Morse with your eyes. Blink short for a dit, long for a dah, and Send.Morse turns it into text. Then send your message on as light, sound and vibration. BLINK INSTEAD OF TYPING The front camera follows your eyes, so you can key Morse completely hands-free. Frames stay on your device and are never recorded. SEE EVERY DIT AND DAH Send with the screen flash, the torch, a tone and haptics. The live preview marks the character going out and the exact signal within it. DECODE BY TAPPING ALONG Spotted a flashing light or heard a tone? Tap along on the pad, and Send.Morse turns your rhythm into letters. SOS IN ONE TAP The distress signal starts at once, in full screen. PRIVATE AND TUNED TO YOU Key the word PARIS once and the app calibrates to your rhythm. No ads, no account, no data collected. Also inside: an in-app Morse keypad for writing with dits and dahs, freestyle keying and the full character table. In English, German, Spanish and Croatian.
