Ham Morse allows you to practice morse code on your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch. It is designed particularly for Ham radio operators and others who wish to achieve or maintain a high level of proficiency in this classic mode of communication.
Ham morse has the following features:
The code is sent using the Farnsworth timing whereby the morse characters are sent at 15 words per minute (WPM) and then extra spacing is added to slow the overall WPM to speeds slower than 15 WPM. The farnsworth speed can be adjusted if you wish to use a speed other than 15WPM. The maximum speed that the morse can be sent at is 50 words per minute. The morse audio waveforms have a 5ms rise time to reduce key clicks and yet provide crisp code to copy.
The audio frequency can be varied from 220Hz up to 900Hz. A typical value might be around 700Hz but a lower tone can be very useful in some situations.
The code can be paused just in case you are interrupted or want to take a break, an incoming call on an iPhone pauses the code automatically.
To help you learn the morse code itself HamMorse allows you to practice a variety of sets of characters from individual random letters all the way to the current news stories from around the world.
Koch - This setting uses the Koch character progression. It starts with just one letter and then you can add a new letter when you have mastered the previous character set. This is one of the most popular methods of learning the morse character set.
Letters - Practice the individual letters, A-Z. Add new letters to your practice set using the settings page.
Numbers - Practice the numbers, 0-9. Which numbers you practice can be controlled on the settings page.
Callsigns - allows you to practice receiving random amateur radio callsigns, a mixture of letters and numbers (eg AA9PW, G1SNT, G5RV) that often prove troublesome when copying code on the air. HamMorse creates a wide variety of international callsigns using the standard ITU prefixes to provide useful practice where ever in the world you may be.
Punctuation - provides a wide variety of punctuation and standard morse code prosigns.
Top 100 and 500 most common words - this is a great way to start to recognize whole words the key to really improving your speed.
News feeds - these provide the opportunity to copy real sentences and keep up with the news at the same time. Note that the News feeds will only work with an active network connection.
Ham QSOs - listen to examples of typical on-air exchanges between ham radio operators - practice coping the callsigns, RST reports, location, rig, antenna and many other pieces of a typical QSO.
Accessibility support - The app also has support for Apple's accessibility tool, Voice Over. When Voice Over is activated each button and field has an audible description available describing the button or slider and its use.
Text Delay - As an additional learning aid You can have the text appear a few seconds after the morse code is played so you have time to copy the letter before it appears on screen.
Text Filter - Filter out characters from the News feeds or QSOs that you are not yet familiar with so you can start practicing with real text even if you don't yet know the whole morse character set.

I love this app as i am keen to improve my morse recieving. This app is the best , up until a week ago . Now the app will not load on my iphone xr. I uninstalled and reinstalled but will not work . Dissapointed.

No Audio on my iPhone 11

Metro155 on

Australia

Updated: I’ve since fixed the missing audio issue on my iPhone 11. The app requires the mute switch (on the left side above the volume buttons) to be in the unmuted position otherwise the sound is muted. The app now works perfectly and is now my “go to” Morse training app. “I get no audio on my iPhone 11 with OS14.8. I’ve checked all the settings in the app and the phone and everything indicates it should be working. To test the app I also installed it on my new iPad Air also running OS14.8 and the audio works just fine. Not sure what I’m missing here.”

No audio.

Excellent for Practicing CW Receive

I am working on regaining proficiency in Morse. The range of options available with this app is the best out there. This app can help a beginner learn Morse code, but it can also help those who already know code advance their speed to the next level, from 5 to 50 wpm. I especially love that I can listen to a simulated QSO or even a news report. I can hit play and listen hands-free while doing other things. In my opinion, this is the best Morse practice app (for listening) out there.

I love this program

Have had it from day one, great way to learn code.

First impression of this morse code app is that it doesnt rotate into the landscape view, which I need for the attached iPad keyboard. I either have to view the screen sideways, or type sideways. Cheesh. It is the most expensive app for Morse code training…probably should have made screen rotation available…?

Stops with screen in dark mode

I like to listen with the screen turned off to save power. This is not possible with this app. Whenever I turn the screen off (darken) the app stops working.

Great App

Wil7013 on

United States

It’s perfect from what I can tell in the features, had an issue with the app, developer responded same day fast, was more of a me issue, then an app issue, if your looking for a Morse code app, select this one. it’s worth the small amount of money, will recommend it, when someone is looking for an app. Tons of resources out there, but this is perfect for my needs

Love it! (but has a tiny bug)

Beavertonian on

United States

I love this app. After many ham-inactive years it helped me get my pencil copy from ~12 wpm to 20 wpm. It also helped me fill in some gaps in the punctuation marks. That worked really great. I could turn on just the ones that needed work. Since then I have been working on head copy. It has proved a struggle. I alternate between Morse Code Ninja podcasts at 28 wpm and Ham Morse in QSO mode at 20 wpm. QSO mode is great, too; very realistic. I wish I could set Ham Morse to keep sending when the app is “asleep”, i.e. when the app screen is not displayed. Downcast will do this for podcast listening. It saves battery drain and makes the app immune to inadvertent screen touches. The bug: In Punctuation mode the app will not play the double quote: “ I have tried it with other punctuation marks, and with just the double quote selected. The “ marks show up in the text display, but you don’t hear them. Devices: iPhone 13, iOS 16.4; iPhone 6S, iOS 15.7.3; iPad Pro 10.5, iPad OS 16.3.1
