This is the Morse Codes learning App. You are able to lean the Morse codes by steps. There is a random generation function, you can practice listening of Morse Codes. You can also freely select the volume, playback speed, and playback tone. 1) Reverb function 2) Noise function 3) Added a function to switch between hardware and software for keying waveforms. 4) Added adjustment function (10-step adjustment) for high-speed sound training. 5) Endless generate function The "reverb function" simulates the reverberation of the test site. The "noise function" mutes the noise during actual communication.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: J at none against Morse Learn's shown. J also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Morse Learn's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 13 months) and review sentiment (44% vs 33%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
