Dit teaches Morse code by ear, not by eye. There's no need to memorize a dot-and-dash chart. You hear each character as a sound and tap it back. Characters play at real speed from the start. If they played slowly enough to count individual dots and dashes, you'd do exactly that, and then you'd be stuck translating forever instead of just hearing the letter. The spacing between letters starts generous and tightens as you improve. There are three modes in Dit. Practice walks you through the alphabet and advances when you're ready. Freestyle lets you tap whatever you want and see what it decodes to. Listen plays a character and you type what you heard. The app notices which letters trip you up and brings them back more often. Review Misses just drills your weak spots. It tracks how quickly you recognize each character, so you can tell where you're sharp versus where you're still guessing. Letters are introduced by frequency in real radio contacts, not alphabetically. R, E, A, T, I, N come early, so you're spelling actual words within a few minutes. Works offline. Progress saves on device. Sign in to sync across devices if you want, but you don't have to.

About

Morsenger

Read full description

Morsenger is a complete Morse code toolkit for learning, encoding, and decoding — built for students, history enthusiasts, amateur radio operators, and anyone curious about the language that changed the world. DECODE Listen through your device's microphone to decode Morse code signals in real time. A scrolling waveform timeline shows signal activity as characters are recognized. Import audio and video files (WAV, MP3, M4A, FLAC, AIFF, and common video formats) to decode recorded transmissions. The decoder auto-detects frequency and words-per-minute, adapting to noisy or imperfect signals. Gap-based decoding also recognizes percussive tapping — tap on a desk, table, or any surface and watch your message appear. ENCODE Type any message and hear it rendered as authentic 1970s-style Morse audio. Export recordings in Apple Lossless format or share directly via iMessage. Stealth mode shifts the tone to near-ultrasonic frequencies for transmissions that are virtually inaudible to most listeners. TELEGRAPH KEY An interactive key turns your device into a working telegraph station. Use mouse clicks, touch, or keyboard input to send Morse with real-time audio feedback. Your transmitted characters are decoded and displayed as you key them. GAME Learn Morse code through a hangman-style game with word and phrase modes across multiple difficulty levels. The game draws from a curated library of over 1,500 WWII military messages, making practice both educational and historically grounded. PRACTICE A dedicated practice mode lets you study letter by letter. Tap the play button to hear the correct dit-dah pattern for any character, then build speed and confidence at your own pace.
