Morse-It App Comments & Reviews
Morse-It Positive Reviews
Most sophisticated CW app by a mileI learned CW on this app, mixed with MorseMania. MorseMania is good for learning straight key and the letter/number quiz is good, but beyond that, Morse-It is the clear winner in the CW iOS game. I have a vband (USB interface device) and connect my key to my iPhone. Inside Morse-It, I set the custom keyboard to left and right CTRL buttons, which is what the vband emulates. Now I have a portable CW trainer. I’ve used it on the airplane, in hotels and on my couch to drill. The use of variables and Macros is what takes the app beyond anything else available. I was able to setup a simple Macro for custom callsigns and can drill them in Koch mode. The developer is active on the forum and helpful. I’m happy to be a paid user!.Version: 11.6
Truly an amazing app if only......the lack of documentation didn’t serve to keep most of it’s awesome features a mystery! It is completely maddening to know there is must be a feature that does this or that only to be left to stumble around in the dark. It is certainly an Apple standard to build a product so well-designed that no instructions are necessary — do you have any idea how much work it is to attain that standard?! You are not even close! Please, please document this application. it is not nearly as much fun as developing a wicked cool app, but I can guarantee it would be the best CW application ever if only people could know what it can and does do! And please, take a look at what text and vids you to have out there — it is most misleading, inadequate, or assumes the user can read your minds..Version: 9.3
Get itI use a paddle interface from Ham Radio Solutions and an iambic paddle from American Morse Equipment with this app. It’s an amazing tool for learning CW. You could easily learn CW with only this app. Highly recommended. Update: The developer is very interactive and very receptive to ideas. I’ve watched this app evolve. It’s so good. I’m doing CW Ops classes and it’s very easy to make macros for all of the material from that course. This allows me to do course work anywhere, any time without having to use a PC app. This app does everything all of those other apps do and more. I could not be happier. I think we’re very lucky to have a learning tool like this..Version: 11.6
Great for practicing listeningThe Koch trainer feature of this app is great, very customizable! There's one weird bug though, whenever it spells "km" (which is common since those are the the first few letters you learn), it reads it out as "kilometers", rather than "km". And if you change the mode to spelling only, it spells it as "K-I-L-O-M-E-T-E-R-S", even more confusingly! Edit: it seems that changing voices away from the system voice is a workaround for this bug. Hopefully that can still be fixed pretty soon, it's one of the best voice options!.Version: 11.5.1
Awesome App!I’m learning Morse and find this app a valuable training tool. I love being on the and use the decoder next to the radio so I can understand what is being coded. Works ok and it does pick up words here and there. But I guess if it’s being coded properly it decodes superbly. The only way to be serious about learning is to force oneself on the air cause that’s when it gets real and all pistons need to be firing on all 12 cylinders LOL. Seen the upgrade features alert about the haptics but clicked the message off before looking to see how to set it up..Version: 9.2
Best App AvailableMorse-it, with its recent changes, is now the best training app for those serious about mastering Morse as a language. There is an in-app option to unlock additional modes. I recommend simply including it in the total purchase price. I feel there are better apps for learning letters, but once you graduate to learning whole words and phrases, this is the app you want. The ability to text others exported Morse audio is also fun (if you have a training partner). This is one of the few apps to support this feature. 73 de N2OW.Version: 8.1.1
By far the best Morse app on any platform.I purchased Morse-It app with my iPhone then put it on my iPad without having to purchase it again, as I expected. Then I purchased the premium upgrade on the phone but I was not getting it on the iPad. I emailed the developer and described the issue. They responded the same day, with instructions to use the restore button on the iPad, it worked. I have tried many Morse apps, some on desktop, this one is by far the BEST app, and customer support. 10 stars..Version: 8.1.1
Could be better.1. Can you add vibrate toggle switch to be able to turn vibration on or off. 2. The decode option doesn’t work properly. There are either delays in the picking up the WPM or it’s deciding too fast leading it to displaying the wrong letter. A smart auto-correct option might be required to were it looks back at the word and autocorrects it for what it needs to be. The haptic feedback still doesn’t appear to be working even after it was turned on. Can this be fixed in the next update? March 2026 Was the vibrate option ever added?.Version: 11.8.2
Great practiceHelps me keep what I’ve learned and fun to just sit and type what’s on my mind. I’m not very good at interpreting the receiving side, I mostly just sit and type and look at the inside of my brain but I bet if I used the tools to help recognize and receive better, it would pay off. I like the ease and availability to just type away and check my work. “The quick red form jumpS over the lazy brown dog.”.Version: 11.6
