I love this! Could you make a watch version?

I absolutely love this because it is free and does exactly what I was looking for. But better. I hope to see this on watches because I think that would do very well and I have an arch of my own. 10/10!

FAQ

What does MorseKey do?

MorseKey is a simple touchscreen application that simulates a straight key for sending Morse Code. You can practice sending dots and dashes by touching the screen, with the duration of your touch determining the length of the signal.

What are the key features of MorseKey?

Key features include a touchscreen interface for sending Morse Code, adjustable tone frequency and volume, and an iambic keyer (mode A) with adjustable dot speed for more advanced practice.

Is MorseKey free to use?

Yes, MorseKey is a free application. There are no in-app purchases or advertisements mentioned, indicating it is completely free to download and use.

What devices is MorseKey compatible with?

The application is designed for iPhone and iPod Touch devices. Specific iOS version compatibility is not detailed, but it is available in the iPhone App Store.

How can I learn Morse Code with this app?

This app is designed for practicing sending Morse Code, not for learning the code itself. While it provides the tool to send, you will need to find a Morse Code tutorial elsewhere, such as on Wikipedia or the ARRL website, to learn the character translations.
