Feel Morse code on your wrist. Dits & Dashes turns your Apple Watch Taptic Engine into a Morse transmitter - delivering dots and dashes as haptic taps you can feel, hear, and see, all at once. HOW IT WORKS Type any text on your iPhone. Dits & Dashes converts it to Morse and sends it to your Watch. Every dot and dash arrives as a precise haptic tap, audio tone, and visual flash - independently controllable so you get exactly the combination you want. Silent and discreet in a meeting. Full audio + haptic for learning. All three at once for beginners. FEATURES - Send Morse messages to any local Dits & Dashes user, delivered as haptic taps on their wrist. No sign-up needed. - Haptic Morse Output: Feel dots and dashes on your wrist via the Apple Watch Taptic Engine. Calibrate the haptic patterns on first launch so every signal is unmistakable. - Multi-Modal Output: Haptic, audio, and visual flash modes work independently or together. Turn each on or off from the iPhone companion app. - Deep iPhone Settings: Configure WPM (5-40), dot/dash timing, audio frequency, haptic type per element, Farnsworth spacing, and accessibility timing multipliers. One app serves beginners and 40 WPM CW operators alike. - Morse Translator: Instant text-to-Morse and Morse-to-text translation. Copy output to clipboard. - Share Sheet Exports: Compose a Morse message and share it anywhere: as plain text, dot-dash notation, an audio .m4a file of actual Morse beeps, or a video clip with synced audio and visual flash. Share to iMessage, WhatsApp, Instagram, email — any app. - Watch Input: Tap Morse directly on your Apple Watch. Hold for dash, tap for dot. Decoded text appears in real time. - SOS Mode: One-tap emergency SOS in Morse via all three output modes simultaneously. Accessible from a Watch complication and mappable to the Action Button on Apple Watch Ultra. - Learning Curriculum: Structured lessons with Koch method progression. First 15 lessons free. Practice via haptics on Watch while commuting - no screen, no sound required. - Morse Reference Card: Full A–Z, 0–9, and punctuation reference on Watch and iPhone. Tap any character to hear or feel it instantly. WHO IT'S FOR Ham radio operators: Koch method, Farnsworth timing, iambic keyer types, and WPM precision the CW community demands. Practice on your wrist anywhere, anytime. Learners and hobbyists: Gamified progress through 40 lessons. Share Morse audio and video to social media - mysterious, compelling content your friends will have to ask about. Emergency prep: One-button SOS in Morse via haptic, audio, and light. Offline, always available, no signal needed.