Best CW Morse app in the App StoreThis is a very functional Morse app. I paid for It; and the subscription. As a new HAM this is well worth the cost. I am actively using the help provided to try to hook my actual hardware key so I can practice. The maintainer seems active and makes updates. This app is for legitimate hams that want to learn CW. It’s not a computer science class project, or money farm. I don’t review apps often, but is worth it because of the niche market..Version: 11.6
Responsive Dev Dedicated to the ProductThe dev responded quickly to my review and educated me about the process to turn off review prompts in iOS (a pet peeve). Francis, you rock! The app is the best in most regards for learning CW. It pairs well with Ham Morse. If you are doing CW Ops, it is great because all of Level 1 is built in. For Level 2, I am making a custom list of words to work on word recognition and review using the Quiz portion of the app. Also, this app is by far the easiest way to make CW ringtones.Version: 8.0.4
Best decoderI use this only for practicing sending CW with the gain on my receiver turn down and only using the side tone. Headphone connected to the radio and the cups over the mike on my iPad. Decodes 100% of what I send at any character speed. I use it to make sure my words do not run together and correct spacing between letters. Just need to send cw a few times to allow the app to sync. I’m currently up to sending 24-26 wpm..Version: 8.1.1
Morse-It to Learn CW - GoodGood program. I couple the app with USB and iPhone lightning adapters along with a paddle key. Really helps practice keying CW and the encoding section helps with reading CW. This has become my primary training and practice method. The only and minor complaint is that the iPhone on screen keyboard isn’t functional with the key attached. There may be other ways to connect the key other than reconfiguring the keyboard. If so, I would like to hear how. Thumbs up!.Version: 11.6.1
PricingI was looking for an app to help learn cw. This had many great reviews for that. I figured for $0.99 I’d give it a try. However, once in the app it becomes clear that it’s actually $8.99 upgrade to do any training/learning. It may still be worth it for that - I’m not sure - I just wish the pricing was more transparent from the start..Version: 11.8.1
Definitely the best App for learning MorseI started tapping on my phone screen before I realized I could pair my Xbox controller! Having a physical, mechanical controller makes a big diffference Buy the extras: 1)Support the app developer and 2)you can find the CWops in some book but to have it built-in and interactive is what learning Morse on an iOS device is about..Version: 9.3
Awesome app!Awesome app. Lots of very useful features. I recently started the CWOPS course and it has the beginner practice sessions included, but using the macro function I added the top 100 common words, state abbreviations, and some W1AW practice transmissions and can use them in the Konch module. Too many features to list, it best app I’ve tried and certainly best I’ve bought..Version: 9.3
Morse on Steroids!!! Only CW app you need.This is a very powerful little app! This allowed my to connect either my straight or iambic paddles to my iPhone via the Vband usb paddle interface from Ham Radio Solutions. My phone now does everything CW through my phone, super convenient and much better learning platform than the other hardware cw trainers like HamCube and Putikeeg..Version: 11.6
A Great CW ToolThis is one of the best CW learning tools anywhere. Whether you’re curious about CW, just want to play around, or serious about learning, this app is a MUST. It has many useful features that will not only teach you the basics but help you build proficiency and beyond. I am a skilled CW op and I use this app almost daily. Great job Dev you nailed this one!!.Version: 11.9
Unbelievable resource for learning CW!I’ve used several apps for learning CW and this one is the best. I’ve used it for making ringtones for most of my contacts. You can make audio files of anything you want tailored to your skill level. You can study anywhere with just your phone..Version: 9.3
Great flexible Morse trainer appReally a robust and great app. Lots of settings to tweak to learning level. Used another app to learn letters then this great app (Morse-it) to gain speed in recognizing characters and practicing straight key. I don’t write many reviews but this app is great and I tried just about all of them in App Store. Highly recommend this app for new Morse learners!.Version: 9.3
What I’ve been looking for!Still a great training tool for sending and receiving. Everything I’ve been looking for in a training tool to learn CW. Update: I have since been practicing with the app and have bought Iambic Paddle along with the IPad controller and they both are a great addition to the app. Thank you!.Version: 11.0.2
Worth the $!I used this app as a companion while learning CW though CW Ops. It really helped me stay on top of studying and allowed for a decent practice option when I wasn’t near a radio. Definitely recommend the app if you’re trying to learn CW. Make sure to check out the CW ops practice option in the app..Version: 9.3
UpdateI figured out how to buy the learning aids without the social club. $8.99 and worth it. When I went to paid App Store figured out I already paid for the upgrade, so not charged an additional/. $8.99.
