Dit. Dah. And one day the hiss turns into words. Morse isn't another flashcard app with cartoon letters. It's a telegraphy school in your pocket: a course that takes you from zero to head copy, and a proving ground where experienced ops chase their own records. A gentle on-ramp for the newcomer. An honest fight for the veteran. MORSE AI — A NEURAL NETWORK THAT LISTENS WITH YOU Set your iPhone next to the receiver's speaker and the neural network copies the Morse for you: up to 16 stations at once across the whole SSB passband, from 5 to 100 words per minute. It all runs on the device, with no internet. A waterfall shows who is sending where, and under each station the letters roll by with their dots and dashes. Doubtful characters are marked — tap one and fix it from the alphabet. Choose the station's language and the whole copy is reread in its letters. No sound, just a blinking lamp? Point the camera at the light and the code is read from its flashes. NEW TO CW No memorizing the alphabet off a chart. The Koch method hands you two characters and adds the next only when the last ones are solid — you never get bored and never get buried. The app picks today's characters out of the mistakes you made yesterday. Fifteen minutes a day for a couple of weeks and you're hearing letters, not decoding them in your head. ALREADY HAVE A FIST Here's something to measure yourself against. Callsign copying scored the RufzXP way: fifty calls, the speed climbing with every clean one, errors biting into your score. Sending judged the way a contest judges it — an uneven fist and uncorrected characters cost you, not just your speed. Game Center leaderboards put a number on where you stand in the world. And you can run all of it on your own brass, not a finger on glass. AIR THAT DOESN'T GO EASY ON YOU Forget the clean textbook tone. QSB, QRM, QRN, carrier whistles, key clicks, chirp, a buzzy note — and the faster you work, the rougher it gets. You train in the band you'll actually meet, not in a laboratory. YOUR BRASS, IN THE APP Glass will never feel like brass, and we know it. Connect your key through a Bluetooth adapter — straight key, bug, iambic paddles, whatever sits on your desk — and work it right here: practice, take the test, chase records. Iambic auto-repeat behaves the way it should; paddles swap sides with one switch. No adapter? A game controller does the job — two buttons, dit and dah. WHEN THE KEY ISN'T WITHIN REACH The Morse keyboard turns iPhone into a paddle: key your messages straight into any app you type in. The converter turns text into dits and dahs, an audio file or a QR image in a second. Dictation keeps your texts and plays them back at any speed when you want blind copy practice. 37 MORSE TABLES — ANY LANGUAGE, ANY SCRIPT International, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, Arabic, Persian, Hindi, Thai, Japanese Wabun, the Chinese telegraph code and more. Scripts with no table of their own are transliterated for you, so nothing stays silent. Progress and records follow you through iCloud — start on iPhone, carry on at the Mac. Some sections are free. Unlock all features with a monthly subscription or a one-time purchase for lifetime access. The subscription renews automatically until you cancel it in your Apple Account.

CW Keyboard turns your iPhone's keyboard into a Morse code input pad. Instead of a standard QWERTY layout, you type using taps and holds — a quick tap for a dot, a longer hold for a dash — just like sending Morse code (CW) on a radio key. FEATURES - Custom system-wide keyboard — use it in Messages, Notes, Mail, and any app that accepts text input - Built-in Morse Code reference chart covering the full alphabet, numbers, and common punctuation - Simple setup guide to get the keyboard enabled in a few taps - Shift, backspace, space, and return controls alongside the Morse input pad - Full support for Light and Dark Mode WHO IT'S FOR CW Keyboard is great for amateur radio operators practicing their Morse code sending skills, Morse enthusiasts, and anyone curious about learning CW. Get comfortable with dot-dash timing in a low-pressure way, right from the keyboard you already use every day. HOW IT WORKS Tap quickly for a dot, hold a bit longer for a dash. Pause briefly between letters, and the keyboard automatically decodes your taps into text and types it for you.
