Morse Translator
International Morse Code — text ⇄ morse. Includes audio playback, speed control, copy, download and settings.
Text to Morse Code
Just type letters, numbers, and punctuation marks into the top box, and the Morse Code will appear in the bottom box. If a character cannot be translated, a “#” symbol will appear in its place. If you want to learn Morse Code, you can use the training tools to practice.
Morse Code to Text
You can type Morse Code into the top box. Use “.” (dot) for a dot and “-” or “_” for a dash. Use a space between letters and a “/” symbol between words. The translated text will appear in the bottom box. If a character cannot be translated, a “#” will appear in the output.
Sound, Light, and Vibration
The “Play,” “Pause,” “Stop,” and “Repeat” buttons control playback. You can check the “Sound,” “Light,” and “Vibrate” boxes to hear the sound, see the flashing light, or feel the phone’s vibration. The “Configure” button opens advanced options, allowing you to adjust frequency and speed, and switch between “Telegraph” and “Radio” sound styles. The “Flashing Light” and “Save Audio” buttons do not work when “Telegraph” mode is active.
What Is Morse Code?
Morse code uses dots and dashes to represent letters and numbers. Samuel Morse created it in the 1830s for telegraph machines.
Each letter has a unique pattern. The letter “A” is ·− (dot-dash). The letter “S” is ··· (three dots).
