Send.Morse is an easy to use application to transmit messages as morse code and decode received light signals in real time back into text. Imagine sitting somewhere in the wilderness. Suddenly you see some mysterious light signals. Is there someone communicating with you? You remember a thing called morse code from your days with the boy scouts but age has faded away some essential basics of this art of communication. No problem anymore – with Send.Morse you have the answer in your hands. To decode some signals you receive from the end of the world simply switch into reveive mode and tap on your iPhone's screen. Your iPhone shows you the received message in no time. It's that easy. Sending a message is as simple as receiving one. Just switch to input mode, type your text with iPhone's keyboard, and press the transmit button. If the secret of dots and slashes – or dits and dahs as we call them – returns to your memory, it's also possible to tap on your iPhone's screen to translate your message into flashing light signals without using the keyboard. You can calibrate your morse pad, so it fits your personal taping speed. Of course we provide a table with all supported signs to you, so you can check if our app is working correctly. This is only for doubters who are still a little bit sceptically about communicating with short and long light signals. ;o) We believe that communication with this old school messenger is lots of fun. So try it out – the proof is in the pudding. Have a look at our video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkisrlMDhrM Available in the following languages: English German Spanish Croatian
