcoming contest and to read the most important news of the day. Never gets boring and the content always changes! Next best thing to listening to live QSO’s on the air! Recommended !!!