My
Stable and Well Thought OutI've downloaded a few CW training apps in my on again off again autodidactic quest to master Morse. All the other apps I downloaded (some of them pretty decent) have since disappeared from the Apple Store, but Morse-It is still around. That says a lot..Version: 7.0.1
Great app for learningI’ve used Morse apps dating back to The Mill on DOS and this one is definitely the best I’ve worked with, and has taught me the most. I started with it while taking the CWOps course and have continued to use it to improve my skills..Version: 10.0.3
Generally good design...Comprehensive and adaptable. I like that I can create my own practice lists. The encoding and decoding is fun but not very useful if you already send well. Listening is a different matter and Morse-It does a good job with ear training. I give it four stars only because the interface is slightly clunky. However, the app hasn't crashed on me yet..Version: 8.2.1
Amazing app !!This app is very cool and useful! And also it can be used without the need for internet, I have never regretted that I paid money for it worth every cent I really paid, and I would definitely advise my friends to buy it! , Thanks to everyone who worked on this app ❤️..Version: 9.0.2
Made it easy to learnHaving the decode screen on my phone meant I can practice sending anywhere and anytime. It really made a difference to keep me learning. One of the few apps on my phone I use daily..Version: 10.2
Excellent training aidI'm an old school military CW intercept technician. Cut my teeth on Chinese and Viet Cong tactical military Morse nets. This is a first-class training system, particularly since I can set parameters of all kinds. I recommend this to anyone learning Morse and for us old operators working our receive comprehension upwards from 30-wpm..Version: 7.0.1
GreatGreat way to learn, practice, and train Morse. By typing what you tap, you can practice the patterns AND the timing. The only thing that would make it better if there was an extension for the iPhone keyboard, so you can Morse to a friend (not just an extension like GBoard that uses Morse input to type normal text).Version: 9.0.2
Excellent toolI’ve tried a bunch of programs and methods to learn CW. This is the first one where I see confirmed progress. I set the CWOPS speed to 30-35 and run thru the sections and don’t proceed until I nail the section. I try to use it daily for at least 15 mins. Highly recommend..Version: 8.1.1
Great app for practicing CW!I’ve been using this app to increase my speed in both sending and listening CW. The customizable settings allow me to mimic my paddles on my radio. Now I can practice almost anywhere..Version: 11.0.1
Best Darn CW App Ever!I've used this for all my studies with the Long Island CW Club. It allowed me greater flexibility when cutting and pasting text for CW practice. It does a great job converting from CW to text to audio files. I still use this daily to keep my instant character recognition viable. "Greatest Morse study App, ever!".Version: 9.1
Top Notch Practice ToolI am a CWAcademy student and this has been an invaluable asset on my code-learning journey. I’m also very impressed with the responsiveness of the developer when I had an issue. If you’re learning CW, I highly recommend this app. 73.Version: 8.2.1
AmazingI find the app very simple to navigate and to use, and buying the additional package for learning was well worth it. I learned a lot from this app. 10/10.Version: 9.3
Simply the BestExcellent app with a long history. I can’t imagine any other app would be better. Thanks to the developer for being so responsive..Version: 10.0.1
Love itA full functioning Morse learning environment. I just completed a DYI project to link my key to a Bluetooth device so I can practice sending and recovering without bothering anyone. The program is robust and can cater to your CW needs. It’s a lot of fun. Give it a spin.Version: 9.3
Awesome app!I am coming back to Morse for the second time. Was 13 wpm copy once before but never got the hang of sending. I’m going to get the Ipac and give it a shot. This app seems to have the bells and whistles. I am pleased with it thus far..Version: 9.2.2
As good as advertisedCopies any clean signal from the radio and does a good job with signals with a little QRM too. I copied W1AW at 35 wpm and it didn’t miss a letter. You can enter your own text and it sends it to you perfectly. Well worth a dollar..Version: 9.2
Great training aidI’ve been practicing most every day. I’ve got the letters and numbers down. Still working on my listening skills to have both send and receive skills sharpened..Version: 9.0.2
