Ham Morse

This program uses the same methodes as the well known rufzxp and basic training.

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.

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…?

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.

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

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

July 16, 2022 Update. Bug apparently squashed. As per my review ten years ago, although not perfect, this is still the best CW training app available. As I stated in my previous review, I would like to see more emphasis placed on the new characters a person is learning in the CW trainer and les repetition of the characters one has already mastered in previous training sessions. I particularly love the RSS feed feature. I see that in the current version there are now only 10 feeds. I would appreciate it if more could be added at your convenience. Thank you for your quick response and communication in fixing this bug in the latest update. ———————————— Just downloaded the new version on 07-08-2022. Now it just opens and closes while still showing it is running in the background. Deleted app and reinstalled without effect. Used this app for many years. Please fix. TNX

Excellent tool for learning Morse the correct way. I have no complaints or issues what so ever. The app is highly adjustable to your own personal needs. Tone, character WPM and total words per minute rate. You can choose to focus on just letters, numbers, punctuation, or ProSigns, etc. Be sure to read “So You Want To Learn Morse Code” by N1IRZ in the settings tab FIRST! It discusses the Koch method, which is the heart of learning the code. Highly recommend Ham Morse!!!

I’m using this to finally learn Morse and I am enjoying it! It’s perfect for what I need! Only slight gripe is it doesn’t appear updated to support the larger iPhone screen models. But its not a deal breaker for me. Thank you for making this app! 73!