Excellent AppThis App should be on every phone, it has the potential to save people, in life threatening situations. Being a Nam Vet, I know how important it is to be rescued - this app should be on every phone no matter who the maker is..Version: 9.2
One-Time PurchaseWith a new phone … one-time purchase “restore” is hidden in “Settings” … “Learning Features Only” … then the menu & restore purchase. Morse-It did respond to the review. Thank you for the help..Version: 11.7
Learn Morse on the phoneGets the basic character and groups so you get progressively better at listening.Version: 11.6
Buy the app and support the developer. It’s unreal how many features you get for 0.99 centsDon’t be cheap people...it’s .99 cents and has fantastic features..Version: 9.3
Great Program!I used a variety of app but this one was/is my favorite. —-update—- I’ve used it for a long time now. Still the best app out there!.Version: 9.3
User friendlyThis app is easy to get around. I am a newish ham learning cw so it’s very nice to open it up and start Keying. It seems to me that an experienced ham radio operator took a lot of time designing this to work great..Version: 9.0.1
Di di dit dah dah dahGreat app! It is very useful to learn about Morse!.Version: 11.8.2
Still needs subscriptionI am not saying app is bad, just that apps like this makes me feel deceived afterwards. Either make it free and make the in-app purchase visible upfront or sell a perpetual license for it..Version: 11.9
AmazingUnreal app. Very cool!.Version: 11.8.1
Totally worth it if you want to learn CWExcellent interphase, well thought out. And if you connect it to a key then it’s the most portable way to learn CW on the go..Version: 11.6
Finally, a good Morse app.Title says it all. The App Store is a wasteland of bad Morse learning apps. After an exhaustive search spanning years, this one does it all, and knocks it out of the park. Great value and great design. The additional features are premium but worth it..Version: 11.6
10/10Pour le prix il y a énormément de fonctionnalités.Version: 11.3
Next Version please include Callsigns in the Quiz section choices; ie letters, numbers, Callsigns.Love all the improvements in the recent Version but I find myself going back and forth between the Morse-It app and the Koch app because the Koch app has a random Callsigns choice and Morse-It does not. Please in the next version include Callsigns in at least the Quiz section; throughout Morse-It app would be great. Letters and numbers are good but the true test is when they are together in Callsigns. Thank You Morse-It for a great app and considering my suggestion. 73 de VA7LTX.Version: 11.4.3
Very good practice to regain speedI really appreciate this app, it helps me to get back to speed on my morse and it points my occasionals errors. Great i needed that....Version: 11.0.2
ExcellentGreat tool utilizing multiple teaching methods that will satisfy most learning styles. Thank you for a fantastic product! My one complaint is the move to a subscription service. Like so many other products now, the only way to enjoy them is to commit to a monthly fee, which is out of reach of many people. I wish this decision had not been made as it would allow for more people to enjoy the product in the spirit of amateur radio. 73..Version: 10.0.3
Great app, but lacks users.Amazing tool to learn and practice CW. The games are fun, and the ability to train is good. 73.Version: 10.0.5
Great practice tool!I learned Morse almost 60 years ago and have no real reason to use it BUT it is important to me not to forget it. It could be my lifeline if ever I am unable to communicate any other way..Version: 10.0.2
I wish I found it sooner!This is really the best app for a phone to play extensive sections of text in Morse code. With the capacity of modern devices, an entire book could be pasted into a macro and translated to code. I’ve been listening to poems. The WPM and Farnsworth speeds are adjustable. The default flashing light and dots/dashes can be turned off so only the audio is present. With a bit of hardware it is possible to use the app with your favourite paddle to practice sending. No need to buy a practice keyer..Version: 9.3
Great appUse it often to Morse code Tex messages instead of typing.Version: 9.3
Great for learning MorseCan’t think of any other features it would be :).Version: 9.3
Great AppI use it in class to demonstrate Morse code to my study group at McGill (University) Community for Lifelong Learning. It is very popular.wee.Version: 9.3
The best morse code app I’ve found!I’m thankful it exists. I love “writing” in morse code..Version: 9.2.2

Great teaching and practice tool!Great for learning, and for keeping the skill up. Thanks for a great resource!.Version: 9.0.2
Still amazing year over year!Tried and true year over year.Version: 9.0.2
By Far The BestThis is the most comprehensive and versatile Morse app by far. The paid upgrade is well worth it if you have more than a passing interest in learning/using Morse code. Every other app only does a small fraction of what this can do. I know. I’ve tried most of them..Version: 9.0.2
Great appUsing it to learn Morse for my cW certificate.Version: 8.2
Way coolWell done. Thanks guys!.Version: 7.0.2
Fonctionne très bien.Je l'utilise pour enseigner le morse au louveteaux..Version: 7.0
Great updateNice update. Good uTube video demo too. Great little app and very good interface. Like it a lot. The listen & translate feature works... Worth a look. Hopefully future update we'll get the camera to "see & translate"... That would make it awesome!.Version: 0
Cool!Very good! But would be great if you could make it listen to morse code with the iPhone mic and translate it....Version: 0
Great app. Lots of useful features.Nice nice.Version: 7.0
Great AppGreat morse code tutor program, the Koch method had me copying morse at full speed 20-25 wpm) within a month. Had tried the old increasing speed method to no avail, once you mastered a slow speed you had to learn it all over again at the next speed, very frustrating..Version: 5.0
Know it alreadyOmg i did i book that showed this there was a joke went like this (how do frogs right letters)/i don't know how/(by morse toed).Version: 5.0
AdventurerGreat tool! Thanks for making learning accessible and easy..Version: 5.0
A great app!I haven't touched CW since getting my 12wpm endorsement over 20 years ago. I now find myself tuning around the HF bands and wanting to work CW. I'm using this app to brush up and the app is super! The author thought of everything! Well done! VE3TYG.Version: 5.0
MorseGood program, easy to use and full TSX.Version: 4.2
Brilliant!I am just starting out to learn morse code. This app has helped me to learn the alphabet in 20minutes! It's very cool, and something I've always wanted learn. It's not a conclusive way to learn however as it doesn't give you things to translate back into English. It's a good way to practise using the code..Version: 4.2

Tec_64Thumbs up!.Version: 4.2
Smashing toolGreat practice tool.Version: 4.1
GreatAmazingly fun app, multi functional too.Version: 4.1
Good applicationI like this because it permits me to practice almost anywhere anytime. Robert.Version: 4.1
Fun appEntertaining and amusing.Version: 4.1
Good appIt's good app. It worth 5$ for the koch method. Koch implementation is ok- similar to LCWO. I wish compare results function was implemented better as its hard (not possible)to see were you made a mistake. Tap function is good- nothing to change here. Decoder is ABSOLUTELY useless I tried Sdr through headphones (10% success ) I tried FT-857 speaker S9 signal - no success. Overall 4 star if you buy Koch . P.s I bought ham morse as well - what a waist.!!!.Version: 4.1
Love it!Exactly what I was looking for! An app tha allows me to practice my Morse sending and receiving skills! :-).Version: 4.1
Morse-it V3.0.1For the price, this is a great learning tool, easy to use, you can learn anywhere, beats the day when you needed to be home to pratice CW, Good Job 73`s.Version: 0
HamGreat practice tool..Version: 4.1
Nice AppNot bad please update app will not decode like before..Version: 0
Morse-ItThis is a really great application as others have already commented. It has all of the bases covered except for possibly being able to generate text on the computer and be able to load that information into the iPod for playback as training files. I would like to see that if it could be done smoothly and easily as some of the laptop based Morse instruction packages can do. Anyway, by far the best iPod app for studying Morse so far. Looking forward to any further improvements such as that mentioned. Thanks for the great piece of work. VA7DH.Version: 0
Outstanding!Completely comprehensive..can't imagine any other functions or anything more usable..Version: 0
Great tool for learning MorseIt works, and it has everything you need to learn codes. I gave it a 4/5 because the interface is difficult (impossible) to understand. But all becomes clear if you start trying everything out..Version: 11.10.1
